In an exciting match at the Singapore Open 2022, Anthony Sinisuka Ginting emerged as the victor, denying Loh Kean Yew and the home crowd the opportunity to witness a local finalist after 12 years. Ginting, ranked sixth in the world, secured a straight games victory, with a scoreline of 21-17, 21-14 in just 37 minutes. This win marks Ginting’s return to a final after a long wait since his victory at the 2020 Indonesia Masters.
Ginting’s game plan was clear from the start – not to let Loh dictate the match. As both players are known for their speed, Ginting focused on neutralizing his opponent’s strengths while taking the initiative in attacking and maintaining patience. Loh seemed to struggle under the weight of the crowd’s expectations, which Ginting understood all too well.
