On Sunday, January 21, Tai Tzu Ying, a prominent badminton player from Chinese Taipei, defeated Chen Yu Fei, the current Olympic champion, in straight sets, 21-16, 21-12, to win the women's singles title at the India Open 2024 tournament. This was Tai Tzu Ying's 32nd title. She previously lost in the Malaysian Open championship match.
During the entire tournament, Tai Tzu Ying won all of her matches in straight sets without dropping a single set.
