Fighting tooth and nail, the world No. 11 beat his 25th-ranked opponent 21-11, 15-21, 22-20 at the Centro Deportivo Municipal Gallur on March 31 for his third Badminton World Federation World Tour crown. Including major Games and lower-tier international tournaments, this is Loh’s ninth win in 20 finals.
Loh looked nervy in the decider at first with an unsuccessful challenge, but found his range with a 461kmh smash and delicate drop shots to lead 11-7 at the interval. With considerable attention on his title drought, Loh gave ST a glimpse of his mental toll, saying: “The dry spell hasn’t been easy and coach Kelvin Ho gave me an important wake-up call to improve on my fighting spirit after I lost in the first round of the Swiss Open.
