PARIS - China's shuttlers maintained an unbeaten streak in all badminton group matches at the 2024 Olympic Games on Sunday.

The top-seeded women's doubles team of Chen Qingchen and Jia Yifan triumphed over Indonesia's Apriyani Rahayu and Siti Fadia Silva Ramadhanti 21-12, 24-22. This victory at the Porte de La Chapelle Arena marked a measure of revenge for Chen and Jia, who had been defeated by Rahayu and her former partner, Greysia Polii, in the Tokyo Olympic final in 2021.

Chen celebrated the victory by kneeling and shouting in jubilation. "We were happy to be in a group with them so that we were guaranteed a chance to play against them," Jia commented, expressing her satisfaction at being able to make up for their previous defeat.

In the men's doubles, China's top seeds Liang Weikeng and Wang Chang also delivered a compelling performance, securing a victory over Britain's Ben Lane and Sean Vendy in three sets, 21-18, 13-21, 21-14. The British pair pushed the match to a decider, showcasing resilience in the second set.
