In badminton, a new sport added to the Tokyo Paralympics, China won three golds, two silvers and one bronze after the three-day competition.

Yang Qiuxia, the 2019 world champion, beat Japan's Ayako Suzuki in the women's singles SU5 gold medal match on Saturday. After winning the first set 21-17, Yang finished the second set 21-9 to give China its first Paralympic badminton gold.

"My mentality was good, and my performance was better than I expected," she said. "I felt the pressure, but I tried to treat it like a group match. I didn't want to regard it as a final and get more nervous."
