Paralympics Day 11 Roundup: China raises its medal tally to 200

China's Liu Yutong and Xu Tingting met in the women's singles WH2 gold medal match. The more skillful 17-year-old Liu won both sets 21-15 to claim her first Paralympic gold medal.

"I played well today," Liu said. "My opponent is relatively strong. It's never easy to play against a teammate. I was able to execute."

Qu Zimo, 19, snatched the gold medal in the men's singles WH1 against South Korea's 51-year-old Lee Dong Seop, winning the first set 21-6. At the half of the second set, Lee announced his withdrawal, making Qu the gold medalist.

"I've tried to play my best game," Qu said. "I never thought I'd become a Paralympic champion. This has been a dream. This is a proof that the eight years I've spent on training are worthwhile."
