Wang\u2019s signature loud cheer and fist pump after dominating a thrilling rally would quickly be followed by a frustrated shout after a missed opportunity.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"16\">Kuai showed incredible resilience, saving championship point twice, and pushing Wang to a phenomenal rally where both players were seemingly miles away from the table. Ultimately, Wang&#8217;s nerve held firm, giving her one last shot\u2014an opportunity she coolly converted to secure the title.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DSPrLvRgn5g\/\"><p>&nbsp;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async defer src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"17\">The victory earned Wang Manyu a winner\u2019s cheque of $80,000 USD and 1500 crucial ITTF Table Tennis World Ranking points.

During the match, although I took the lead twice, she fought back and levelled the score each time.
