Historic win for Anita to become first non-Chinese national champion

IPOH: Anita Raj Kaur, who is still under probation in the national team, staved off a determined challenge from 15-year-old Lydia Cheah to become the new women's singles national champion in the National Badminton Grand Prix Finals at Indera Mulia Stadium yesterday. 

The 18-year-old debutant, however, did not have it easy against Lydia, the youngest women's singles finalist ever.
