TOKYO : Hong Kong's Lee Ho Ching, Doo Hoi Kem and Minnie Soo Wai Yam secured bronze at the women's team event on Thursday after a close 3-1 win over the German team.
German pair Shan Xiaona and Petrissa Solja took a lead against Hong Kong's Lee and Doo in the opening doubles match, prevailing 3-1. "Once isolation is over, I'd dash straight back home to my family and have a meal with them," 24-year-old paddler Doo said. "We are very disappointed... Hong Kong were strong today, and we also think that they deserve the medal," said Germany's Solja.
