Taipei City | Young Indian shuttler Tanvi Sharma stormed into the women's singles final of the Taipei Open Super 300 with a straight-game victory over Chinese Taipei's Huang Yu-Hsun here on Saturday.

The 17-year-old from Punjab, who finished runner-up at last year's US Open Super 300, outclassed Yu-Hsun 21-17 21-11 in a one-sided semifinal that lasted just 33 minutes.

The Junior World Championships silver medallist will take on either compatriot Unnati Hooda or Vietnam's sixth seed Nguyen Thuy Linh in Sunday's title clash.

Tanvi, who was part of India's gold medal-winning squad at the 2024 Badminton Asia Team Championships, has enjoyed a rapid rise over the last two years.

Besides finishing runner-up at the Odisha Masters Super 100 and Guwahati Masters Super 100 in 2025, she has won the Bonn International in 2024 and the Denmark Challenge in 2025.
