2023 Southeast Asian Games Table Tennis results, medal winners, & heartbreak of Malaysia
After winning the men’s team event at the 2023 edition in Phnom Penh on Thursday, Singapore has continued its dominance in table tennis at the Southeast Asian Games with a masterclass in the men’s team final against Malaysia. To reclaim the men’s team championship they last took home in 2015, the Singaporeans defeated northern rivals Malaysia in the final with a straight 3-0 victory.
The Singaporeans put forth a valiant effort in a match that they were heavily favored to win under the leadership of 2020 Tokyo Olympian Clarence Chew. Singapore was undoubtedly fresher for the final after Malaysia’s exhausting 3-2 semi-final victory against Vietnam late on Wednesday. Even though their Causeway opponents did their utmost to put Singapore under strain right away, the outcome was hardly in doubt.
Thailand defeated Malaysia 3-0 as they successfully defended their women’s team championship. Suthasini Sawettabut, Jinnipa Sawettabut, and Orawan Paranangโall returning gold medalists from the SEA Games in 2021โwon their individual matches to give Thailand its second consecutive victory in that competition.
