KORAT, Thailand: Olympic champion Taufik Hidayat won gold at the SEA Games here Friday, and Indonesia had a clean sweep of all seven medals in the competition. Hidayat beat Singapore's Lee Yen Hui Kendrick 21-15, 21-9 after quickly taking control. He raced into an 8-2 lead, testing his opponent with deep shots and deft play at the net and he sealed the first game with an overhead smash.
The second game followed a similar pattern, with the Indonesian superstar rarely looking troubled. "I'm happy because I won the gold medal for Indonesia and I'm happy with my performance," he said. Hidayat was at the centre of controversy on Wednesday when an umpire ordered him from the side of the court to the stands after he accused officials of trying to aid a Thai player. The Games have been overshadowed by claims of unfair judging by Thai officials. Indonesia also took the men's and women's team golds earlier in the week. In men's doubles final, Singapore's Hendra Wijaya and Hendry Saputra lost to Indonesia's Markis Kido and Hendra Setiawan 21-17, 21-12. - AFP/ac
