THE QUEEN IS BACK ON THE THRONE. 6TH WORLD TITLE FOR THERESE KLOMPENHOUWER.

She was the only European on the podium in Cartagena with 3 Asian behind her: the Korean Kim Ha Eun (silver), bronze for Choi Bo Mi (Korea) and Nguyen Thi Lien (Vietnam). The road to the gold medal was not without risks: in the last 16 she was behind 26-21 against the Greek Litsa Mavridoglou but managed to win 30-26 in 33. Then she outplayed her compatriot Karina Jetten in the quarters (30-11 in 20) and the Vietnamese Nguyen in the semifinal (30-13 in 39); she finally won the last match 30-25 in 27.
Gulsen Degener and Karina Jetten were the other European best ranked finishing 5th and 7th.
