David wins to make it 200 for Malaysia

DOHA, Dec 14 (Reuters) World number one Nicol David stormed to Asian Games gold today, beating Hong Kong's Chiu Wing Yin 9-0 9-3 9-3 in 30 minutes for Malaysia's 200th gold in Games history.

''It was a good match and I feel really ecstatic. It was the last day of the last tournament of the year and there was so much pressure on both girls leading into the game,'' David said.

''It has been a great year and a great way to finish off by winning here.'' Chiu was magnanimous in defeat.

''She is so much better than me. Her speed and strength were superior, so I couldn't perform to my full potential,'' she said.
