Key Highlights:
- Championship Match: After losing the first game 14-21, the 26-year-old Assamese shuttler made a brilliant comeback, winning the next two games 21-14, 21-14 to seal victory in a 53-minute battle.
- Tough Road to Glory: Earlier in the tournament, Ashmita pulled off major upsets, including a quarterfinal win against top seed Hina Akechi and a hard-fought semifinal victory over compatriot Rakshitha Sree Ramraj.
