Indonesia finally ended an almost two-decade wait to lift the prestigious Thomas Cup after beating defending champions China 3-0 in the finals at the Ceres Arena in Denmark on Sunday.

The last time Indonesia won the trophy was in the 2002 edition in Guangzhou, China, when they beat Malaysia 3-2.

This is despite Indonesia being the most successful team in the tournament’s history with 13 titles.
