SINGAPORE: Singapore came close to winning a bronze in table tennis on Sunday.

But Isabelle Li lost in the quarter-finals of the girls' singles event.

Li, who had helped Singapore win a bronze in the mixed table tennis team event, was hoping for a second bronze when she took on North Korea's Kim Song I.

The match was tied 3-3 before the Korean went on to win the final set 11-7.

If Li had gone on to the semi-finals, she would have been assured of a bronze as there is no play-off for third spot in table tennis.
