Great Britain was composed of Kelly Fisher, Jayson Shaw, and Darren Appleton.Amit made it 1-0 to the Philippines after a 4-3 triumph over Fisher in the women&#x27;s singles, and Biado defeated Shaw with the same scoreline in the men&#x27;s singles for a 2-0 lead.Amit and Chua then conspired for a 4-1 demolition of Fisher and Appleton in the mixed doubles to put the finishing touches on the Philippines&#x27; unbeaten run in the tournament. It was sweet redemption for Biado and Amit, who were part of the silver-medal winning team of 2014, when they lost to China in the final.&quot;It feels amazing to be champions. We’re, we’re very, very happy, and very and relieved. Finally, no more matches, we can rest and just enjoy it and enjoy Austria and Klagenfurt!&quot; said Amit. &quot;Last time, we placed second, and now, we are finally the champions. I am very happy that I have Johann and Carlo as my teammates because they are awesome, they are very good players.&quot;&quot;Finally we made it. My job was to win in this event and with my team, and I want to thank them because we all played well. We have to celebrate now,&quot; said Biado.On the road to the finals, Team Philippines defeated Poland,3-1, in the quarterfinals, then outlasted Germany, 3-2, in a shootout in the semis. -- Marlon Bernardino
