Kuala Lumpur, May 12: Holland might have been the earliest team to get acquainted with the competition venue but that hardly helped their Uber Cup cause as South Korea won the Group B encounter  with a 5-0 margin tonight.

Top Dutch women's player Judith Meulendijks was the most valiant opposition in the opening first singles match when she stretched Kim Ji-hyun to three games, taking a total of 61 minutes.

However, she eventually tired out and had to concede defeat to Ji-hyun with a 11-4, 4-11, 9-11 score.

The Dutch challenge virtually crumbled after that as the South Koreans notched easy victories in the rest of the matches.

Lee Kyung-won won defeated Karina De Wit 11-1, 11-3 next before first doubles pair Lee Hyo-jung-Yim Kyung-jin gave the South Koreans an unassailable 3-0 lead.

They defeated Holland's Nicole Van Hooren-Lotte Jonathans 11-3, 11-5 in only 16 minutes, definitely one of the shortest matches of the tournament.

Third singles player Kim Kyeung-ran and second doubles pair Lee Kyung-won-Chung Jae-hee completed the clean sweep for South Korea when they won both their matches in similar straight games fashion.
