Badminton world number one An Se-young said it was "like a dream" as she retained her Asian Games crown on Tuesday in style, as more rain disrupted events and organisers apologised for the latest transport fiasco.
South Korea's unstoppable An became the first woman badminton player to win two singles titles in Games history after dominating home hope Akane Yamaguchi 21-17, 21-9.
The reigning Olympic and world champion has not lost a match since March and added the Aichi-Nagoya crown to her Games title from China three years ago.
"It really does feel like a dream, I am so happy. Everything I put into it keeps coming back to me, it is overwhelming," said the 24-year-old, who collapsed to her knees and let out a roar after sealing a ruthless victory.
"On the last point I was thinking, please be out. And it really was out. It felt so good."
Kunlavut Vitidsarn became Thailand's first men's singles champion after thrashing Singapore's Loh Kean Yew 21-12, 21-16.
On the final day of athletics, as the rain came tumbling down, EJ Obiena of the Philippines defended his men's pole vault crown with a Games record 5.91m.
There was also a Games and Asian record in women's hammer as China's Zhang Jiale threw 78.27m for victory.
Another Games record fell in the men's 800m, with home fans cheering Japan's Ko Ochiai to gold in 1:44.48.
China came out top in the athletics with 17 golds in all, to Japan's 10 and the nine of Bahrain.
In pouring rain in Shizuoka, a sparse crowd inside the 50,000-capacity stadium used at the 2002 FIFA World Cup saw North Korea reach the final of the women's football with a 2-0 win over China.
The North Koreans will face Japan for gold after they beat South Korea by the same scoreline.
Towards the end of day 10, China maintained their huge lead in the overall medals table with 143 golds.
Japan were second with 44 and South Korea had 24.
Wet weather has drenched the Games since Sunday, another headache for organisers wrestling with complaints from teams about accommodation and transport.
Cricket, tennis and softball were all disrupted to varying degrees for a second day in a row.
Sri Lanka and Bangladesh reached the semi-finals of the men's cricket without a ball being bowled, just like India and Pakistan did a day earlier.
The Sri Lankans will meet reigning champions India and Bangladesh play Pakistan, with both semi-finals scheduled for Thursday.
Organisers are now racing to get the converted baseball field at Korogi Athletic Park ready in time.
In a rare bit of good news for the organisers, better weather is forecast from Wednesday.
"Cricket, like baseball, you can't play it in the rain," said Jarrad Shearer, a senior official for the cricket tournament.
"Come tomorrow morning it will be all hands on deck to dry up the areas that aren't under the covers," he added.
Officials meanwhile apologised after two teams were put on buses to wrong venues.
Teams have consistently complained that buses do not come and leave when they should, or do not turn up at all.
South Korea's men's volleyball players were forced to cancel their practice on Monday morning after an official bus went to the incorrect place.
The Pakistan team were bussed to the wrong arena for their game with Uzbekistan the same day, delaying the start of their match by 45 minutes.
A spokesperson for the local organising committee said the Pakistan and South Korea teams had departed from the same accommodation and there was "an error in matching teams to vehicles".
"Each boarded a bus heading to the wrong destination. We sincerely apologise to both teams for the inconvenience," said Ayumi Sakamoto.
