On December 17, Beijing time, the World Badminton Championships continued, and each individual event decided the quarterfinals. The good news came from Guoyu, the women's singles trio advanced to the quarterfinals, He Bingjiao and Han Yue will have a direct dialogue in the 1/4 finals, and Guoyu is equivalent to locking a top four seat in advance. In the men's singles field, Lu Guangzu was out, and Zhao Junpeng advanced to the quarterfinals. In the men's doubles arena, He Jiting/Tan Qiang eliminated Olympic bronze medalist Xie Dingfeng/Su Weiyi and advanced to the quarterfinals.
The National Mixed Doubles collective missed the round of 16, and the other four individual events retained the hope of competing for the championship. The best result is undoubtedly the women's singles, with four players playing in the quarter-finals, resulting in 3 wins and 1 loss. He Bingjiao defeated Denmark's Mia 21-13, 21-10 to easily advance to the quarterfinals. In the quarter-finals, He Bingjiao played against Han Yue, who eliminated Li Wenshan 21-19 with two. The quarter-final staged the national derby, which also means that the national team has locked up a place in the women's singles semifinals in advance.
Zhang Yiman also played well, eliminating South Korea's Kim Jia-eun 21-16, 21-19 to advance to the women's singles quarterfinals of the World Championships for the first time. Wang Zhiyi and South Korea's Ahn Seok Ying fought in three sets, and finally lost 21-17, 20-22, 19-21, and missed the quarterfinals. However, Wang Zhiyi has shown her potential, and it can be said that the future can be expected.
In the men's singles arena, The National Feathers won one and lost one. Zhao Junpeng played 86 minutes and eliminated Nguyen Il 21-19, 19-21, 21-18 to advance to the quarterfinals. Previously, Zhao Junpeng could only be said to be a substitute player for the men's singles of the national feather, but now he has singled out the beam and become the only remaining national feather player in the men's singles final eight. Lu Guangzu failed to continue his strength and lost to Sirikant 10-21, 15-21 and was eliminated.
In the women's doubles field, Guoyu also won one win and one loss, Chen Qingchen / Jia Yifan eliminated Hongdrich / Cai Wanting 21-11, 21-17, and easily advanced to the women's doubles quarterfinals. Li Wenmei / Zheng Yu fought hard in three sets, losing to the Japanese combination of Iwanaga Suzu / Nakanishi Takaei 12-21, 21-17, 18-21, and missed the quarterfinals.
The men's doubles duo created a cold goal, facing olympic bronze medalist Xie Dingfeng / Su Weiyi, He Jiting / Tan Qiang in the case of losing a set first, to reverse the opponent 17-21, 21-14, 21-16, to advance to the quarterfinals, which is surprising.
Next, the quarter-finals of each individual event are in full swing. On Guoyu's side, in addition to the derby battle between He Bingjiao and Han Yue, Zhang Yiman will challenge Indanong, while Zhao Junpeng's opponent is Lakshya. In the doubles arena, Chen Qingchen / Jia Yifan vs. The Japanese duo of Naomi Matsuyama / Chiyo Shida, this is a strong dialogue. And the opponent of He Jiting/Tan Qiang is still a Malaysian player, that is, Wu Weisheng / Chen Weiqiang.
In addition, there are many peak matches in the quarterfinals, such as Sindu vs Dai Ziying, Akane Yamaguchi vs An Xianying, Andong Sen vs Li Zijia. Japan also has several derbies in the doubles arena that deserve attention. I hope that several of our players can play their best, strive to continue to move forward, and launch an attack on medals and even championships!
