The ongoing Korean Badminton Masters has been withdrawn one after another, and the top seed in women's doubles, the South Korean duo Lee So-hee / Shin Seung-joon, withdrew before the match! Soon, The national feather xinke men's singles champion Weng Hongyang also withdrew! The reason is unknown!
In the last Korean Open, many of the main players of the national feather did not participate, but the men's singles brought a surprise, and Weng Hongyang, who flew from China to South Korea in a hurry, counterattacked and won the championship, which was the first open men's singles champion of his career. Weng Hongyang is very happy to win the championship, "I am very grateful to the team and coach for helping me over the years and giving me a valuable opportunity to participate." I will continue to work hard to make the national feather men's singles better. ”
Coming to the Korea Masters, Weng Hongyang's performance was expected, but unexpectedly, he actually temporarily withdrew. As for the reasons, it is not clear.
Some fans encouraged Weng Hongyang, "Weng Zai, rest well, the back game is still very important, as long as it is not injured!" ”
Because of the men's singles championship in the last race, Weng Hongyang's ranking soared 67 places to the current 89th place, and now in the national team, Weng Hongyang ranks 8th in the men's singles, and the top 7 are Chen Long, Shi Yuqi, Lu Guangzu, Huang Yuxiang, Zhao Junpeng, Sun Feixiang and Li Shifeng.
Next, Weng Hongyang will rest and adjust to prepare for the Asian Badminton Championships from April 26 to May 1, in the Philippines. Starting this year, the Asian Championship will be upgraded from Super 500 to Super 1000, and the points of the winners will be increased by 12,000 points, comparable to the All England Championship, the Indonesia Open and the China Open.
In addition to Weng Hongyang's retirement, the top seeds of the women's doubles, Li Shaoxi/Shen Shengzhang, also withdrew. The South Korean combination is still the favorite to win the championship, and the unexpected withdrawal is regrettable.
It is worth mentioning that at the Asian Championships at the end of this month, Guoyu is mainly played by newcomers, especially singles, the men's singles 4 are Sun Feixiang, Li Shifeng, Weng Hongyang, Lei Lanxi, the women's singles, the Olympic champion Chen Yufei is absent, He Bingjiao leads Wang Zhiyi, Han Yue, Zhang Yiman 4 people to play.
