On April 19, Beijing time, the official platform of the BWF officially announced the latest edition of the world rankings. China's team only won the first place in the women's doubles event by world champions Chen Qingchen and Jia Yifan, and the other four individual events did not qualify for the world first place. In the men's singles, Tokyo Olympic champion and Danish star Acearon topped the list, and Lu Guangzu and Shi Yuqi of the Chinese team missed the top three. Women's singles world number one is Chinese Taipei's Dai Ziying, the recently fierce Akane Yamaguchi is in second place, and China's Chen Yufei is in third place. The Chinese two-pair mixed doubles duo of Zheng Siwei and Huang Yaqiong, Wang Yilu and Huang Dongping were second and fourth respectively.
The men's doubles event was the worst, with none of the pairs making it into the top ten. From the overall world ranking, the Chinese team occupies a certain advantage in the women's doubles, women's singles and mixed doubles events, but the dominance of the men's singles and men's doubles has disappeared, and it is even in a situation of lagging behind. Acelon, who won the men's singles title at the Tokyo Olympics, is currently the world's leading men's badminton champion. However, from the perspective of this season's competition, the competition for the men's singles championship has shown a situation of competing for the deer, and the Chinese team's young player Weng Hongyang won the championship in the Korean Open, Indonesia's Jonatan and Jin Ting, and Japan's Momota Kendou all have the strength to compete for the championship.
Compared with the "Lin Li Competition" era ten years ago, today's men's singles competition is more open. There has not been much change in the women's singles world rankings, with Chinese Taipei's Dai Ziying, Akane Yamaguchi and Chen Yufei occupying the top three, but players such as He Bingjiao, An Xianying and Ma Lin should not be underestimated. Therefore, the championship battle in women's singles is the most unpredictable of the 5 individual events. In the men's doubles, the Indonesian duo of Gideon, Sukamuyo and Ashsan and Hendra occupy the top two, and Tokyo Olympic champions Li Yang and Wang Qilin are in third place.
Guoyu's He Jiting and Tan Qiang, Liu Cheng and Zhang Nan are slightly less powerful overall, and the world ranking is plummeting. In the Paris Olympic cycle, the men's doubles is the biggest shortcoming of the national feather. The women's doubles world number one is Chen Qingchen and Jia Yifan, a women's doubles duo that is the golden sign of the Chinese team. At the Tokyo Olympics, the two drank and hated in the final, but at last season's World Championships, Chen Qingchen and Jia Yifan won the championship strongly, announcing the return of their kings. In the Paris Olympic cycle, the biggest competitor of the Chinese team in the women's doubles event has changed, and the Japanese team has declined.
Instead, the south Korean team's two pairs of Lee So-hee and Shin Seung-joong, Kim Joo-young and Kong Hee-young rose rapidly and became the biggest threat to Chen Qingchen and Jia Yifan. In the mixed doubles event, the Thai team of Dechabo and Sha Xili ranked first in the world, Zheng Siwei and Huang Yaqiong, Wang Yilu and Huang Dongping of the Chinese team ranked second and fourth respectively, and The Japanese team's Watanabe Isa and Higashino Yusa ranked third. In the Paris Olympic cycle, the competition between these four pairs will continue, who can laugh at the end of the Olympic Games?
