In the badminton World Championships, although Chen Qingchen and Jia Yifan, as a pair of aces of the national feathers, defeated a pair of old Korean opponents 2-1 and finally stood on the women's doubles championship podium, but their teammate Chen Yufei was not as lucky as they were, although in the semifinals, she defeated Dai Ziying, who has always maintained a clear record advantage over her, but stood on the field of the women's singles championship battle for the first time at the World Championships, Chen Yufei faced attacking players from Japan, and now the world's no. 1 Akane Yamaguchi. Unable to play to his advantage in the third set of the game, he was completely played by the opponent and eventually lost 1-2, missing the opportunity to achieve a Grand Slam. The scores of the three sets of the two sides were 12-21, 21-10 and 14-21, it can be said that This game Chen Yufei is the closest to his Grand Slam, but unfortunately in the end, he failed to achieve such a great feat.
Of course, in the previous 21 meetings between the two sides, Akane Yamaguchi took the lead in the record with 13 wins and 8 losses, but Akane Yamaguchi did not make a breakthrough in the Olympic Games held locally, but let Chen Yufei seize the opportunity to achieve the summit. To some extent, Akane Yamaguchi may play other players and cannot occupy a particularly obvious advantage, but her style of play can be inhibited by Chen Yufei's playing style. In this game, the reason why Chen Yufei lost the ball and failed to complete the most critical summit can be said to be mainly lost in three aspects. Here we can make a brief analysis:
The first aspect is that Chen Yufei's physical strength and energy are obviously inferior to his opponents in this decisive battle. It can be said that in the semi-finals, in the process of her victory over Dai Ziying, both sides fought very hard, and also consumed a considerable amount of physical fitness, so when they came to the final field, Chen Yufei, who originally had no physical strength, faced with the all-round mobilization of Yamaguchi Akane in the first and third sets, which clearly reflected the lack of physical fitness, and some weaknesses in energy could not keep up with the rhythm, and Yamaguchi Akane won 2-0 in the semi-finals, it can be said that her entire promotion process is relatively easy, This also created the conditions for Akane Yamaguchi to easily defeat Chen Yufei in the final and bring the game into his own rhythm.
The second aspect is that as Yamaguchi Akane, although her performance in the Olympic Games is slightly different from Chen Yufei' performance, Chen Yufei's overall performance in the world's top competition field is still worse than Yamaguchi Akane, and in the World Championships, Yamaguchi Akane is also more adaptable than Chen Yufei, and the results obtained are more prominent. Chen Yufei also made some mistakes in the use of some key technologies and the use of tactics, and some problems occurred, resulting in a short circuit in the third set, and finally had to accept the result of regretting the exit. In the middle of the year, he has reached the finals of various key competitions six times, but only once has stood on the championship podium, which also shows that Chen Yufei's ability to play the final is still lacking.
The third aspect is that for Chen Yufei, there are obvious problems in the attack in the key innings. That is to say, in the third set of this game, under the premise that the physical strength and energy, coupled with the tactics are not properly handled by the other side, Chen Yufei himself has too many mistakes, too many uses to pull off, failed to firmly attack the opponent's straight line, and continuously pushed the backfield through the backhand. The overall tactics can be said to be somewhat conservative, so that it is insufficient in terms of offensive ability, and it is completely suppressed by Akane Yamaguchi, and the wind speed on the field and the adaptability of the stadium are also more conducive to the play of an active player like Akane Yamaguchi. Looking at the whole game, Akane Yamaguchi was able to win the championship in the end, which was also due to strength.
Of course, Chen Yufei now, in the face of various competitions, tenacious style, dare to grind with the other party, is indeed a major advantage of her, and she is not technically active enough in some key competitions, which is often related to her long-term injury and illness. But if she can strengthen in the active attack, I believe she will continue to make breakthroughs in performance. We also hope that Chen Chenfei will learn from his failures and continue to work hard for the opportunity to stand on the podium of the World Championships in the future. Looking forward to her further breakthroughs for herself and the day when she achieves a Grand Slam, the day will come soon.
