This season, An Xiying's form has reached its peak, winning 8 BWF Tour titles, the women's singles championship at the World Championships, and the women's singles championship and women's team championship at the Hangzhou Asian Games. In terms of playing style, An Xiying is more restrained than Dai Ziying, An Xiying's defense is airtight, Dai Ziying is an offensive player, and there will be relatively more mistakes, especially when facing An Xiying. The first game of the women's singles semifinals illustrated this very well, Dai Ziying's personal mistakes were very well controlled, but in the case of a 19-18 lead, Dai Ziying just couldn't penetrate An Xiying's defense, and fell into a continuous multi-shot battle with An Xiying, and finally lost three points in a row to lose a game 19-21.
According to the analysis, Dai Ziying will be more difficult in the second game, the physical fitness itself is not as good as An Xiying, plus the first game has just experienced a hard battle and has not won, morale is also down, An Xiying scored points in a row to establish a 5-0 lead at the beginning of the second game, but Dai Ziying is very tenacious to chase 8-9 only one point behind, An Xiying made timely efforts to score two points in a row 11-8 lead into the intermission, after returning to the game, Dai Ziying returned the ball out of bounds, An Xiying expanded the advantage, Dai Ziying chased two points in a row, An Xiying stabilized the situation, Dai Ziying again made efforts to score 7 points in a row 18-13 in the case of 11-13 behind, An Xiying failed to chase points, Dai Ziying 21-15 to get back a city, it is not easy!
In the deciding game, An Xiying played more fiercely, establishing a 10-3 lead early, Dai Ziying chased two points in a row before exchanging venues, and An Xiying led 11-5 into the intermission. After the break, Dai Ziying chased three points in a row to chase 8-11, but Dai Ziying's three consecutive return errors ruined her momentum of chasing points. However, Tai Tzu Ying was extremely tenacious, saving 4 match points in a row and miraculously reversing 22-20! After losing one game and then winning two games in a row, she knocked out the world No. 1 An Xiying 2-1 and took the lead in the women's singles final.
