In the first women's doubles, the Korean pair Lee Shao-hee and Baek Ha-na faced Japan's Naomi Matsuyama and Chiyo Shida, the Korean pair ranked No. 2 in the world and the Japanese pair ranked No. 4, both of which are among the best women's doubles players in the world, and the Korean pair defeated their opponents again after the group stage 2:1 to advance to the final, with the scores of 21:17, 18:21, 21:18 in three games, and the game took 121 minutes.
In the second match, China's Liu Yuchen and Ou Xuanyi faced South Korea's Seo Seung-jae and Kang Min-hyuk, who only fought off for 37 minutes before losing 13-21 and 12-21.
The third match was also a Chinese player, women's doubles world No. 1 Chen Qingchen and Jia Yifan, of course, their opponents were also from China's Liu Shengshu and Tan Ning combination, but in the end, it was the world's No. 1 Fanchen combination with superior skills, 21:12, 21:15 to beat Liu Shengshu and Tan Ning combination, and successfully reached the final.
The fourth match is another Chinese pair of men's doubles, they are the world No. 1 Leung Wei Keng and Wang Chang, the opponent is the former world No. 1, Indonesia's Alfran and Ardianto, the two sides also played three games, the fierce competition can be imagined, but in the end it was Leung Wei Keng and Wang Chang who won the final victory, defeating the opponent 2:1, the score of the three games was 22:20, 12:21, 21:16.
The fifth match was a women's singles match, against Chinese Taipei Tai Tzu Ying and the current world No. 1 South Korean player An Se Ying, as a result, Dai Tzu Ying won two games in a row to reverse An Se Ying after losing one game first, especially in the deciding game was 10:19 behind to achieve a comeback, so that fans on both sides were emotional.
The sixth game is also a women's singles matchup, the interesting thing is that both are Olympic champions, they are China's Chen Yufei and Spain's Ma Lin, as a result, Chen Yufei lost to the opponent 1:2 again after losing to Ma Lin in the group stage and missed the final, the Chinese women's singles are all out, and the scores in the three games are 17:21, 21:19, 13:21.
The seventh game is the Chinese men's singles Shi Yuqi against Indonesian player Jonatan, I thought it would be a fierce and exciting game, but I didn't expect Shi Yuqi to sweep Jonatan 2:0, the scores were 21:16 and 21:15, which was indeed a bit unexpected.
The eighth game was a Danish men's singles civil war, the world's No. 1 Anselm accepted the challenge of teammate Antonsen, but in the first game Anselon only let Antonsen score 9 points, which was indeed a bit ruthless, and the second game could not resist Anselm's strong attack, and finally ended hastily with 9:21 and 14:21, the gap is indeed a bit big.
The ninth match is a high-profile mixed doubles showdown, the world's No. 1 Zheng Siwei and Huang Yaqiong against the Korean pair Seo Seung Jae and Choi Yoo Ji, both pairs are very popular, especially Cai Yoo Ji, who has a large number of fans in China, looks fresh and beautiful, and has a good personality! Of course, they also played one game in the group stage, and it was a narrow road to meet again, but the result was a bit unexpected for us, the IELTS combination not only defeated the opponent in two games, but also allowed the opponent to score 17 points in two games, the scores were 21:12 and 21:5, I began to feel a little pitiful!
The finale is still the mixed doubles combination of the Chinese team Huang Dongping and Feng Yanzhe, the opponent is Japan's only remaining seedlings Yuta Watanabe and Arisa Higashino, the interesting thing is that they also played in the last round of the group stage, so this time in the semi-finals, is the Phoenix combination double kill them or their revenge successful? The result is that the Phoenix combination has the last laugh, and the thrilling victory over the Japanese combination and the IELTS combination 21:19 and 23:21 is successful, and the Chinese team locks the championship of the mixed doubles event in advance!
The above are all the results of the semi-finals of this year's BWF Finals, for reference only!
