Feng Yanzhe/Huang Dongping
Feng Yanzhe/Huang Dongping have been in hot form this season, winning seven titles this season and winning the 750 tournament for the first time at the Denmark Open Badminton Championships, beating their teammate IELTS 2-1.

IELTS Combo
Shi Yuqi 0:2 Axelsen
Shi Yuqi is ranked 3rd in the world and Axelsen is ranked 5th. Shi Yuqi is the national feather men's singles brother, the most optimistic men's singles player after Chen Long's retirement, but due to injuries and other reasons, the results have been tepid. Shi Yuqi has no championship this season, and his best result is the runner-up in competitions such as the Japan Masters. In the group stage of this competition, he successfully qualified for the semifinals with 2 wins and 1 loss. In the semifinals, Shi Yuqi defeated Jonatan 2:0 to advance to the final.
Shi Yuqi
In the first game, after kick-off, Axelsen turned on the offensive mode, firmly controlled the game, and won the first game 21-11 to get off to a good start. In the second game, Axelsen took advantage of the victory to chase after him, forcing Shi Yuqi to make frequent mistakes through the combination of control in front of the net and pulling and hanging, and finally Axelsen won the next game with a score of 21:12 and won the championship of the Badminton Federation Finals.
Leung Wai Keng/Wang Chang 0:2 Seo Seung Jae/Kang Min Hyuk
Leung Wai Hang/Wang Chang are ranked No. 1 in the world, while South Korea's Seo Seung-jae/Kang Min-hyuk are No. 6. The Korean pair and Leung Wai Hang/Wang Chang have played each other for 1 time in history, at the 2023 India Open, when the Liang Wang pair won 2-0. The Leung Wai Hang/Wong Chang duo is the brightest performer in the men's doubles team since entering the Paris Olympic cycle. They have only been together for 18 months and have soared to No. 1 in the world rankings, complementing each other with line control and behind-the-court smashes. This season, the Leung Wai Hang/Wang Chang combination has won the China Open Badminton Championships and the China Masters Championships. In this competition, Leung Wai Keng/Wang Chang won 2 of 3 games in the group stage to advance to the semifinals, and defeated Alfran/Arian 2:1 in the semifinals to advance to the finals.

In the second game, after kick-off, Leung Wei Keng/Wang Chang took a 6:4 lead, but unfortunately was overtaken by the Korean combination with a wave of 6:0 scoring climax into the technical interval. In the second half, Leung Wei Keng/Wang Chang played a wave of 7:0 scoring climax, and took the lead to get the game point 20:16. It's a pity that the Korean combination scored a wave of 6:0 climax, and the Wang Liang combination lost another game 20:22, and finally lost 0:2 to the Korean combination and became the runner-up.

After returning to the court, the Fan Chen combination played a wave of 7:0 scoring climax by accelerating the attack, and finally won the first game 21:16. In the second game, the Fan Chen combination took advantage of the victory to chase and took a 3:0 lead at the beginning. Although the South Korean pair tried to speed up the counterattack, it was a pity that the game was firmly controlled by the Fan Chen combination, and the Fan Chen combination took an 11-6 lead in the first half and entered the technical break.
