Of the four finals he entered, three were outside battles, namely men's doubles, women's doubles, and men's singles.
The men's doubles pair is Leung Wei Keng/Wang Chang and Kang Min-hyuk/Seo Seung-jae, Leung Wei Keng/Wang Chang, as the current world No. 1 combination, has played remarkably well this season, but some games have not been played, and the performance is still not stable enough, but the growth has been very fast, and it is very promising to represent China in the Paris Olympics, the opponent is South Korea's new World Championship champion, the two sides have played against each other in the Asian Games, Leung Wei Keng/ Wang Chang missed a game point opportunity at that time, and this match was also a second game miss game point, and finally lost to the game, 17-21/20-22.
After the match, Wang Chang said that he was not decisive enough at that time, and his opponent's performance was more stable than ours, and Kang Minhyuk/Seo Seung-jae said that some mistakes had passed, so I was not too nervous, and mainly focused on facing the next game. At that time, I felt that the Chinese players were in a bit of a hurry, so we kept our rhythm and slowly equalized, so in the end there was a good result.
Seo Seung-jae: Yesterday's mixed doubles match was relatively simple, but my physical strength dropped a little bit, so it's a bit of a pity to lose the match. But there is still a men's doubles match today, so I am determined to play at my level.
Kang Min Hyuk: Because the opponent does a better job of playing the ball in front of the net, we will have more attacks and play more firmly, so we will win the score.
In the final of women's doubles, Chen Qingchen/Jia Yifan vs. Bai Ha Na/Li Zhaoxi, the two sides are already old rivals, they have played each other many times this year, Chen Qingchen/Jia Yifan won more and lost less, after the Asian Games team lost to them, they were continuously suppressed in the back, known as the Li Bai combination, which was very strong and became the strongest rival of the national feather, and even surpassed other Japanese players.
This game was basically controlled by Chen Qingchen/Jia Yifan, although there was a stalemate, but at the end of the game was still dominant, more points were scored after more shots, and there was also a certain advantage in the offensive link, and the state remained relatively stable, and finally the two successfully defended the title 21-16. After the game, Jia Yifan said that he was very happy to return to Hangzhou, and then he could win the championship, and he was very grateful to his teammates.
Li Shaoxi: Today we didn't concentrate on the front of the network, so it was a bit of a mistake, and this is what we need to improve next.
Li Shaoxi: The "Fan Chen" combination is the number one in the world, and they also showed the ability of the world number one today, they are very strong in attack, they play a lot of speed balls, and their physical strength is also very good. I want to play against them again in the next final, and hopefully win against them.
