On April 12, the 1/4 finals of the Badminton Asian Championships continued. Before today's competition, 9 of the 10 quota places in 5 events have been obtained, only the men's doubles did not have two pairs to participate, but although Liu Yuchen/Ou Xuanyi lost to the Malaysian pair in today's competition, due to the Chinese Taipei pair Li Yang/Wang Chilin also lost, Liu Yuchen/Ou Xuanyi qualified for the Olympic men's doubles, and they will compete in the Olympic men's doubles competition with the other pair of the national team, Liang Weihang/Wang Chang.
Liu Yuchen/Ou Xuanyi faced Malaysian world champions Xie Dingfeng/So Wei Yi in today's match, Liu Yuchen/Ou Xuanyi did not play well and lost 0-2. In this case, Olympic champions Chinese Taipei's Li Yang/Wang Chi-lin could knock Liu Yuchen/Ou Xuan Yi out of the Olympic quota if they win the Asian Championships, but they lost to Malaysia's Wu Shifei/Izuudin in the first game to send Liu Yuchen/Ou Xuanyi to the Olympics.
In addition, today's national feather women's singles ushered in a big explosion, Wang Zhiyi defeated Japan's Aya Ohori 2-1, He Bingjiao and Han Yue both completed the upset, they defeated the women's singles BIG4 South Korea's An Seying and Japan's Akane Yamaguchi, if Chen Yufei can beat Indonesia's Mariska, the national feather women's singles will sweep the Asian Championships semifinals.
In any case, for Liu Yuchen/Ou Xuanyi, despite the thrilling arrival of the Olympic quota, they have finally won the quota, and I hope they will adjust well during this time and prepare for the Thomas Cup and the Olympic Games in the future.
