On the afternoon of April 12, Beijing time, in the men's doubles 1/4 finals of the 2024 Badminton Asian Championships, the national badminton men's doubles team lost 0-2 (14:21, 15:21) to the Malaysian pair Xie Dingfeng/Su Weiyi.
Dramatically, just over an hour later, Chinese Taipei's Men's Doubles Li Yang/Wang Chi-lin lost 1-2 (21-19, 19-21, 19-21) to Wu Shifei/Izudin. In this way, the Tuou combination won the Olympic qualification, and it was really a gold ingot!
In fact, the Tuou combination has suffered an Olympic ticket crisis more than once: at the Swiss Open, the biggest rival of the Tuou team's Olympic ticket competition, the Scud pair, unexpectedly lost 0:2 to the dark horse pair Ryan/Wendy in the final, missing a great opportunity to chase the points, and this Asian Championships, they lost 1:2 to the Thai pair Supak/Gitinupong in the first round, completely losing the opportunity to catch up with Tuou.
Originally, Chinese Taipei's Li Yang/Wang Chi-lin and Guo Yu were expected to surpass Tuou in Olympic points, but any withdrawal from the tournament meant that Li Wang missed the semi-finals and sent Tuou to the Paris Olympics. With so many people crowdfunding to help, it's really bullshit, and nothing can stop it! It seems that the Tuou group wants to invite people to dinner, and this expenditure is really not a small number!
Although he qualified for the Olympics without danger, Tuou's state was really not flattering, and in the face of Xie Dingfeng/Su Weiyi, he was confused and could be called a complete defeat.
