On the evening of April 28, Beijing time, the 2024 Tongyou Cup ended the second day of the competition, and the top four seeds of the Uber Cup have all started "experiments" in doubles and have changed formations.
In the second game, the Chinese team sent Liu Shengshu/Zhang Shuxian to return to the field as a double-double, the Japanese team made a test of Matsuyama Nami/Wakana Nagahara due to the absence of Mayu Matsumoto, the Thai team also sent the Renta Kahn/Kanraha combination due to the absence of sister Benyapa, and the South Korean team also sent two temporary pairs of Lee So Hee/Kim Hye Jung and Kong Hee Yong/Jung Na Eun due to the absence of Kim So-young.
The national feather men's team and women's team both played against Canada, and the result was a 5-0 victory, achieving a "double kill" against them
China 5-0 Canada
1. Shi Yuqi 21-9, 21-14 Yang Can
2. Leung Wai Keng/Wang Chang 21-9, 21-18 Li Kaiwen/Lindeman
3. Li Shifeng 21-6, 21-14 Victor
4. He Jiting/Ren Xiangyu 21-10, 21-13 Wadia/Yakura Ni
5. Weng Hongyang 21-5, 21-8 Josh
At present, the Chinese team and the South Korean team in Group A of the Tang Cup are both 2 wins in 2 games, and the two teams have locked up the qualification place in advance and will compete for the first place in the group the day after tomorrow.
Shi Yuqi said that last year's Asian Games did not play particularly well because it was a high-intensity knockout match at the beginning of the competition, and there was no process of adaptation. Since there is a group stage in the soup cup this time, I will actively participate in the battle, hoping to fully adapt and mobilize in the previous games. Although He Jiting and Ren Xiangyu have both had the experience of playing soup cups, it is the first time for the two to be combined. They even felt that it was fresher than the previous editions, because the previous ones were held abroad, and this time it was finally at home.
In Ningbo, Xiaofu gave up because of a back injury, and is still actively treated, and has recovered seventy or eighty percent, but he does not dare to fully release his strength. In the past, He Jiting was always very released in the team competition, and he also said that the team competition felt very different, and he looked forward to celebrating excitedly again.
Weng Hongyang: Ask for the battle to prepare for the key battle, and Xiao Weng, who ended the whole day, said that his back injury has improved greatly, and he actively asked for the battle to meet the challenge of the soup cup in a new state.
You Cup group stage: South Korea 5-0 USA
1, An Xiying 21-11, 21-16 Zhang Beiwen
2. Kim Hye-jung/Lee So Hee 21-9, 21-16 Xu Xinfei/Xu Yifei
3. Shen Youzhen 21-18, 21-10 Esther
4. Zheng Nayin/Kong Xirong 21-8, 21-10 He Lingling/Veronica
5. Jin Jialan 21-7, 21-19 Aylalin
The South Korean women's team is the defending champion, the strength is very strong, last year's Asian Games team finals defeated the Chinese team, the strength has surpassed Japan, so the strongest opponent of the Chinese team in this Uber Cup is the South Korean team, the world's No. 1 An Xiying is very strong, but the current injury affects the state, Li Bai combination is also very strong, many times defeated the Chinese main force, the second and third behind are also relatively strong.
The U.S. women's team used to be a luxury team, winning the first three Uber Cups, but since then it has plummeted and has never achieved good results, losing 0-5 in both games in two days and exiting one round early.
Soup Cup group stage: Japan 5-0 Czech Republic
1. Kenta Nishimoto 19-21, 22-20, 21-13 Lauda
2. 21-12, 21-13 Italy
3. Teru Koga/Taichi Saito 21-12, 21-13 Krel/Mendrake
4. Kento Momota 21-9, 21-3 Dominic
5. Kenya Mihashi/Yoki Okamura 21-11, 21-13 Iri/Sveda
The current Momota Kento is the No. 4 in the men's singles in Japan, because the world ranking is behind the other three teammates, and he can only play in three singles in the last match, because the opponent is too weak to form a confrontation. In this game, the Japanese team lost the first game except for Kenta Nishimoto, and narrowly won the second game, and the other matches were relatively easy.

5. Gemke 21-11, 21-12 Wu Yinglun
Anselm played an average game in this set, the defense was not very confident, he played a little timid, and there were many mistakes, it was a pity that Li Zhuoyao lost, and if he grasped the key points well, he still had a good chance to win.
