The Danish Open badminton tournament ended last Sunday, the European badminton season continued, and the French Open badminton tournament kicked off yesterday. However, due to the absence of the Chinese team and the tight schedule of the competition, many famous players were absent, and the stars of the French tournament held after a one-year hiatus were not as bright as the Danish race.
The Olympic champion competed only in Arcelor
The French Open is still super 750, with points slightly lower than the danish tournament that just ended and was upgraded to super 1000. The tournament itself is more dissuading players from holding the time, france is already the fourth leg of the European season, and indonesia's three high-level tournaments will start in mid-November, which has caused many famous players to abandon this tournament when registering.
The Chinese badminton team did not participate in the French Open, and they flew from Denmark to Beijing yesterday to start their third quarantine after last year's All England Open and this year's Tokyo Olympics. In addition to The National Feather, many famous players have not signed up for the competition, including Dai Ziying, who did not participate in the European season, Dai Ziying, the world number one in women's singles, who was injured, and the Japanese women's doubles team, which almost failed to make a move for some reason.
Polly/Lahayu and Li Yang/Wang Qilin, who participated in last week's Denmark race, did not participate in the French race, and with the absence of Chen Yufei and Wang Yilu/Huang Dongping, only Acelon was the only Olympic champion who participated in this competition. Arcelor, who lost 13 consecutive games at home to Momota kendou in Denmark, has a hidden achievement that can be achieved in this France tournament, that is, if he can win the championship smoothly, he may surpass Momota Kendou and jump to the first place in the world rankings.
Kintin Jonathan withdrew
In addition to the fewer registered players than the Danish tournament, the successive consumption of the Sudirman Cup, the Tongyou Cup and the Danish tournament has caused some players who have already registered to withdraw from the competition, including Indonesia's Kinting and Jonatan 2 men's singles, Astrup/Rasmussen and other 3 danish men's doubles pairs.
Halfway through the first round yesterday, only 8 seeded players were played, and in the final focus battle, Denmark's Antonson lost 19-21, 19-21 to Hong Kong's Lee Cheuk-yew.
Chen Bingqiao/Wu Liuying, who played for the first time after the Tokyo Olympics, defeated an Indian pair of 2-0 to advance; Japanese mixed doubles Kaneko/Matsutomo Misaki defeated a Chinese Hong Kong combination to advance; Wu Jialang, Alfian/AdiAnto, Changshan Kantai and others won the promotion; Canada's Yang Can, South Korea's Gao Chengxuan/Yan Huiyuan, Thailand's Wang Gaolun, Chai Wan, Malaysia's Liu Guolun and Denmark's Mia were all eliminated.
The other half of the first round of the match today has more highlights than yesterday, the men's singles top seed Momota Kendou will play against India's Srikans, the second seed Acesaron will play against south Korean Heo Youxi, who has defeated Momota twice before, and Akane Yamaguchi, Rajon, Ahn Hyun-y, Singh Hu and so on will all play.
