World World Federation SUPER100 level Canadian Open just ended in Calgary, Canada. The South Korean team became the biggest winner of the station. They won the championship in the women's singles and mixed doubles, and the women's doubles runner-up ended with 2 gold and 1 silver. The Chinese team, which entered the finals in the same three events, won the gold medal in men's singles by young player Li Shifeng, and was also the first champion of Li Shifeng's adult tour. In addition, the Chinese badminton team also won the runner-up in women's singles and mixed doubles events. Among them, the 19-year-old young actress Wang Zhiyi lost to South Korea's 17-year-old talented girl An Shiying in two games, and the mixed doubles were two 19-year-old young players Guo Xinwa/Zhang Shuxian. The situation was leading in two games by the Korean group Gao Sung-hyun /Yan Huiyuan reversed and won the silver.
There is no doubt that South Korea's 17-year-old high school student An Shiying has become the hottest player recently. After the Tokyo Olympic points competition started, she won two consecutive championships in the New Zealand Open and the Canadian Open. She defeated Chinese players in the finals. The Olympic champions who returned from a serious injury at the New Zealand Open Li Xuerui and 19-year-old Wang Zhiyi in the Canadian Open were unable to stop An Shiying's progress. With , Ji Hyun, absent due to injury, Ahn Se-young has become the new leader in the women's singles of the South Korean team.
In addition to An Shiying, the young player Li Shifeng of the Chinese badminton team also made a new breakthrough. He won his first championship in the Canadian Open. Li Shifeng, born in 2000, is 182cm tall. He is 4 years younger than Shi Yuqi, and he has made rapid progress. This is a strong feeling in his game. After losing the first game, he will always adjust himself quickly and make effective improvements in the subsequent games. Of course, this also has something to do with his opponent's lack of strength, but we still have reason to expect him to become another powerful general after Shi Yuqi.
also achieved zero breakthrough in the adult tour. Setiana Mapasha/Groya Samoville from Australia. They defeated the Chinese group Yu Xiaohan/Huang Jia in the semi-finals, and defeated the Zhang Yina /Jin Huilin from South Korea in the final, which made their championship look much heavier than the Oceania champion.
The men's doubles champion was taken away by Danish star Bowie and Morganson who had changed their partner again. They defeated Japanese young players Masayuki Onodera/Okamura Yoki in the final. In this stop, they defeated China's Shang Yichen/Liang Weikeng, China's Taipei Li Yang/Wang Qilin and China's Taipei Lu Jingyao/Yang Bohan. Except for the three rounds of the Chinese teenagers who played in the first round, the remaining two rounds resolved the battle, which made people admire their age and become stronger. Denmark is indeed an immortal city, which depends entirely on their determination to step on the Tokyo Olympic stage. Although they will definitely miss the World Championships in August this year, they are still looking forward to their Olympic tour.
mixed doubles Chinese badminton young players performed Guo Xinwa/Zhang Shuxian's performance was amazing, but the only drawback is that their experience is still a little lacking. It is not difficult to see from their promotion path that they struggled to advance in the second and third rounds, and were reversed by Gao Chengxuan/Yan Huiyuan while leading the score in both games. The Korean combination taught them a profound lesson. I hope they can summarize it in time. When Guo Xinwa and Liu Xuanxuan paired up, they had already proved their abilities in the youth arena, especially the scene of Guo Xinwa/Liu Xuanxuan defeating three against Korean players in the 2018 Asian Youth Championship. I still feel excited. All he lacks is experience. This pair of young players who are only 19 years old will make the mixed doubles of the Chinese badminton team promising tomorrow.
Among the players who won the Canadian Open, the men's singles were 19-year-old Li Shifeng, the women's singles were 17-year-old An Shiying, the men's doubles were 39-year-old Bowie + 31-year-old Peterson, the women's doubles were two 24-year-old Australian girls Setiana Mapasha/Groya Samowel, and the mixed doubles were 32-year-old Gao Sung Hyun + 28-year-old Yan Huiyuan.The runner-up male singles is 33-year-old Indian veteran Kashiyap, the women's singles is 19-year-old Chinese young player Wang Zhiyi, the men's doubles are Japanese 21-year-old Japanese teenager Masayu Onode/Okamura Yohiro, the women's doubles are 25-year-old Yu Xiaohan and 19-year-old Huang Jia, and the mixed doubles are Chinese 19-year-old Chinese teenager Guo Xinwa/Zhang Shuxian. From the age of 17 to 39, we have seen not only the infinite youth storm caused by the young players born in the 2000s, but also witnessed the tenacious veteran spirit played by Bowie and Gao Sung Hyun. Badminton really makes you unable to love.
