Japan “It’s not an embarrassment to lose to the world’s best Ahn Se-young”

I comforted the two-time world champion by saying, ‘I didn’t win, but it’s okay because I didn’t feel ashamed of my play.’ There is an atmosphere that it is inevitable that she will be defeated by Ahn Se-young (21, Samsung Life Insurance), the world’s No. 1 ranked women’s badminton singles player.

Japanese private broadcaster ‘Fukui TV’ encouraged, “Akane Yamaguchi (26) was defeated by Ahn Se-young in the final of the 2023 Badminton World Federation (BWF) World Tour China Open, but she was a proud runner-up with her aggressive attitude shining through.”카지노

Yamaguchi won six major women’s badminton singles championships, including the 2021/2022 World Championships, 2019 Asian Championships, 2013/2014 World Youth Championships, and 2014 Asian Youth Championships.

He was ranked No. 1 in the world for a total of 74 weeks on four occasions. Yamaguchi has maintained second place after losing the lead to Ahn Se-young in August 2023. The China Open is the BWF World Tour’s highest-level ‘Super 1000’ series tournament.

Under normal circumstances, it would be natural for Yamaguchi to be disappointed that he lost the China Open championship to Ahn Se-young with a 0-2 (10-12 19-21) loss even after reaching 4 points in the first set and 19 points in the second set.

However, ‘Fukui TV’ said, “Yamaguchi allowed Ahn Se-young to take the lead, but did not lose the rhythm of the attack. “If you look at the set score alone, it was a complete loss, but we even took the lead (temporarily),” he praised.

Seyoung Ahn advanced to the BWF World Tour finals 10 times this season and won 8 times. She won ▲ 2 wins in the Super 1000 series, ▲ 3 wins in the Super 750 series, and ▲ 3 wins in the Super 500 series.

World No. 1 Ahn Se-young and No. 2 Yamaguchi are candidates to win the women’s badminton singles title at the 19th Hangzhou Asian Games in China, which starts on October 2. Ahn Se-young is still inferior to Yamaguchi in her opponent’s record, with 9 wins and 12 losses in 21 matches.

This is because Ahn Se-young, the second runner-up in the 2023 BWF World Tour, also lost to Yamaguchi. The Super 1000 Series Malaysia Open allowed the top score to be 1-2 (21-12 19-21 11-21), and the Super 300 Series Germany Open allowed the top score to be 0-2 (11-21 14-21).

Ahn Se-young has yet to win singles in any Asian competition, including a bronze medal at the 2022 Asian Championships and a silver medal at the 2023 Asian Championships. Yamaguchi finished third at the 2018 Asian Games in Jakarta-Palembang, Indonesia.

Both of them are bound to have special determination for the women’s badminton singles at the Hangzhou Asian Games. Attention is focused on the gold medal competition between Ahn Se-young, Yamaguchi, and world number 3 Chen Yufei (25, China), who enjoys the home advantage.
