Even against the strong Indian team, they managed to secure a 2-0 win in all five matches. The players have been in top form, showcasing their skills and determination throughout the tournament.
Despite the Danish team’s ranking as the top team in Europe, they were no match for the Chinese team’s superior skills and performance. Chen Yufei set the tone for the match with a commanding win over her opponent in straight sets. The doubles pair of Chen Qingchen and Jia Yifan continued the winning streak with another 2-0 victory, securing the Chinese team’s lead.
In a slightly suspenseful match, He Bingjiao faced tough competition in the second singles match. However, she managed to clinch the win in two closely contested sets, securing the Chinese team’s spot in the semi-finals. With this victory, the Chinese team has not lost a single set or game in the competition, showcasing their dominance and determination to reclaim the Uber Cup title.
