Original title: Singapore Badminton Open: “Phoenix Combination” defeated teammates Weng Hongyang eliminated Li Zijia
The competition for the top 16 seats at the Singapore Badminton Open ended on the 7th. National feather mixed doubles “Phoenix combination” Feng Yanzhe/Huang Dongping defeated teammate “Sauce Banya combination” Jiang Zhenbang/Wei Yaxin 2:0, and will face the Chinese Taipei combination Ye Hongwei/Li Jiaxin in the next round.
According to the arrangement of the competition, players who failed to appear on the first day of Guoyu completed their debut on the 7th. The national badminton mixed doubles signing was not good, and the first round of the “China Derby” was staged. Feng Yanzhe/Huang Dongping played against Jiang Zhenbang/Wei Yaxin. The former’s state is still ups and downs after the Sudirman Cup. They won silver in the Malaysia Badminton Masters, but then suffered a “round trip” in the Thailand Badminton Open.
The two pairs are familiar with each other and the world rankings are close, but the game was not as close as expected. The “Phoenix combination” only took 29 minutes to beat their teammates 2:0. After the game, Feng Yanzhe thought that the first game was not easy for everyone, the wind speed was higher, and he and his partner were more patient on the court. He admitted that there are still ups and downs in his recent performance. There is no goal set for this competition, and he strives to “do a good job in the present and do a good job in the process.”
The previous day, the national feather men’s doubles pair failed, and the main men’s doubles pair Liang Weikeng/Wang Chang who debuted that day had more expectations. In the last Thailand Badminton Open, Liang Weikeng/Wang Chang won the men’s doubles gold medal, rising to third in the world ranking, setting a new career high. In the first game of this station, the two continued their fiery state and defeated their opponents 2:0 to advance to the next round. After the game, the two said that they will do a good job in physical distribution and physical adjustment. The goal of this station is to break into the top 4 men’s doubles.
National feather men’s singles player Weng Hongyang played well and defeated the No. 8 seed and Malaysian player Li Zijia 2:1. Although the “first brother” of the Malaysian men’s singles has an advantage in terms of match records and experience in competitions, Weng Hongyang was even better in front of the net in this game, and finally defeated a strong opponent. He will face teammate Li Shifeng in the next round.
In other competitions, He Bingjiao, Wang Zhiyi, and Han Yue all won the women’s singles, and Zhang Shuxian/Zheng Yu, Ren Xiangyu/Tan Qiang also defeated their opponents in doubles. Women’s singles player Zhang Yiman regretted losing and missed the next round.
