In the first women's singles match, Tokyo Olympic women's singles champion Chen Yufei got off to a bad start, losing 12-21, 13-21 to South Korea's Ahn Zhiying. The two have played many times this year, and Chen Yufei wins less and loses more. This season, Ahn has reached the final 12 times and won the championship 9 times, and her results are unmatched.

In the second women's doubles match, the current world number one "fan dust combination" Chen Qingchen / Jia Yifan lost 18-21, 14-21 to old rivals South Korean women's doubles Bai Ha Na/Li Shaoxi.

The pressure was given to the women's singles He Bingjiao, who played in the third round, although the comprehensive strength was better than her opponent, He Bingjiao did not play at the best level, losing 21-23, 17-21 to Jin Jiaen, and Guoyu lost and missed the championship. After losing the match, He Bingjiao burst into tears, and the South Korean team behind her was celebrating the victory excitedly, and her figure looked extremely lonely.

In an interview after the game, several members of the Guoyu team had tears in their eyes. Chen Yufei said that An Zhiying's performance was stable and reasonable, and there were fewer active mistakes, although she had won the Sudirman Cup before and made a lot of preparations, but the opponent created a certain amount of pressure, and it was difficult for her to relieve her nervousness. "I wasn't excited enough on the pitch and didn't find an effective way to limit my opponent, and the more I played, the more mistakes I made."
Jia Yifan is also full of regret, "We have worked very hard to mobilize ourselves, but the opponent is very strong and the fight is very targeted. The game was either lost or won, and unfortunately we didn't score a single point for the team. The form of this game is not so good, but it is not a reason to lose. I'm a man, not a god, and I want to win too. Really sorry team. She couldn't stop her emotions and picked up a towel to wipe her tears.
Chen Qingchen comforted her teammates on the side, she said: "We have been playing for six or seven years, and we have gone through many difficult times together, and we will open up whenever we have the opportunity. It's best to win, and don't regret losing. On the court, it's all about working hard and trying your best to get to the last point. ”
In recent years, the strength of the Korean team in badminton has improved rapidly. Regarding the women's team final victory, the coach of the Korean team believes that "every moment of victory can be reversed, and we need to continue to work hard to maintain the victory result." I think winning the championship today is closely related to the team's positive attitude, strong determination and continuous hard work. ”
When asked by reporters how Tao Jiaming, the coach of the Chinese team, sees the pressure of playing at home, Tao Jiaming said that there is pressure and motivation to play at home. "The South Korean team has played more consistently, we have not grasped the key points, and there is still a lot to improve in the details."
As for how to quickly help the team members get out of the shadow of defeat to cope with the next single game, Tao Jiaming believes that it is necessary to sum up well when going back, adjust the mentality, and get the lost championship back.
