Denmark Tournament》Chou Tien-cheng defeated the Japanese players in straight games to complete his revenge and advanced to the top 8 of men's singles and roared loudly

The 36-year-old Taiwanese No. 1 brother Zhou Tiancheng defeated Japanese player Koki Watanabe, ranked 16th in the world, at 21:19 and 22:20 in the top 16 of the Men's Singles at the Super 750 Series Denmark Badminton Open today. He also ended his 3-game losing streak and advanced to the top 8 as expected. After the game, Xiaotian clenched his fists with excitement and roared after the 51-minute victory.

Zhou Tiancheng, ranked 6th in the world, won the Super 1000 Series China Open in July, reached the top 4 of the World Championships, and reached the top 8 of the Nagoya Asian Games and Arctic Open last month. Xiaotian moved to Denmark this week and defeated the Indian player Lakshya Sen in 3 games in the first round. Today, he ran into Watanabe Koki, who lost in the top 8 of the Arctic last week, hoping to avenge his shame.

Zhou Tiancheng took advantage of many mistakes made by Watanabe Kouki at the beginning of the game and led by up to 6 points. Although his opponent gradually stabilized after the technical timeout and once caught up with 19:20, Xiaotian relied on patience and experience to grab a key point and won the first victory at 21:19.

After changing sides, Zhou Tiancheng repeatedly used line-changing acceleration to find surprise opportunities, and successfully took the advantage at 12:6. However, after the technical timeout, he made many mistakes and misjudged, and his opponent launched a 9:2 fierce attack to catch up. The latter part of the game also progressed. There was a tug-of-war for the lead. Although Xiaotian missed the first final point at 20:19 due to a return ball hanging in the net, he immediately took the lead with a diagonal kill. The next wave of attacks forced Watanabe's return ball out of bounds, winning at 22:20.

In the women's singles, Taiwanese player Huang Youxun was competitive in the first game and had interactions with Indonesia's fifth seed Putri Kusuma Wardani. Unfortunately, she wasted her lead. Her performance in the second game plummeted, and she finally lost 19:21, 8:21 and missed the top eight.
