‘Win rate 98.5%’ Overwhelming momentum Ahn Se-young, 10th win of the season is ‘just around the corner’

Ahn Se-young (Samsung Life Insurance), the 'world's best' badminton player, who continues to make remarkable progress with a winning rate exceeding 98%, has reached the finals of the French Open and is close to winning her 10th title of the season.

World No. 1 Ahn Se-young defeated Nozomi Okuhara (9th, Japan) 2-0 (21-12 21-19) in 45 minutes in the French Open women's singles semifinals held in Tremblay-en-France, France on the 24th.

As a result, Ahn Se-young, who recorded 65 wins and 1 loss this year, boasted an overwhelming win rate of 98.5%.

Ahn Se-young, who had won all seven games in her match against Okuhara, once again proved her skills on a different level.

Ahn Se-young, who won by 9 points in the first game without allowing a single chase, gave up a 3-7 lead early in the second game.

However, he immediately succeeded in scoring 7 consecutive points to turn the game around, and after allowing the score to be tied 11-11, he showed fierce concentration and sealed the victory.

Seyoung Ahn will face the winner of the semifinal match between Pusala Sindhu (India) and Akechi Hina (Japan) in the final.

While her strong rivals Wang Ziyi (2nd place, China) and Akane Yamaguchi (3rd place, Japan) were eliminated in the round of 16 with a shock loss of 0-2, Ahn Se-young comfortably advanced to the finals.

Ahn Se-young, the 'absolute top' who has no opponent to compete with, will lift her 10th championship trophy of the season if she wins the final.

Except for the All England Open, where she won a silver medal this season, Ahn Se-young stood on the highest podium in all nine individual competitions she participated in this year, including the Asian Games.

In addition, if he wins this tournament, he will achieve a third consecutive victory in the tournament following 2019, 2024, and 2025, and will set a record of achieving French Open supremacy for the fourth time in his career.
