Wang Yihan is placed second in the current world ranking, but lately she has had a hard time finding her way into the finals. But this Sunday she regained confidence winning the Denmark Super Series. Wang Yihan played her younger fellow Chinese Liu Xin.
The match was very close in the opening. But from the score 13-13, Wang Yihan showed her world class and won 8 out of 9 rallies. She was clearly confident after she got the first set. Liu Xin fought her best and after beating two seeded players she was going for the third but had no luck. Wang Yihan celebrated a 21-12 win and shined on the podium afterwards.
- I am very happy to get this win for last year I came in second place so I had to get back, she says and despite the result, she felt it was a tough match to finish:
- It wasn’t that easy, in the beginning it was tight, but I fight and gets the first set, but my opponent fought very hard and a trouble for me, but I won in the end and that is the most important thing, she ended.
