Ratchanok Intanon from Thailand is happy to be back in Odense to play Yonex Denmark Open. Actually there is one thing she is especially happy about. The Danish weather.
Most of the people in Denmark are getting their winter coats out of the closet and daydream about a nice sunny beach. But the world Champion in Women Singles enjoys getting away from the humidity and heat in Thailand.
“I really like the weather here, it is nice and cold,” says Ratchanok Intanon.
Even though she is only 18 years old, she has already managed to show that she is one of the best players in the world. At this year’s world championship she won the final against Li Xuerui from China, who is seeded as number one in Yonex Denmark Open. But although she in August showed that she is a world class player, she is still humble about her expectations at Yonex Denmark Open.
“My ambition is just to get into the quarterfinal. From there, I will take it step by step,” Says Ratchanok Intanon.
