Germany’s Juliane Schenk, the runner-up at last year’s Yonex Denmark Open, faced disappointment as she exited this year’s tournament in the second round. Despite starting strong and winning the first set against Korea’s Bae Yeon Ju, Schenk couldn’t maintain her lead. Bae fought back and secured a hard-earned victory, setting up a quarter-final match against the 2010 champion, Wang Yihan of China.

Another upset came in the Men’s Singles event, with Japan’s Kenichi Tago, the fourth seed, falling to the resurgent Sony Dwi Kuncoro of Indonesia. Kuncoro, who has had a mixed year in terms of performance, outclassed Tago in straight games, displaying his ‘A’ game throughout the match.

Chen Long, the second seed in Men’s Singles and the winner of the 2011 edition, had a tough time against England’s Rajiv Ouseph. Ouseph’s deceptive play and unique style troubled Chen, taking him to the brink of defeat. However, Chen’s tactical brilliance allowed him to turn the tables and secure a hard-fought victory.

One of the highlights of the day was the Women’s Doubles match between Denmark’s Marie Roepke/Line Damkjaer Kruse and China’s Ma Jin/Zhong Qianxin. Roepke and Kruse utilized their strong all-around play to overcome the powerful smashes of their Chinese opponents and emerged victorious in a thrilling encounter.
