A Fresh Start for Chinese Players
The Chinese team is determined to prove their mettle after some unexpected losses at the World Championships in Guangzhou. The Adidas China Masters presents the perfect opportunity for promising Chinese youngsters to shine and showcase their skills. With a number of talented players in all five events, this tournament holds the promise of unearthing future badminton stars.
Men’s Singles: A Chance for Emerging Players
The absence of Malaysia’s Lee Chong Wei, the biggest non-Chinese name in Men’s Singles, creates an open field for other players to make their mark. Local star Chen Long takes the top seed position, while other Chinese contenders like Du Pengyu, Wang Zhengming, and Chen Yuekun add to the competition. Additionally, emerging players such as Tian Houwei, Gao Huan, Song Xue, Qiao Bin, and Zhou Wenlong (qualifying) are eager to impress. Indonesian players Tommy Sugiarto and Dionysius Hayom Rumbaka, along with Denmark’s Jan O Jorgensen, are also expected to make their presence felt in the tournament.
