This year, after playing the invincible South Korean new generation of ball, An Seying advanced to the top 8 of the All England Badminton Super 1000 Women's Singles without danger, and met China's Tokyo Olympics gold medalist Chen Yufei as scheduled, and staged a showdown of the last two Olympic champions. Top seed An Seying defeated Scotland's Gilmour 21-12, 16-21, 21-8 in the women's singles round on the 13th, and has won 17 consecutive victories so far this year.

World No. 1 An Se Ying

World No.1 Ahn Se Ying is the absolute favourite to win the All England 2025 after winning the Malaysia Super 1000 in January, the India Super 750 in January and the Orleans Badminton Super 300 last week.

An Xiying and Chen Yufei have faced each other 22 times in their careers, although Chen Yufei leads 12-10, but in the women's singles final of the Orleans Badminton Super 300 Tournament last week, An Xiying won in straight sets.

Chen Yufei

China's Tokyo Olympic champion Chen Yufei also advanced to the quarterfinals of the 2025 All England Badminton Super 1000 Women's Singles. Chen Yufei, who fell to No. 13 in the world rankings due to a long absence from the competition, subdued Indonesia's world No. 11 Butri 21-14, 22-24, 21-10 in the women's singles round on the 13th, and won two consecutive victories against the latter.
