Important update: Chen Yufei dominated An Se-young 2-0 in the women's singles semifinal at the Badminton World Championships, making her the top contender to win the championship this year.

Chen Yufei secured the first game 21-15 over An Se-young. At 3-6 in the second game, Chen got injured and called for a medical timeout. After returning, she showed great determination and won the second game 21-17, eliminating An with a 2-0 match score.

This is truly fantastic news! Since An Se-young won the women's singles gold at the Paris Olympics, she has rarely lost a match. It seems Chen Yufei is one of the few to have beaten her, and achieving this victory in a major world tournament is truly remarkable.

Attached is tonight’s (August 30, 2025) schedule: Shi Yuqi will compete in men’s singles, and Liu Shengshu/Tan Ning will play women's doubles. The matches will be broadcast live on Yangshipin, Youku, and Huya. Both matches are expected wins.
