Chinese Taipei badminton sister Tai Tzu Ying, the same generation of Thai star Intanon has no plans to retire, and recently made a New Year's goal, hoping to return to the top 8 in the world rankings and win a medal at the Nagoya Asian Games. Intanon said in an interview that the skills of the new generation of good players still cannot surpass her and Tai Tzu Ying.

Intanon recently defeated Japanese Nozomi Okuhara 21:13, 21:15 in the first round of the Super 750 Series 2025 India Open Women's Singles, suspending four consecutive defeats and entering the round of 16, where she will face South Korean queen An Se Ying. Intanon said in an interview after the race that although her performance at the Paris Olympics was not as expected, she should cheer up as soon as possible, not think too much, and focus on recovering her physical condition, which is very difficult, especially as she gets older, but she will try her best to maintain it.

However, Intanon is very confident in her skills, and despite the rise of the new generation of good players and the transition of women's singles generations, the experience and skill of the veteran are still the advantages of the veteran, and she believes that the magic skills of herself and Tai Tzu Ying are difficult for the new generation of players to surpass, "Some players have good hand skills but not so strong legs, and some have strong legs, but their hand movements are not so good, and no one can do both at the top level." ”

Tai Tzu Ying and Intanon play the same style, with a variety of offensive techniques, and the two are like looking in a mirror. Intanon thinks it's a gift from God, it's a talent, it takes a lot of practice to develop a technique like this, which you can't learn, and when you coach the young players, they don't understand it.

Intanon also hopes that her good friend Tai Tzu Ying and Spain's "Screaming Queen" Marin will be able to recover as soon as possible, so that she and India's first sister Sindhu can still compete with them in the Circle, which is very exciting for everyone.
