CCTV-5 and the Central Videoare currently airing the match between Shi Yuqi and Zhou Tiancheng in the men's singles semifinals at the China Badminton Open.
The match is played in a best-of-three format, and currently, Shi Yuqi is trailing Zhou Tiancheng 9-11.
The biggest concern for this match is Shi Yuqi's stamina, as he played three games against Li Shifeng yesterday and has a leg injury, which might affect his performance today. There is a significant worry that Zhou Tiancheng will engage in long rallies, gradually wearing down Shi Yuqi. I sincerely hope that Shi Yuqi can defeat his opponent within two games; otherwise, the probability of losing will be quite high.The gold medal in men's singles is at stake; I look forward to Shi Yuqi bringing it back for the national team!
