On September 16, the Badminton Men’s Singles semi-final of the 14th National Games was staged between Rio Olympic champion, Tokyo Olympic runner-up Chen Long and "rising star" Shi Yuqi. The outside world also regarded this semi-final as the national badminton men's singles. A peak duel.

Shi Yuqi defeated Chen Long in two consecutive games. After the game, he was asked if he could "carry the national feather men's singles banner"?

Shi Yuqi said frankly, "After winning this game, it does not mean that I have carried the banner. It can only be said that owning this responsibility is an affirmation of me, and it is also a pressure." (Reporter Hu Jian produced Sui Zhiyuan)
