2-0 swept the French combination after the Asian Championships and Thailand Open
Badminton "IELTS" recombined and won another championship
On the afternoon of June 12th, Beijing time, the first champion of the 2022 Indonesian Badminton Masters was decided. The former world number one, the "IELTS" combination Zheng Siwei/Huang Yaqiong won 2-0 (21-0) in the mixed doubles final. 13, 21 to 14) swept the French combination Geekquier/Derru, ensuring that Guoyu would not "go empty" in this competition.
After the reunion, Zheng Siwei/Huang Yaqiong have won the Asian Championships, Thailand Open and Indonesia Masters three consecutive championships, winning 15 consecutive victories.
The two old partners proved by their actual performance that they are the most reliable mixed doubles combination of Guoyu.
In this Indonesia Masters, the most difficult test of "IELTS" is not in the final. The semi-final against Xu Chengzai/Cai Yooji of South Korea is the first hurdle that Zheng Siwei and Huang Yaqiong encountered in Jakarta, and it is actually the only one. Kaner.
Fortunately, they did not repeat the mistakes of Wang Yilyu/Huang Dongping's loss. After fierce fighting, "IELTS" reversed and defeated the Korean combination.
Whether it's the cooperation between each other, the competition of small ball skills, or the tenacity of mental will, Zheng Siwei and Huang Yaqiong are indeed a better and more tacit partner. They are worthy of this championship, and they will win consecutive championships. Let the points of the two climb rapidly, and it is just around the corner to return to the world's first.
On May 25th, after Zheng Siwei/Huang Yaqiong won two consecutive championships in three weeks, Zhang Jun, chairman of the Chinese Badminton Association, expressed his views on the split and reorganization of the two best mixed doubles players in China. A series of questions and concerns are explained.
Zhang Jun said at the time, "I recognize this group very much, and I am also very emotional. I want to protect them, because after any doubles group has experienced a series of losses, their state and their trust in their partners are Neither is particularly good. The reason for dismantling the two is not to put them under so much pressure, but to let them rediscover their own rhythm and rediscover each other's goodness by bringing different young players. I think this is really a A good thing."
Zhang Jun also said: "'IELTS' faced a lot of pressure after losing the Olympic and World Championship titles. After they were separated, they could feel each other's goodness. Now they can have a better mentality after reorganization, and their level is still at the top. It seems that Zheng Siwei and Huang Yaqiong have been partnering since 2017, and they have long monopolized the world's No. 1 mixed doubles combination that has won two world championships for Guoyu. .
Now, the two are partnering again, and the effect of "separation and recombination" is still quite obvious.
During the period at the end of last year, it must have been the interference of some other factors that caused the two to have some problems on the court.
But now I have gone through a lot, and I have experienced partnering with other people, only to prove that they are still the "original couple". Zheng Siwei and Huang Yaqiong play together, it is really reassuring. There is such a thing as a consonance, and it is impossible to train and compete together as a partner for a long time. Forming.
