Yangcheng Evening News reporter Su Yun reported: The semi-finals of the 2023 Malaysian Badminton Open will start on the 14th. With Chen Yufei losing 1-2 to South Korea's "genius girl" An Xiying, the Chinese women's singles missed the final.

　　Chen Yufei defeated Japan's Nozomi Okuhara, Canada's Li Wenshan and Spain's Marin, and faced An Xiying, who eliminated her teammate Wang Zhiyi, in the semi-finals.

In the past 9 encounters, Chen Yufei won 8 of them.

An Xiying has regarded Chen Yufei as her strongest opponent for a long time. It is precisely because she lost to Chen Yufei in the Tokyo Olympics that she regrettably stopped in the quarterfinals.

She once said frankly that every time she faces Chen Yufei, she is very anxious, because Chen Yufei is like a "big tree that can never be cut down", and she will cry bitterly every time she loses to Chen Yufei.

　　Chen Yufei's overwhelming victory was broken at the Malaysian Masters in July last year, when An Xiying screamed and celebrated wildly after winning, and even shed tears.

However, in the BWF Finals at the end of last year, Chen Yufei responded with a 2-0 to An Xiying.

　　Chen Yufei once again encountered An Xiying in the arena where she lost last year. Before the game, she specifically mentioned that loss and said that she would make good preparations.

However, at the beginning of the game, Chen Yufei was overwhelmed by her opponent's speed. An Xiying scored 7 points in a row and won the first game 12-21.

In the second game, the competition between the two sides was more intense, and there were several equal points on the field.

Chen Yufei used the change of placement to mobilize and consume An Xiying, and seized the opportunity at the critical moment to win back a point 21-19.

It is a pity that Chen Yufei collapsed in the deciding game, and was defeated by a disparity of 9 to 21.

　　In the rest of the competition, the Indonesian team Rahayu/Siti withdrew due to injury, while Chen Qingchen/Jia Yifan directly advanced to the final in the women's doubles.

In the mixed doubles semi-finals, Zheng Siwei/Huang Yaqiong of China defeated Deyang/Vide Jiajia of Indonesia 2-0, Yuta Watanabe/Arisa Higashino of Japan defeated Dechapo/Sasiri of Thailand 2-0 , the final will be played by the "IELTS" team against the "Dongdu" team.
