The first Super 1000 series event of the 2024 World Badminton World Tour - the Malaysian Badminton Open ignited the war on January 9th, Beijing time. Tai Tzu Ying, a sister from Chinese Taipei, will compete with the Chinese American star Beiwen Zhang in the first round of women's singles. Zhang Beiwen admitted in an interview before the game that her condition has not been adjusted yet and there is no pressure against Tai Tzu Ying.
The 33-year-old Chinese-American player Beiwen Zhang is currently ranked 9th in the world in women's singles, which is also the best ranking of her career. Like Tai Tzu Ying, Zhang Beiwen will retire after this season. Beiwen Zhang said in an interview that she does not intend to change. My retirement plan, because I am no longer young, the Paris Olympics is likely to be the last important competition of my career, and I can't wait to hang up my shooting and rest.
Zhang Beiwen talked about the goal of this year's "The Last Dance". She believes that it is necessary to stay away from injuries through training and choose the competition well. These are the experiences gained last year, which also contributed to achieving good results, because there have been many times in the past. Injuries prevented her from making much progress, and her only goal this year is to avoid injuries.
Zhang Beiwen has not conducted special training for nearly two months due to family reasons. She did not start practicing until a week before the 2024 Malaysian Badminton Open. In this regard, Zhang Beiwen said: "There is no pressure against Dai Ziying in the first round, just let it go."
