00:00Thank you, Karl. We turn to the development of the final badminton of the BWF World Championships 2024.
00:13A great hope is placed on the mixed doubles of Chen Tanjie and To Yiwei.
00:17The first record is set on the gold medalist of the 2024 Paris Olympics, Zeng Siwei and Huang Yachong.
00:24It can be a reality with a better performance in this edition,
00:27as well as improving the previous four-meetings record,
00:30which was dominated by the former host of the BWF World Championships.
00:36The national olympic gold medalist, Liu Ying, is optimistic and puts the highest confidence for Tanjie and Yiwei to advance to the semifinals.
00:42If there is a chance to see them meet Chinese representatives, Siwei and Yachong, it can be a reality.
00:48The space for revenge is open with a chance for the first winner if the second meeting of the pair is written in the semifinals.
00:55Last November, the former mixed doubles player number one, Zeng Siwei, officially retired at the age of 27.
01:02For the record, the world's top 32, including the Asian Championship, the Thomas Cup, the Sudirman Cup and the World Cup.
01:18To be honest, now I can see his hope and the fire that Zeng Siwei has there.
01:37We really want to break their hope.
01:44The advantage of Tanjie and Yiwei is that even though they have lost,
01:52in terms of age, power and speed, I don't think they will lose.
01:58There is a chance, but they want 100% or 200% because they are world number one.
02:08It's not easy to break their hope.
02:12I don't want to just win because this can be a good competition or training because they are aiming for LA 2028.
02:22So in these two years, it can be a training so that their game will be more mature and better.
