Badminton world No. 1 Ahn Se-young (Samsung Life Insurance) helped the badminton team advance to the quarterfinals of the World Championship with a pleasant victory in her return to the international stage.
Ahn Se-young participated in the second Group B match of the 2025 World Mixed Team Championship (Sudirman Cup) against copyright in Xiamen, China on the 28th, contributing to South Korea's 4-1 victory led by head coach Park Joo-bong. South Korea, which won 4-1 against the Czech Republic in the previous first round, confirmed its advance to the quarterfinals early with two consecutive wins.
The Sudhirman Cup is held in the order of men's singles, women's singles, men's doubles, women's doubles and mixed doubles, and the team that wins three of them first wins. Even if one side has three wins and the winner or loser is decided, the final score will be given by proceeding with five matches without missing out.
As Jeon Hyuk-jin (Yonex) lost 0-2 in the men's singles in the first match on the day, and Korea started with one loss, Ahn Se-young competed in the women's singles. Ahn, who won the most prestigious Jeon Young Open last month, skipped the Asian Championship held earlier this month to concentrate on rehabilitation due to muscle injury (external thigh muscle). If he reached the top of the Asian Championship, he could achieve a career Grand Slam (Olympics, World Championships, Asian Games, Asian Championships), but he chose rehabilitation without overdoing it from a long-term perspective.
After returning from the Sudhirman Cup for the first time in about a month, Ahn successfully completed her return to the court by winning the women's singles 2-0 in a complete victory.
