[Saba Sports News] If she can achieve good results at the China Badminton Masters, Thailand’s beautiful player Ratchanok Intanon can have hope to participate in the BWF year-end finals. Before the China Badminton Masters started, Intanon was ranked 11th on the finals points leaderboard. Unfortunately, Intanon lost in the first round to top seed An Se-young from South Korea with scores of 22-24, 21-15, 19-21, thus missing out on this year’s year-end finals. After the match, Intanon updated her social media, expressing that her chances of participating in the year-end finals ended beautifully, feeling satisfied with her performance but recognizing there is still a long way to go to perfection. Additionally, Intanon thanked her team’s motivation and the support from fans, looking forward to achieving better results next year and hoping to meet again in 2025. Intanon revealed that she will now have her relaxation time, planning a short trip and will resume training in mid-December to prepare for next year’s badminton competitions.
