[Saba Sports News] In the second women’s singles match of the 2025 Sudirman Cup final, An Se-young defeated Wang Zhiyi , the world No. 2 female player, in straight sets, helping South Korea level the score. Despite the frequent schedule and heavy physical strain this season, the 23-year-old An Se-young remains undefeated, winning all 25 matches so far this year. Including the Sudirman Cup, An has participated in five tournaments this year, winning the titles at the All England Open, Malaysian Super 1000, Indian Super 750, and Orleans Super 300, maintaining a perfect win rate. Regarding this achievement, An responded calmly: “The secret is simple—whether it’s training or competing, every moment, I give it my all.” When asked about her thoughts on Chinese female players, this new-generation queen of badminton showed modesty, stating she always looks up to them as role models because their excellence continuously motivates her to improve herself.
