Ratchanok Intanon and Srikanth Kidambi Triumph in the Denmark Open!

The World Superseries Premier 2017 Denmark Open came to its end on Sunday, October 22nd. More than half of the finalists were Yonex players such as Yonex All England Open finalist Ratchanok Intanon, BCA Indonesia Open champion Srikanth Kidambi, and Men’s Doubles No.1 pair Marcus Fernaldi Gideon / Kevin Sanjaya Sukamuljo.



The unseeded Thai star Ratchanok Intanon cruised past World No. 1 Tai Tzu Ying of Taiwan in the finals, and took home the Women’s Singles title after defeating fellow ASTROX 77 player Akane Yamaguchi.

In Men’s Singles, India’s Srikanth Kidambi claimed his second Superseries Premier title of the year after overcoming strong opponents like Viktor Axelsen, the 2017 BWF World Champion and local favorite.

World No. 13 Mixed Doubles pair Tang Chun Man / Tse Ying Suet of Hong Kong claimed the victory over World No. 1 pair Zheng Siwei / Chen Qingchen. Tse Ying Suet, who recently switched to Yonex’s new ASTROX, upset their Chinese opponents with demolishing smashes.
