Ahn Se-young, world No. 1 in badminton Won 10 times including AG and World Championships

South Korea's Ahn Se-young is cheering after winning the gold medal in the badminton women's singles final at the Hangzhou Asian Games held at Binjiang Gymnasium in Hangzhou, China on the 7th.

Ahn Se-young (21, Samsung Life Insurance) has been reborn as the ‘king of badminton women’s singles’ in name and reality throughout this year.

Ahn Se-young is the first female singles player to win more than 9 titles in a single season at a Badminton World Federation (BWF) World Tour tournament.

Looking at the competition itself, Ahn Se-young's feat feels even more remarkable.

Ahn Se-young, who swept four more gold medals by July, surpassed Akane Yamaguchi (Japan) and rose to No. 1 in the world rankings.This was also a great achievement 27 years after Bang Bang-hyeon.

Ahn Se-young, who was not satisfied with this, entered history at the World Individual Championships in August and became the first Korean player to win the singles event. 카지노사이트랭크

Then, Ahn Se-young set the 'Grand Slam' (winning the Olympics, Asian Games, Asian Championships, and World Championships) as her goal, and a month later, she achieved half of that goal with a gold medal at the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games.

Ahn Se-young impressed the public by winning the gold medal with great fighting spirit despite injuring her knee during the final match against Chen Yu-fei (China).

In the women's team competition of 3 wins out of 5, she took the lead in every game, defeating the Chinese team for the first time in 29 years and winning two gold medals at the Hangzhou Games.

In recognition of this feat, Ahn Se-young was proudly selected as the BWF Female Athlete of the Year. 고스톱
