Loh Stunned by Thai Rival Again
The Straits Times
|April 13, 2025
Kunlavut's winning streak continues with 7th straight victory over Singaporean at Asia C'ships
Once again, Thailand's Kunlavut Vitidsarn proved to be a major stumbling block for Loh Kean Yew, as the Singaporean was beaten 23-21, 21-10 by his arch nemesis in the Badminton Asia Championships semi-finals on April 12.
Kunlavut Vitidsarn's seventh consecutive victory over Loh Kean Yew not only extended his winning streak, which began in 2021, but also brought an end to Loh's promising run at the Badminton Asia Championships in Ningbo, China.
Just a day ago, world No. 17 Loh had stunned China's top-ranked Shi Yuqi in the quarter-finals.
Loh, 27, said: "Kunlavut had better control of the wind and shuttle condition today, especially in the second game.
"Overall I think I did well for this tournament but there are also a lot of areas to work on and to improve. I'll go back and reflect, and work hard again with (national singles head) coach Kim (Ji-hyun) to prepare for the next tournament."
