There were no surprises as Nguyen Thuy Linh asserted her dominance, playing superiorly and winning 2-0 (21/6, 23/3) after 32 minutes of competition. With this victory, the number one Vietnamese player rose to the top of Group K with a better tiebreaker score than Beiwen Zhang (USA). In her opening match in this group, Beiwen Zhang (world No. 11) defeated Tiffany Ho 2-0 (21/9, 21/4).

The match between Nguyen Thuy Linh and Beiwen Zhang in the final round of Group K will take place tomorrow (July 31). The winner of this match will advance to the knockout round.

In their most recent encounter at the 2023 Finnish Open, Nguyen Thuy Linh, then ranked 26th in the world, staged a remarkable comeback to defeat Beiwen Zhang 2-1. This has led experts and fans alike to expect Vietnam's number one player to "make a mark" at this year's Paris Olympics.
