On the afternoon of November 5, Thuy Linh faced Han Yu Chen (Chinese Taipei) in the first round of the Korea Masters. The Vietnamese tennis player has not competed internationally recently due to injury.

Therefore, she also dropped to 24th in the world . But in a Super 300 level tournament like the Korea Masters, Thuy Linh is still ranked as the second seed. Meanwhile, Han Yu Chen is too little known and is only ranked 174th in the world. That is an opportunity for Thuy Linh to have a good start and at the same time evaluate her own performance.

Right from the first game, the Vietnamese badminton hot girl showed her dominance and dominance due to the difference in class. At one point, she created a streak of 7 points to win 21-9.

In the second set, Thuy Linh lost her concentration a bit. Han Yu Chen also played with more effort and improved compared to before. But Thuy Linh still maintained her position to win 21-15.

The Vietnamese player passed the first round of the Korea Masters badminton tournament in just 28 minutes. In the second round, she will meet the winner of the match between Hung Yi Ting (Chinese Taipei) and Keisha Fatimah Azzahra (Azerbaijan).

Currently, Thuy Linh is in the preparation phase towards the 33rd SEA Games taking place in Thailand in December. She is considered the best hope for Vietnamese badminton in terms of the ability to compete for medals, although the challenge will not be small.
