Shin Yu-bin defeated Elizaveta Samara (36, world 29th) in the quarterfinals of the WTT Champions Frankfurt Women's Singles on the 8th (Korea time) with a game score of 4-0.
Shin Yu-bin, who reached the semifinals of the WTT Champions Montpellier following his first semifinal in China's smash last month, showed everything he did with confidence in his showdown with Samara, who knows each other well. From the first game, he played hardball. He went 4-0 up. In the beginning, Shin Yu-bin took the lead, but fell off the table and gave up a 7-7 tie. However, he again grabbed a foredrive and led 8-7. I caught the game point first in the subgame, and finished 11-9. The second game also led 5-1 and finished lightly 11-4. Shin Yoo-bin led 7-2 and allowed a chase to 7-5 as he was shaken by Samara's attack on the course. But Shin Yu-bin was not shaken. He took the game point with a bold three-ball attack and a solid rally operation, and roared after winning 11-5.
In the fourth game, Shin Yu-bin continued his momentum. He led 4-0, 8-2 with overwhelming speed and sharp attack. Foredrive, backdrive, serve, rally everything was perfect. 11–4, a perfect 4-0 victory for the game score.
No Chinese top rankers participated in this competition. The following year of the Olympics, the Chinese National Sports Festival table tennis event, which is held every four years, began on the 7th. It is a competition that Chinese athletes consider more important than the World Championship as it is held every four years as it is the same as the National Sports Festival in Korea. Pan Zhen-dong, Wang Chu-chin, Marong, Sun Ying-sha, Wang Man-yu, and Chen Meng all participated. As there are no top Chinese male and female rankers, it is an opportunity for non-national players, including Shin Yu-bin, to reach the top. Shin Yu-bin will face Miwa Harimoto (Japan, 7th in the world) and Koda Hana (Egypt, 26th in the world) in the semifinals on the 9th.
