Besides the US expansion this week, the players attending Canada expanded 2025 (Super 300) had a branch drawing table next week. In the men's single category, the lucky visit brought Nguyen Hai Dang and Le Duc Phat to meet in the first match of the tournament.
The upcoming match between Hai Dang and Duc Phat is the third time to meet each other in the past month. Earlier, in the Malaysian Masters 2025 qualifiers (Super 500) and the semi -finals of the national badminton tournament, Hai Dang was the winner. However, the victories of the lighthouse against Duc Phat were not too big.
In the semi -final of the National Team 2025, Duc Phat was the one who won 1 before the lighthouse. For the rest of the time, Hai Dang played better. Even when the two players changed the field in the second half set 3, Hai Dang went a circuit to the final victory.
In terms of form recently, Hai Dang is the one who shows better than his teammates. However, Duc Phat's strengths are the ability to concentrate, as well as play explosive in the moment. That makes the upcoming match in Canada between them more unpredictable.
The winner in the match between Hai Dang and Duc Phat will likely meet a very strong opponent in the next round. It was Naraoka Kodai, Japanese ranked 7th in the world. Naraoka is the No. 1 seed in Canada, and he has come to Vietnam to play, winning the Vietnam Open 2022 championship.
