Shi Yu Qi's journey in Japan is not easy. In the first 2 matches, he had to play 3 sets before the opponents that were not overestimated, Toma Junior Popov and Ng Ka Long Angus. After the victory of Wang Tzu Wei, Shi Yu Qi continued to go through a difficult match.

Christo Popov was the next person that made Shi Yu Qi undergo a 60 -minute match in Japan this year. A little luck helped Shi Yu Qi win 28-26 in the set of two decisions, thereby in the final. In Japan alone, Shi Yu Qi met three representatives of France.
After the Popov brothers, Alex Lanier became the third French player against Shi Yu Qi. However, Lanier's fast fighting and high style was decoded by Shi Yu Qi early. Chinese players neutralize many difficult roads of Lanier to win 50 minutes of competition.
The victory over Alex Lanier helped Shi Yu Qi have the third title this year. He continues to show that he is still the most stable Chinese player in China, despite the competition from many other competitors. Kulavut Vitidsarn and Anders Antonsen are both difficult opponents with Shi Yu Qi at this time.
After Japan expanded, Shi Yu Qi will continue to compete in China this week. In the history of the tournament, Shi Yu Qi has never reached the final. Therefore, China expanded 2025 to be considered a “tab” tournament for Shi Yu Qi to the future.
