Young challengers and defeated champions: All England 2023

(03/21/23 10:00am)

The All England Open 2023 surprised its audience since the first day of the tournament. Previous championship title holder and world No. 1 Viktor Axelsen was defeated in the preliminaries by young Malaysian player Tze Yong Ng. World No. 5 Tien Chen Chou and world No. 2 Jonatan Christie were eliminated in the first round. Young shuttler Shifeng Li, who had never won a title above Super 100 level, capturing the decisive victory against his fellow compatriot Yuqi Shi — world No. 13 — was by far the most jaw-dropping event that occurred at the All England Open.

With the weather this week having daily highs in the 50s and even 60s, it’s shocking to imagine that just the Saturday before last, the temperature was minus 10 degrees Fahrenheit with a wind chill of minus 36 degrees. That Saturday was the coldest day in Boston since 1957 and the second coldest wind chill in Boston ever. The conditions brought both joy and frustration to Brandeis students.
