Yesterday was already thriller of a first round, but Mia Blichfeldt (Denmark) did it again: She beat Michelle Li from Canada!
After a match like yesterday against Corrales (Spain), it is really hard to get more nervous than that. Mia Blichfeldt seemed a lot more calm today and Michelle Li had to pay the price for that.
- I am happy that I kept my nerves! Blichfeldt stated to Badminton Europe
Other than that, Blichfeldt just had a solid plan for Li
- I was aggressive and got the offense. I knew the net game was important and I managed to pull that off, Blichfeldt commented about her match.
Read: Slow start caused an end
Happy!
It is the first time for Blichfeldt competing at the All England Open. Reaching quarter finals is then even more amazing!
- It’s a good feeling Blichfeld told Badminton Europe
- I haven’t hoped for it so… It is really nice!!
