(Badminton results) - Nguyen Thuy Linh faced a challenging debut at Swiss Open 2026, but Vietnam's top player demonstrated her class and resilience.

Game 1: Thuy Linh 11-21 Li

Despite facing a lower-rated opponent in her Swiss Open debut, Nguyen Thuy Linh had a tough start and suffered a heavy defeat in game 1. She quickly trailed 11-3, then managed to recover points, but ultimately drifted away against a Yvonne Li who was both skillful and fortunate.

Thuy Linh's movements were quite heavy and passive in game 1; hopefully Vietnam's top player will make a strong comeback in the next set.

Game 2: Thuy Linh 21-15 Li

Nguyen Thuy Linh returned strongly in game 2 with effective net plays and powerful forehand smashes. However, her overall feel for the shuttle and some of her shot execution still appeared rather "awkward."

Fortunately for Thuy Linh, Yvonne Li performed poorly in this set with numerous errors, handing points to the Vietnamese representative and helping the world's 26th-ranked player level the match 1-1, pushing the contest into a decisive game 3.

Game 3: Thuy Linh 21-17 Li

Nguyen Thuy Linh completely dominated Yvonne Li in the early part of set 3. Her transitions and clever shuttle placement left her opponent completely off rhythm, quickly reaching the 11-point mark.

However, Thuy Linh caused considerable concern among fans with a series of handling errors, allowing Li to continuously recover points and narrow the gap to 11-10. Nevertheless, the German player could not sustain this rhythm consistently, continuing to make errors and delivering poorly-feeled shots, enabling Thuy Linh to surge ahead and complete the dramatic comeback.

Final result, Nguyen Thuy Linh defeated Yvonne Li 2-1 (11-21; 21-15; 21-17). The next opponent for the player from Phu Tho will be Hina Akechi or Tomoka Miyazaki.
