Following his round one loss to countryman Lu Guang Zu at the VICTOR China Open 2019 in Changzhou yesterday, world No. 3 Shi Yu Qi has withdrawn from the men’s singles draw of the Korea Open 2019 due to start next Tuesday on 24 September.
Shi was playing his first competitive match since returning from ankle ligament surgery for an injury sustained at the BLIBLI Indonesia Open 2019 in July.
Lu defeated Shi 21-5 21-9 in 15 minutes as the reigning HSBC BWF World Tour Finals champion struggled with his movement throughout the encounter.
