KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 4 — National women’s singles shuttler K. Letshanaa got her 2026 Korea Open campaign off to a winning start after overcoming Thailand’s Tonrug Saeheng today.
In the first-round match at Jinnam Stadium, the world number 28 took 47 minutes to dispatch the 64th-ranked Thai player in straight sets, 21-17, 21-18.
However, a daunting task awaits Letshanaa in the second round, where she is scheduled to face South Korea’s world number one, An Se Young.
Se Young holds a flawless head-to-head record against Letshanaa, having won all four of their previous encounters.
