Overcome each point to advance to the world's top 20
On the latest ranking of the World Badminton Federation (BWF), Nguyen Thuy Linh holds the position of 24 women's singles events. After recent international tournaments, Nguyen Thuy Linh is in good spirits. Athletes practice and prepare to participate in the next program in the North American region with each tournament in the US (from June 24 to 29) and Canada (from July 1 to 6. We calculate for Thuy Linh to strive to win each accumulated point in individual results to help improve her ranking and find the ability to return to the World Top 20 as soon as possible. Opportunities are promises, coach Ngo Trung Dung of the Vietnam Badminton Team once shared.
Nguyen Thuy Linh has participated in the last 2 international tournaments including the Malaysia Masters 2025 International Tournament (ending on May 25.5) and the 2025 Indonesia Open International Tournament (ending on June 8). The tournament in Malaysia has the world's BWF World Tour Super 500 level and Thuy Linh entered the quarter-finals of the women's singles. For the first time in many years, the tennis player has played excellently in the quarter-finals of such a high-level tournament. In the tournament in Indonesia, Nguyen Thuy Linh stopped after the first round of women's singles.
Thuy Linh is actively improving her expertise for the tournament from the BWF World Tour Super 300 level and above. In such tournaments, the tennis player accumulates more points after each victory. But the coaching staff will build a competition program to ensure Thuy Linh participates in the right number of prizes to ensure science, avoiding overloading, Mr. Khoa Trung Kien, head of badminton (Vietnam Department of Physical Education and Sports) discussed.
Since her achievement to appear on the BWF rankings in 2014, Nguyen Thuy Linh is the most improved female badminton player in Vietnam. In 2023, she rose to 20th place in the world (3-week journey). The above position is the highest ranking that a Vietnamese women's badminton player has on the BWF rankings. Nguyen Thuy Linh shared: "I aim to return to the Top 20 in the world and through each first tournament, I try to achieve the best results".
Returning to France to compete
Thuy Linh is a tennis player with effort. Badminton is a combat sport, so preparation must be very careful from physical to tactical level. Therefore, Thuy Linh's regular focus on competing in tournaments with BWF World Tour Super 300 level or higher is a good opportunity to help tennis players ensure their qualifications," Mr. Khoa Trung Kien added.
The Vietnam Badminton Federation is still looking for solutions to the question of who will be the idol of Vietnamese badminton. When Nguyen Tien Minh passed the peak of his expertise, badminton makers saw Nguyen Thuy Linh continue to step up to become a senior.
This tennis player has many conditions to develop her expertise. However, what she has not really shown is winning the highest achievements in the international arena. Nguyen Thuy Linh is very focused on aiming to once stand on the podium to receive a women's singles medal at the SEA Games or Asian tournaments.
Nguyen Tien Minh has achieved this. If she sails smoothly in her expertise, Thuy Linh has enough opportunities to compete for the women's singles medal at the SEA Games but must strive for more than 100% of her ability.
Last year, Thuy Linh competed in the 2024 Paris Olympics (France) and she affirmed that the competition helped her open up many more professional things. This year, she is almost certain to have a ticket back to France for the 2025 Badminton World Championship hosted by this country in August 2025.
Thuy Linh is currently ranked 13th in the list of female tennis players competing for a spot at the 2025 World Badminton Championship. At the end of June, the World Badminton Federation (BWF) officially announced the list of athletes participating in the tournament.
