At the end of the second day of competition, host Vietnam only had 4 representatives in the round of 16 of the 2024 Vietnam Open Badminton Tournament: Nguyen Thuy Linh, Vu Thi Trang (women's singles), Le Duc Phat, Nguyen Hai Dang (men's singles). These are all the leading badminton players of Vietnam at the present time.

According to today's schedule, all four Vietnamese players will compete on Court No. 1 and will be broadcast live on HTV Sports. At 1 p.m., Nguyen Hai Dang (ranked 75th in the world) will play the opening match of the men's singles round of 16 against Japanese player Shogo Ogawa (ranked 189th in the world). His opponent is ranked lower but promises to cause difficulties for the player from Ho Chi Minh City.

At around 2 p.m., tennis player Vu Thi Trang (ranked 129th in the world) will compete in the round of 16 of the women's singles, facing tennis player Asuka Takahashi (Japan, ranked 53rd in the world). This is a big challenge for Vu Thi Trang because she has not competed internationally recently and has to face a strong opponent.

The notable match between Le Duc Phat (ranked 62nd in the world) and Ong Zhen Yi (Malaysia, ranked 148th in the world) took place at around 2:30 p.m. In the previous round, Le Duc Phat had a hard-fought 2-1 victory over Ong Zhen Yi's compatriot, Tan Jia Jie. With the ambition to go deep in the tournament, Duc Phat is determined to overcome his 21-year-old opponent, Ong Zhen Yi, who is in good form.

The number 1 hope of Vietnamese badminton at the tournament is Nguyen Thuy Linh (ranked 26th in the world) who will compete in the round of 16 of the women's singles at around 3 p.m. The opponent of the Dong Nai player in this match is Wu Luo Yu (China, ranked 113th in the world). Nguyen Thuy Linh has a higher ranking but the players from badminton powerhouse China are always formidable, ready to create surprises. Therefore, the number 1 seed and defending champion Nguyen Thuy Linh must be very focused to aim for victory.
