In the Vietnam Open 2025, Hai Dang is the seventh head of series. In addition, he is the only Vietnamese tennis player who still competes in the individual male tournament.
Previously, in the qualifying round of September 9, Nguyen Tien Minh was defeated and did not get a ticket to the main round. Meanwhile, in the first round, Le Duc Phat was also eliminated in advance. Therefore, Hai Dang is the last hope of the host country.
On the afternoon of September 10, he played against Wang Yu-Kai. Both players are left -handed and have a technical game style. Therefore, the game between them was tense and exciting.
Although Hai Dang is not as high as his opponent, he has greater defensive capacity. Your persistence helps you solve difficult shots on numerous occasions. In the first set, Vietnamese had the advantage and created a 7 -point streak. He won this 21-16 set.
With the mental advantage, Hai Dang continued to play with explosiveness in the second set. He quickly advanced 11-5 and maintained the advantage. Despite some errors at the end of the set, the difference was wide enough for Hai Dang to continue winning 21-15, ensuring a pass to the second round of the 2025 Vietnam Open.
His next opponent will be the winner of the match between Puritat Arreee (Thailand) and Mithun Manjunath (India). After the victory of the first day, Hai Dang commented: «I will do everything possible and I hope at least reach the quarterfinals. The victory of the first day is very important for all athletes, since it serves as a springboard to play well in the next games ».
In female individuals, Tien Minh’s wife, Vu Thi Trang, stopped after losing Ashmita Chaliha (India) with a score of 15-21, 20-22.
