In the men's doubles semifinals on Saturday, Takuro Hoki and Yugo Kobayashi of Japan beat Chinese pair Li Junhui and Liu Yu Chen in straight sets, 21-19 and 21-13, to meet Mohammad Ahsan and Hendra setiawan of Indonisia in the final.
In the men's singles semifinals, Denmark's Anders Antonsen swept his rival Kantaphon Wangcharoen of Thailand, 21-15 and 21-10, to challenge the top-seeded and defending champion Kento Momota of Japan in the final.
In the women's doubles, Japan has already secured the champion after second seed Yuki Fukushima/Sayaka Hirota defeated Chinese duo Du Yue/Li Yinhui 21-11, 21-17, while another Japanese pair Mayu Matsumoto and Wakana Nagahara crushed their Indonesian rivals Greysia Polii and Apriyani Rahayu 21-12, 21-19.
Having advanced only to the mixed double among the overall five finals this year, the Chinese badminton legion has so far set the worst record in its history of the world championships.
Since its debut at the World Championships in 1983, the Chinese team has already participated in 22 such competitions, harvesting two champions every time except in 1993 and 1995 when only one gold was captured each year but with two players or pairs entering the finals.
