Despite being continuously behind, the number 1 Vietnamese tennis player still stubbornly kept up, successively equalizing 15-15, 18-18, even taking the lead 19-18 but unfortunately lost 19-21 in set 1. In set 2, when trailing 0-3, Thuy Linh proactively asked to give up, giving the right to continue to Yeo Jia Min. Before that, she showed signs of fatigue and lethargy when competing right from the first set.

Sharing on her personal page, Thuy Linh apologized to her fans: "Sorry everyone. Today's result is something Linh or any athlete did not want. I myself never want to see a "quit" line in my competition history.

I also went out on the field and tried my best, but my feet and ankles have been very painful for the past few days, making it impossible for me to move normally. Before the match, Linh also consulted a doctor and was warned that if she was not careful, she could get a more serious injury, even a torn ligament."
