Badminton history was rewritten at the YONEX All England Open 2025 as An Se Young and Wang Zhi Yi engaged in an extraordinary 79-shot rally, breaking the previous record for the longest rally in women’s singles. The previous benchmark of 73 shots was set by PV Sindhu and Nozomi Okuhara in their epic 2017 World Championships final. In a breathtaking showdown at the Utilita Arena in Birmingham, An Se Young edged out Wang Zhi Yi 13-21, 21-18, 21-18 to claim her second All England title. However, it was their marathon rally that stole the spotlight, surpassing Sindhu and Okuhara’s legendary exchange from eight years ago. That historic 2017 rally had left both players drained, with Okuhara collapsing on the court after the intense exchange. Similarly, in the 2025 final, An and Wang’s endurance, precision, and resilience captivated fans, making it one of the greatest rallies ever witnessed in the sport.
