Strategy and Team Composition

“With Viktor Axelsen’s withdrawal, we have a fairly clear first choice in men’s singles. We also have that in men’s doubles and mixed doubles. In women’s singles, Line and Mia are quite evenly matched, and then we have to see how we mix the cards in women’s doubles. I see several opportunities for how we can put them together,” Stavngaard stated.
Axelsen’s absence and Team Confidence
Viktor Axelsen’s absence due to an upcoming back surgery is a factor, but Coach Stavngaard remains optimistic. “We are in the fortunate situation that in Anders Antonsen we have a reasonably strong world-class card in men’s singles…You could say that we have lost one strong card, but we still have a similarly strong card in anders.”
Reserves Named for Sudirman Cup
Along with the traveling team, six reserve players have been named: Magnus Johannesen, Line christophersen, Daniel Lundgaard, Andreas Søndergaard, christine Busch, and amalie kudsk.
Tournament Outlook
the Sudirman Cup 2025 will commence on April 27, with the final scheduled for May 4. Coach Stavngaard will determine the specific match lineups during the tournament, prioritizing the team’s overall success over individual preferences.”we assess what is best for the team in the individual matches. The players know that well. What is best for the team comes before individual wishes and needs.”
