#2 Youngest player in the top 10
The brutal rankings system of badminton is hard to keep up with. You need to keep winning regularly in order to stay atop the rankings and while India's hope PV Sindhu currently sits second overall, her position could be in danger if she stumbles at upcoming events.
Creeping up the ladder is China's Yufei however, and now ranked 10th in the world, she has become the youngest player in the current list of top 10 players to be there. With the likes of Marin, Okuhara and Intanon also in the mix, the list of top women's players looks exciting to say the least. At just 19-years-old, the future looks incredibly bright for Yufei and her best is surely yet to come.
