The top-seeded players are still in four of the categories after the quarter-finals at VICTOR DM 2022.
The single exception is the women’s double with Maiken Fruergaard and Sara Thygesen, as the latter had to withdraw during Thursday’s match against Amalie Cecilie Kudsk and Signe Schulz Terp-Nielsen.

Thygesen suffered a sprain in his right foot, which, the championship physiotherapist has assessed, requires a few days break.
Overall, the stars dominated most of the quarterfinal day, but there were a few surprises. In mixed doubles, two seeded couples smoked out, while it also became the exit for a seeded women’s doubles and women’s singles.
