Vietnamese tennis star shoots up ATP rankings

Nam’s breakthrough followed his excellent performance in the final of the Challenger 50 Bangkok Open 2022, which is part of the ATP Challenger Tour system, in Thailand over the weekend.

Despite losing to Monaco’s No. 1 player Valentin Vacherot in the final, the runner-up title came with a US$3,050 prize and awarded Nam 30 more accumulated points in the ATP rankings.

These 30 points sent Nam from 328th place to 290th in the world rankings with a total of 169 points.

Since the beginning of June, the Vietnamese tennis star has jumped a total of 187 notches in the ATP rankings after four championships and one second prize in the ITF World Tennis Tour tournaments and one runner-up title in the ATP Challenger Tour.

“He is the first athlete in Vietnam’s tennis history to reach the final of an ATP Challenger Tour event,” said Tran Quoc Phong, Nam’s coach, adding that the Vietnamese tennis player is preparing for two more tournaments in the ATP Challenger Tour system in Thailand to achieve a higher world ranking before returning home.

Red Vermicelli: Dak Lak’s Delicious Delicacy

Image
Buon Ma Thuot not only has premium coffee with a unique delicious taste, but also many other famous delicacies such as wine, marinated chicken, fragrant rice tubes, and especially the excellent red vermicelli. Red vermicelli is a popular specialty of Dak Lak. Although there are some similarities with vermicelli in the South, the famous red vermicelli in the “capital of coffee” is very different. It has big, firm vermicelli, similar to Southern beef vermicelli but slightly better, about the size of a chopstick, chewy and crispy. Different from sophisticated dishes like pho in Hanoi, vermicelli with fish in Quy Nhon, bun bo Hue, or vermicelli in Can Tho, Ban Me red vermicelli is extremely rustic, strange, and especially delicious. At first glance, red vermicelli is quite similar to crab vermicelli, but this dish is made from pure crab meat, pureed pork and fat, vegetables, bean sprouts, and of course, boiled quail eggs.
