She will next play Susanto Yulia Yoshephin of Indonesia. In their first meet two years ago in this tournament Trang came from behind to win 17-21, 21-15, 21-16.
Linh beat Yu Chien Hui, also from Chinese Taipei 21-13, 21-17. Her next rival will be No 3 seed Cheung Ngan Yi of Hong Kong.
The annual tournament will run until Sunday with US$90,000 up for grab.
