So how good do you think Tang Jin Hua is?? She recently won the Denmark Open 2012 with Ma Jin. She plays the backcourt while Ma Jin takes the net. How do you think she compares to Tian Qing and Wang Xiaoli, who also play the back court? Overall, I was impressed with her attitude, defense, and court sense. But I found that her power was not as great as either TQ or WXL. Still, MaJin/TangJinHua can make a very powerful team.
CHN's WD discipline is in good hands, four solid,formidable pairs, fearsome. A bit early to gauge Tang Jinhua's standing vis-a-vis her compatriots as back court doubles player but I agree they are in the same league and that's what matters as their internal rivalry is their own concern. For Li YB, he has commented on Bao/Zhong as the WD pair to take over the mantle; after yesterday's DEN Open WD Final, he will be more than happy to have another pair in Ma Jin/Tang Jinhua to get his nod.
http://sports.sina.com.cn/others/badmin/2019-05-16/doc-ihvhiqax9077458.shtml Tang Jinhua has just announced her retirement on her weibo(microblog) today (16th May 2019). Born 1992, Jan 8th, she is only 27 years old now. Note: I posted the above yesterday on the Chinese badminton thread, unaware there's a Tang Jinhua thread.
Thank you Justin. I'm sorry I didn't search the other thread before I post my question here. It's a sad news, since I think she still has potential with the right partner.
Saw some of her videos on Facebook and though they are short (Tiktok/Douyin lengths), they are good, with some details not explained by many coaches before, especially for some of the videos at intermediate/advanced levels.
