your opponent stare at you, whisper something to his partner and grin smile to you . and their intension is to loose your focus and concentration . they will do anything to win the game in tournament. what is the best thing to do?:crying:
Turn aroudn pull your pants and ..... Nah hehehe I think teh best thign to do is to ignore what apenned
as said before just ignore it...i mean yea ive done it before in games alyways smiling and grining saying stuff and trying to intimidate the other player(s) and well theres 3 things that you can do a) let it bother you, take notice and let them have what they want. b) just ignore it and dont bother dont let them try and intimidate you or anything. and i guess theres always c) just do the same thing right back...or could always do as brave_turtle said haha i wonder if anybody would actually try that.
under such circumstances, i would just assume the cheerful and friendly side of me (the universal mode for dealing with people whom one is not familiar with - i gather that the rude pig who distressed our good garyvic cannot be someone of close relation), not forgetting to let him see that i know what he is about, but am just too gallant to be bothered by his small act.
Ignore anything from ur opponents as well as their cheering crowd, just focus on the game. Also, you can smile with confidence, to let them know, their strategy never works on you.
Learn Tricks... They can intimidate you with words. But just laugh out loud, pretend that they are underestimating you. Then show off some tricks, and air smash.
how come no one has mentioned this?! why not simply NOT LOOK at your opponent?? i'm assuming the opponent is doing this inbetween rallies as opposed to during rallies.... OR, you could simply yell out "forget it! i don't swing that way!" (he IS staring and smiling at you....) purely assuming same ***...
they do timeout, tie their shoes, change shuttlecock, and they win! but if they play clean, they can't beat us. anyway, thanks guys, and im learning a lot from your replies. is there a rule in court behaviour?
LOL!!! nice one nanashi... garyvic.... approach your partner, whisper in his/her ear, look at the guy, and snicker, shrug your shoulder, shake your head and snicker some more... let him figure out what it all means.. hahaha
They'll eat the shuttle also, btw... Provided it was good I'd regret it. lol Now I understand why they say "feeding" when talking about shuttles
Dont bother about it --- best reply is to play so well until that same player is muttering curses under his breath in frustration
lol I always deal with it in 2 ways. The good way is ignoring it, if they wanna gossip on court thats fine with me, i'll just sit back and play badminton The bad way, stuff i sometimes do to cocky B players, is i focus on every single rally and wait for that one floating shot at the net and then i either a) floor it so hard that it bounces up like a basketball and stare the smiler guy down or b) i take the bird and shove down..... heheh uno and then i smile back at him and i say "Oh i'm sorry", smile, turn around, and toddle bock hehehe either way seems effective, dunno y
