    i don't think his fitness is at the level it needs to be to compete with the top players these days.
    also it's a case of motivation for him, it's a shame, i really enjoy watching taufik's matches when he's in-form and playing seriously.

    i think he is already satisfy wif his success..so it's the time to let go his career as professional badminton player slowly..the 21-point system require speed n good stamina..so,he choose to let go..:rolleyes::eek:

    Also TH has been lazy in training as well.......anyway...he has a good life and his motivation is different than before.......people argued that his loss due to his illness but eventhough he was healthy...I did not see he could be a medal contender either......TH kept saying that he wished someone could take his spot but he would not give that spot to Simon as well......I think it is time for him to step down......

    So he shouldn't backhand smash if he has a good opportunity to do so? I'm sure you wouldn't be saying that if a certain other player was known for his backhand smashes...

    :D:D as long as you did not criticise LD.....:D...cooler wont be cool anymore...:p
    Honestly all players will be slowed down when hitting certain age..of course there is some exception like Gade/Kenneth/ZN.....I am sure in few years there will be a thread " why LD keeps losing?"..I think it is normal..Also TH's real age is 29, not 27 ( I think we have reported in the thread like age cheating..)
    Markis Kido is not 23 yrs as well....;)

    hmm, not what i've seen, not with lin dan.

    2006 Japan open, TH backhand smashed once, but LD returned all the rest of them.

    2007 french Open, TH got applaused for his backhand smash on LD, but LD won the match no problem.

    lets clear the record, TH beaten LD only at:
    05 WC, 06 asian game single event,

    LD won all the rest of head to head against TH: 05 sudirman, 06 asian game team, 06 JO, 06 HKO, 07 French open,

    In 08, TH even lost to uncle WCH.
