European Junior Championship

**FeintMan** · 04-11-2009, 02:39 PM

In the last World Championship of Schools (or something like that) she won the two Chineses and Taiwan's players. In Spain she beats Bin Xin Xu (she's quite good, at least here) and Zhang You.
Well! You'll see tomorrow

By now she's showing her fantastic game to the rest of the europeans, so have faith in her

**FeintMan** · 04-12-2009, 05:49 AM

Well, Anne Hald has defeated Carolina Marin, but that was a good match, wasn't it? :P
It's not bad for a 15 year-old girl.

Well, she lost. But she is a very good player indeed.
But what is the matter with her attitude? Fair play is a very beautiful thing. Not apologizing if the shuttle hit the net and passed to the other side, not polite passing the shuttle to the other player to serve... oh well, maybe it will come with age.

I know what you're saying, she's not really polite in the court, but I hope that come with age. She acted rly bad in some actions during the match.

**Ton-Min-Bad** · 04-12-2009, 02:02 PM

Great match! It was just so close!

I don't have any problems with Marin's behaviour. She's just very passionate about her sports. There are enough robotic pokerfaces running around the court IMO.

**FeintMan** · 04-12-2009, 02:12 PM

Hahaha At least I can tell you that she's rly kind outside the court and quite a happy girl. Her behaviour in the court is all about concentration, she doesn't care about what the opponent thinks, which's good.

wow, so who's winning very big here?

**KZ** · 04-13-2009, 04:26 AM

Look's like my prediction in MD is spot on. So, Ulin/Berry are slightly superior compared to the European champions, which will be good news for them in the upcoming World Juniors. We shall see who are the pairs from CHN, KOR, and MAS that will challenge the INA pair.
