Lee Hyo Jung calls it quit

[ctjcad]

...She does have inconsistent plays/mistakes in some matches but actually I think she plays better in crucial matches as seen in those OG, AG, UC final games.

..my nickname for her: Lee Hyde-jung and Lee Hyo-jekyll..

Well, everybody has good and bad days. I don't think it's that necessary to make nicknames like that when nobody can be perfect everyday. Maybe your nickname for her highlights how good she can be, so it contrasts when she makes some mistakes. But in my opinion, every player is like that to certain degree...

But it's just me, I'm just a bit sensitive around these nickname stuff...it's just my opinion...I just wanted to throw it out there as my 2 cents...I'll erase this comment if some people find it offensive...no offense intended..

LYD said he's no longer doing XD. I thought he was just gonna rest XD for awhile but it seems that he will just play MD from now on.

I think he will defend his XD Og TITLE.
Just waiting for a suitable partner in XD for him to pair up

Somehow, it's a good news because, even before his arm injury, i always founded that LYD was better in a discipline and go further in a tournament when he lost in the other (except in the WC 2009).

well if that's true, then he has only a few months to find a partner before qualification starts. Realistically though, I think he will stay with MD, and I would be looking for some pair from China to win at OG2012

off topic:
..LYD winning back-2-back XD OG title is a bonus, but imo, he should focus to get the OG MD title instead..
