Tribute to WS greatest ever player: Susi " the Ballerina" Susanti

[Fortune]

Very provocative.Some can praise a player as they please, but should other disagree, better not to put nasty discredit like this.YZY achievements is ... where is her OG gold? 96? No. It's BSH, 2000? She was ordered to lose to GZC. 2004? Oh she was retired. 1992? Oops.. Susi won at age 21, and err .. YZY was too young of 18 yrs. Some say if not won in young age, she is not good, Eh?

Winning OG doesn't mean you are a great player. LLW and HAP no OG Gold, but they was greater than Susi. About OG 92, Susi was lucky to win OG 92. Ye can't compete in OG 92 bcoz of several reasons. if Ye eligible for OG, then it is no problem for her to beat Susi. After lost tamely to SS (2 - 11, 0 - 11), Ye knows very well SS's style, that's why even though she was not focus in WS, playing Swedish - AE - French (4 - 5 - 3), but Ye still can win against the fresh and focus Susi. Easy for Ye. That's why I said, susi was lucky to win OG. Other factor : Susi didn't meet TJH. Lucky again.http://www.tournamentsoftware.com/fi...33E64CC&q=1940

GZC gold medal 2000 was tainted, YZY was ordered to lose to her.BSH, She never won WC. So, with slightly better achievement of Susi had, why they should looks down to Susi? Where is the logic?

Winning OG 92 by luck, that's why they dare to looks down Susi. And they proved they are right ! They win the duel, right ? Anyway, what I said before : they looks down AE (or they looks down to Susi ?) ... Means I'm not so sure they looks down to AE or Susi...but in the case of LLW and GZC, it was clear, they looks down to Susi and also AE !

LLW, HA both are Susi's idol, were unlucky to not having OG held on their era. In my opinion, if they are at same era, there would be good rivalry.

LLW retired at the age of 25, with the status of World #1 and also World Champion...plus demolish Susi with easily (for details, see post #89). After LLW retired, 27 years old HAP become World #1. Until LLW and HAP retired, Susi can't win even 1 title...and Susi can't overtake them in World Ranking. Good rivalry ? Keep dreaming ! Hahaha

ZN is comparable to Susi, maybe slightly better in achievement (despite of OG 2008 are some considered as a bit controversy of her won over XXF)

OG 2004 or OG 2008 ? OG 2004, win one (the first set) win all. So, both ZN and ZM put all of their best effort in the first set rather than normal game. So I say : 50% cheat ! OG 2008, whoever win, it will create history as the only WS players to win 3 major titles !

Ehm, btw, ZN never won AE, although she participated most of her years career. So, Susi might not be the only one greatest, but she is definitely one of the greatest WS.

AE was nothing for China players include Zhang Ning. No AE no problem

"Winning OG doesn't mean you are a great player."

This should go down in the list of quotes.
