she seems to be more of a runner at this point. even though she managed to get some attacking going on at the beginning of the 2nd game which caught LXR off-guard, most of her other attacking attempts either got returned or went out.
My point is all three i.e. LXR, IR and TTY started in the international circuit at about the same time, LXR at 19, IR and TTY at 15/16, and in this two years LXR has already surpassed the other two. No point comparing their relative ages, the most you can say is "at age 15-17, IR and TTY are the best in the world". Don't worry, I believe IR and TTY are still the best hopes in the rest of the world,it's just a matter of time they will rise to the Chinese challenge - this two girls are hardly out of their teens, as they mature so will their game as long as they persevere;that's what I hope to see one day.
It's like saying, at age 17 Taufik was already among the best in the world, top 2 or 3, where were Lin Dan and Lee CW then? So what,what's the point. It only proved for players below age 20, Taufik was the greatest perhaps; maybe Zhao Jianhua at 19 winning the the All-England,which at that time was equivalent to the world championship is comparable.
hmm,no point comparing their age? then what's the point comparing achievement at different age?confused
no one is comparing tai+ratchanok against li xue rui only u comparing li xue rui with tai+ratchanok so ur example is not valid. he is just asking how was li xue rui and han li doing on their 14-16?
Live streaming at badmintonlink ended? Wonder where else we can watch the rest of the matches online.
Ladies and Gentlemen,introducing Chen Xiaojia (who's she? coming from nowhere),the conqueror of world no.5, Saina Nehwal (and no.1 in the ROW). That's why I was sighing and placing my hopes on IR and TTY, followed by Sung JH, Mitani M, Carolina Marin,... (who else?)
