    WSX is disgusted and looked very fierce.

    MAS coaches are great for skills training but they are no class in tactics. Would be worse if LCW depends on the coaches. The only time I saw LCW looked prepared tactically against LD was in TC08 in Jakarta and it was anchored on speed. LD has since always appear tactically prepared whereas LCW s just responding. LCW gotta do intensive video homework, there s no shortcut.

    My heart cannot take it. If WSX loses the rubber,it's going to be worse agony for me. Why didn't Tine just finish her off in two?!

    well, pretty close 2nd game. WSX looks scary but at the same time, determined.

    TB being moved around much more and not able to unleash her power smashes.

    TB pushed on service return. find the line. WSX halt a little in front of the linejudge.

    i was fearing the life of the linejudge. he/she may not live through to do the same job tomorrow.

    LD is not in peak form though. He was on cruise control in the 2nd set, playing defensive and not smashing much against LCW. The LD in peak form is the one that will unleash a barrage of smashes, as in the 2008 OG.

    Today's LD was "cruise control" Dan, not the "super dan" from OG 2008.

    Don't worry,Tine,just keep firing your bazookas and this 3rd game is yours for the taking.

    Good observation and analysis unlike some who went over the moon for LD "convincing" victory over LCW.

    Whatever it was, LD was definitely the better player today and deserve to win in straight sets.
