I sense it's a little different this time. LD's lack of playing has really knocked him off kilter. It's like he having difficulty rediscovering his rhythm. Throw in questions about his desire and his aging body, and you can see why there is cause for concern. Of course if he sweeps all before him (especially LCW), all doubts will be removed
yup it's true.. it's all depends on LD's ranking by august... recently, LD keep on dropping from 2nd to 5th.. i still hope LCW n LD will meet in the final...
I wonder if he has had enough time and practice to ramp up to his accustomed playing speed. It'll be a good gauge of where he is and what he needs to work on in the month leading to the TC. I think I'm getting off topic
The World Championships event is 24 weeks away . And then, the outcome of 2010 TC 1st before talking about the WC this year. The TC is only 4 weeks away. But the WC is 24 weeks away. It's still a long wait for the WC after TC finished. .
well, lcw wont be competing in bac... hopefully he can maintain his performance for other malaysian players such as hafiz, tan chuen seang, this is their only chance to shine... best of luck to them
Errr LD won ABC, MAY BE he has recover ? Hard to predict a Lcw bs Ld match since they didn't have a match yet this year :s
LD still has the sharpness in his game... i was surprised with his performance in ABC... in the final, he seems like having a practice match against wang zhengming... LCW, train harder... U can beat LD hehehe
Lin Dan... is not as good as in Beijing2008... but he doesn't got huge pressure now as China has overall Strength!
The fact is that LD seems to have lost his motivation for winning... Perhaps if he sees Lcw winning so many titles he would have a motivation-recovery or something
