mak hee chun/tan wee kiong

Yes. Sometimes the players make the coach look good... LYD.

 

Lee Chong Wei as well..

 

i don't think so tkh is over-rated

maybe he over-rated some players after surfing bc lol

 

Yup, even more so. Lol.

But Tan Kim Her is strict. That's good.

 

Mak hee chun was playing well with Teo Kok Siang. Even in their last match (copenhagen a few years back). Why did they split them?

Now TKS is doing well with GohWS. And i initially thought Mak was the stronger of the two.

 

It's not skills that separates them. It is mental toughness and confidence which clearly separates Mak Hee Chun and his former partner Teo Kok Siang. Mak Hee Chun/Tan Wee Kiong can beat Goh Wei Shem/Teo Kok Siang but why is GWS/TKS rated higher and able to give top pairs better fights?
MHC and TWK doesn't have the mental strength to play in crucial matches. Teo Kok Siang has it. That's what I believe after reading many pieces of news and comments from BCers about them.

 

Teo has GWS to thank, I consider GWS better than TKS overall. When they were juniors, Mak was better than TKS as the MD specialist, TKS was from MS. Mak is ok actually but to me he remained stagnant since the WJC in 2008 while TKS has improved, esp in stamina.

 

Hmm, I think GWS is the most 'complete' player among the whole gang.

 

Despite not individually stronger than either GWS or MHC, i'm sure TKS brings something of added value to the partnerships... Imust admit I am surprised he is doing quite well in doubles so far. As I too initialy wrote him off and gave the credit to MHC for the (ex)pair's successes.

 

However, it's not that Tan Wee Kiong is playing badly... MHC has also failed to bring significant improvement into his game. Both of them contributed errors.

 

Actually, nothing surprise me here.......I have seen they played before....nothing special and this Copenhagen result is expected but not like this bad. Worse than what i expected !

 

Have not seen him play..how 'complete' is complete? Mental toughness, skills, power??..wonder if there a video of them ??

GWS is the more skinny one, slightly taller than TKS

 

Or can say the right hander

 

Thanks a million Hope to see them more often on TV from now on

 

it was half a year ago but still good

and while watching just keep in mind

they should have improve a bit here and there

and thanks, eagle

 

i saw some trend now, maybe MHC/TWK got high rating by beating teammates
KKk/TBH and the other 2 back-up horse...when face other countries opponents
they freezed...

 

Yes, it seems like that................

 

CHN MD2 is as good as our MD1... sigh... where is our MD2? still playing at masak tourneys? still boleh?

SS Final 2010:
BIAO CHAI / NAN ZHANG (CHN) beat BOON HEONG TAN / KEAN KEAT KOO: 14-21 21-15 21-17

 

Remember, now CB/ZN being very dangerous to top pairs, our one home tournament also cannot play, the CPS/LKW that beat them 6 months ago. Wait, is that our MD2?
