You said you will never wrong again when you predicted top 10 ranking by end of 2014. Playing like a top 10 player, I agree but a top 10 rank by the end of the year, I disagreed. Now only about 6 more months to go. She will be ranked possibly outside top 60 this week as a result of last week tournament. As I said, it is not easy climb.
Ms. Yamaguchi is truly a wunderkind! I was so sure that it was going to be two straight for Ratchanok, but Akane proved me wrong. Ganbare!
Intanon tried too hard to force the issue in G2, lost the lead and the set. Now she's in trouble in G3, 8-11 down.
Akane deserved to be in the World Championship but she does not qualify. Ratchanok will lose in the World Championship, she is not back to her form yet after injury.
Akane may be short in stature, in badminton terms, she's very quick and agile, the way she runs and runs all over the court effortlessly, retrieving many seemingly out-of-reach shots - comparable to WSX, one of the fastest mover on court. This child prodigy is even more impressive than Intanon R in her younger days. However, Akane seems to play her best badminton only against certain players so far, namely LXR and IR; I don't remember seeing her playing so well against most of the other players (not that I've seen that many of her matches, I must admit, so have to rely on the scores more often than not). Anyway, can't deny that Akane will go far,just a matter of time.
Kevin & Greysia achieved the unthinkable by ousting the world's number one pair, ZN/ZYL. They complained but is it justifiable or are they poor losers? Mohd Arif Abdul Latif's win over Kento Momota was not expected. The Japanese was at his brilliant best at the Thomas Cup tie but has been inconsistent since as shown in the Japan Open and now the Indonesian Open. Kenichi Tago is still Japan's number one MS player.
Jwala/aswini pair is on right track??? They won an indonesian pair with world ranking 11. Already, they won top 10 ranked pair in uber cup as well.. Good..
I wouldn't consider their wins in the Uber Cup as good as the circumstances they were playing in were much different and it is difficult to judge whether Jwala/Ashwini were better or their opponents crumbled under mental pressure. But today's win is certainly wonderful.
Yes jwala ashwini did it yipeeeee..but the next match will be even difficult..actually I have never seen pradipta/pia doing wonders..they are just ordinary pair...And jwala/ashwini were once better than ordinary....actually I had full faith on them!! Busanan did it 9consecutives to seal the game...
Why can't people appreciate their wins against polli/maheshwari and the HK pair...only pressure can't make u the winner...they did some thing above their potential And that should certainly be encouraged......go jwala/ashwini we want you both in top10...
