    Vladimir Ivanov is 6.5 feet, sluggish maybe but have deep smash and employ different game play than Chai/Hong.

    Not looking good, Gao Ling will be disappointed watching them play.

    Goh doesn't smash like TBH-- but he has much better placement-- he's shorter, so his amazingly flat backcourt half-smashes at shoulder height are really a bane to tall plays like Chai/Hong (forehand or backhand defense???!!!).

    not just that. they are very sluggish in movement too. didn't they realize this is Olympics semi final?

    the Danes are going for all the shots. which is what it should be.

    YY looks so laboring while the Danes looks like they aren't even sweating.

    If the Danes win this, do they have to thank the Korean pair..?

    I see that the danes want to win more. Yu yang seems like she just wants to rest.
