Chen Xiaoxin would do well to learn and study from Tai TY how to handle tall, fast, attacking players like Sindhu and Sung JH.
I feel the umpire should be more lenient or understanding in giving the players a bit more time, reasonably, say 3 to 5 seconds to consider whether to challenge the linecall, for getting it right is more important than anything.
Looks like Sindhu has a plan and she is executing it with perfection. A barrage of smashes have unsettled the World No.1 shuttler.
It's never a good idea, inadvisable, and almost impossible, to go all out and win every tournament, and possibly experiencing lethargy and even increasing the risk of injury. Best to peak at the right time for the tournaments you aim for while treating some of the rest as part of preparation and warm-up, as some unwinding is inevitable, as well as taking a useful and much-needed break occasionally to recharge yourself.
Why are MS matches last? I thought it was a perfect time to start Sir Lee Hyun IL vs Chinese Star Houwei. What do fellow folks at BC think?
