    Yes. Sun Jun should have continued as China coach. Continue with the juniors and bring them up.

    Well I was 100% sure he had already become World Champion when SYQ beat LD after LCW and SWH withdrawals..

    Me too, so tame, so conservative, letting KM dictate the rallies, reactive most of the time

    SYQ is only good against Chinese players


    He struggles to beat anyone else

    You have to watch other threads. People will say he is the best player of the year. It only takes on big tournament. (Sorry, couldn't resist...)

    Right.
    BWF should never use that drawing system again.

    There is no geo-block in most of Europe either so you could try Finland or Netherlands as well for example ...

    KM's path to the final is rosy but he played his best on final's day to beat SYQ who seemed clueless how to play him.

    Same, hoped for drama.
    But 1. Momota plays so accurate and smooth SYQ can't attack, esp off position, combined with KM counterattack and defense it makes not too much sense to go all out
    2. SYQ didn't find his form today, not relaxed enough, but it was his first big final, esp after being finally confirmed chn new no. 1 MS!
    Up to this WC most asked themselves if CL, LD can come back at the big stage...

    I think the organizer was wise to put MD last. At least the home country has a fighting chance to win it.

    I honestly believe KM didn't even need his best to beat SYQ.
