    Marin and Lindan have won so many titles, Marin in 2015 has won 5 titles excluding World Championship, so dont compare Sindhu with them

    Meh, Ou is worse than LC.
    LC was a lot more experienced when he first started specialized in MD.

    Hopefully they would let siwei play MD after the olympics and pair him up with zhang nan.

    Ok. I simply wanted to point out some athletes such as CM and LD tended to focus on big events. A strategy that paid off for them. PVS doesn't have the same career (yet) but I find a similar pattern in the way she is handling her season. I also believe it's hard to focus on many tournaments and give it all during a season and instead it can be easier to solely focus on big events. But that's just my opinion ;).

    Sindhu has her own legendary status Just like LD,CM and LCW have and to reach their level is not easy...No One is comparing Sindhu with Others all players have different achievements and are known for their own standards..which a lot of SO CALLED NO.1s dream to achieve who dont even have their first Major Bronze let alone their first Biggest Tittle.An Olympic Gold medalist will be compared to Olympic Silver Medalist not a Super series player who has not even reached the bronze medal match of the Biggest tournaments...People hope to see Sindhu turn her OG silver to Gold..cause she already has the Biggest Silver in the World and her RIVAL in the eyes of people is CM and will always be CM cause they have been against each other in the Olympics and World Championships and you may like it or not but Olympic and WC finals give birth to rivalries.

    Best Players are always compared to those who they have been against in their biggest battles and not other minor players...its common sense.

    Zhang Nan is becoming first /second round exit specialist.. He was so good with Zhou Yun Lei.. Really need to find him a decent partner to play. Such a wasted talent

    Yeps..She is a Big tournament player and anyone who denies that needs to go google her name and her Consecutive MAJOR PODIUM FINISHES
    2013 - WC Bronze ( MAJOR )
    2014 - WC Bronze ( MAJOR )
    2015 -
    2016 - OG SILVER ( MAJOR )
    2017 - WC SILVER ( MAJOR )
    2018 - WC SILVER ( MAJOR )
    2018 - WTF GOLD
    2019 - WC GOLD ( MAJOR )

    Im not even counting her CWG and AG silvers lolz haha

    So I would be more surprised if she loses in OG/WC without a podium finish than these regular tournaments.

    The last time I checked it was only Zhang Ning who had the simillar Medals at WC as PVS which is a dream achievement for many NAMESAKE No.1s who are looking to get their first Major Bronze :D lolz
