    Jojo is trailing 9-11 and the way he is giving cheap points to Li Shifeng means that it will be an uphill task for him now.
    I think he will lose.

    So when JC's strings broke, LSF kept clearing it to the back court, almost like LSF was doing it deliberately. Is that the general strategy to play when your opponent's strings break in singles? Just keep clearing it to the opponent's back court?

    LSF has no linecall challenges left, there's still so many points to go. So he has to take his chances and play the shots if unsure it's in or out.

    I was surprised with Icuk's coment as I did not find something wrong with Jojo comment. Wade is right, bacok means slice shot which Li Shifeng used effectively in 2nd set

    CHN may have a better chance if SYQ could play.

    This medical break is very smart move by Li SF to break Jonatan's rhythm

    Yes, it is slice smash shot with more angle and precision rather than power smash

    LSF , don't expect yr opponent to lift to you knowing you have a powerful smash.

    I see. Thanks for the translation. Out of the curiosity, you're really the Indonesian legendary Icuk Sugiarto? :)[/QUOTE]

    No I'm not. He's my favorite player thou. The 1983 world championship final between him and Swie King still my favorite badminton match

    Christie is unstoppable when the opponent is tired, I remember when he beat Axelsen in french open once
