    I sort of Agree with you...I feel so sad for her because not only did she mention that its her dream to win an Oly Medal but also it was her mother's dream as well.

    I like both RI and TTY though not my favs but 2020 Tokyo was probably the best chance for both of them to get the biggest medal of their career and I feel so sad for May but I feel happy for Tai too...and I know in 24 It may not be possible for May to stand at the OLY Podium given the rise of ASY,KGE,WZY,WZM and others.

    I hope May finds the spirit of Marin and Sindhu at Oly and somehow ups her game like these two at Olympics....Ratchanok is one name that Deserves an Oly Medal NO,CM,PVS,TTY and RI all the batchmates have them except Queen of 13.

    I dont think Minions will be separated (just like AhsanHendra). They win and lose together. Semifinal is still really good result and they played their best matches today, just that FikriMaulana is so impressive.

    Everyone except ratchanok and maybe Marin does it but CY/ASY are just better at it.

    I dont think Bagas is that convincing either, do you think his smash is stronger than Rian?
    I feel like Fikri is just as good in front and behind (with lethal smashes as well).

    I think FikriDaniel will be more deadly.

    If you are a badminton fan, you would know history. If you know history , you would know why Zhang Yiman and He bingjiao gave walkover to Chen Yufei.

    It's not even about the smash, bagas is simply more dependable when there's pressure. what's the point of having deadly smash when you keep giving the opponent free points when the situation gets tight

    I will never forget how rian cost fajar that AE title in 2019

    gotta give it to Higashino. she's actually playing really well in a long time. Watanabe is also back on form it seems (no more niggling injuries, etc.)

    Bagas/Fikri vs Minions was an insanely classic MD match.....stunning flat game and reflexes

    Daniel Marthin? Did you see yesterday's matches?? He missed so many smashes, which were either returned, into the net or out!

    Praveen Jordan would be the only one who comes to my mind, can remember the game when Christinna Pedersen and Joachim Fischer Nielsen had to pick up almost every one of his disguised drops
