Strange that Yongbo decides to field Bao CL in such crucial match rather than opting for Chen Hong. Bao has the weakest mental strength among the five Chinese singles players!
Bao can't keep the rally for long as he makes mistakes earlier than Ken, Ken will take this set soon This is typical Bao since I first saw him playing, he's weak mentally and loses focus easily Game, 15 - 12
Denmark might score another history in Jakarta, after beating Indonesia, now they will take the Cup home for the first time ever
Bao is quite unbelievable sometimes.... he sped up, got tons of points, when he reached 12, he just says, "enough" and stopped trying there. kinda like ChenHong's old tactic. but ChenH usually speed up again... Go Bao! show him what you've got!! maybe he has graduated, a tactic trying to tire out Jonassen?
I think Bao deserves a chance to shine, because he has immense talent, and could be better than Chen Hong given the opportunity. I feel sorry for Chen Hong though, as he had to sit out the last Thomas Cup and see Bao lose in his place. However Bao's badminton brain is not as quick nor intelligent as others, you see him slow to react to situations sometimes, and sometimes bamboozled. In comparison, Lin Dan is sometimes shaken but never stirred, nothing fazes him.
Bao's body language isn't like the beginning of first game. to be honest, i think he looks tired. that's is really strange. 3-2 Jonassen. Jia You!!!
