Yes I agree on that but its silly....there should be buildup, not like that should be like the one in malaysia random. Play the same country matches first, its ok if its random but not too random that the same map is playing too far apart timing wise
Natsir should have retired, she shouldnt be even there. you can see she is playing like 50% only. It wouldnt baffled me if the organizer put Ahmad/Natsir vs Tan/Lai QF to be match in the first match such is the absurdness.
Chow/Lee wasted three match points at 20-17 by just defending instead of trying to win points from Chen/Jia.
Depends on drift conditions-- if their match gets scheduled later in the day/ evening when the drift stabilizes, LCW might try out his other shots... If you want or can only play "your style" regardless of playing conditions, then you might as well save yourself for the "right time" like Chen Long (which LD & LCW is also beginning to do) or risk going home early like Matsutomo/ Takahashi... Consistency in the professional circuit comes from adapting to the playing conditions as well as your opponents.
Kevin and Marcus are not like Setiawan/ Tan or their other seniors-- even on their off-days, the seniors still have lots of deceptive blocks, crosses, drops, etc. in their bag of tricks when they cannot run and their smashes don't work.
Wow. Russians won it. Very happy for Ivanov/sozonov. They came from way behind and nailed it. Sent from my SM-G600FY using Tapatalk
Vivian/Woon can't even get ten points? That is some poor showing. I am not surprised when they get excluded from World Championship. Hey, I am surprised they are still together.
Ivanov/Sozonov did came from wayy behind. They earned it. The Danes however couldn't win even when they had so much advantage.
Ahsan/Hendra is one of the best pairs i have seen. They are pair for the big occasions beaten Lee/Yoo 5 times. 1 of the pair that really has almost equal H2H record vs Lee. (beating him in AsianGamesIncheon, WC 2015, and Dubai 2015) but Ahsan/Hendra is the past. If you ask me, Kevin Sanjaya is nicer to watch than Ahsan/Hendra. He is more entertaining on the court because of his speed. However, today is one of the worst match they have played. btw, Hendra is tall. He looked quite intimidating with Tan. One of the best attributes of KSS that i have seen so far is his Final MatchPedigree . That makes him like Hendra - a winner who rarely lose in Final, i guess. Agree?
kev/gid only lose 3 times this year 1. vs bo/mo - tired after winning 3 consecutive ss titles 2. vs bo/mo - close match 3. vs ast/ras - kevin has shoulder injury correct me if i am wrong kevin is more complete than setiawan or tan. let alone ahsan faster. no doubt about it correct me if i am wrong again
Li/Liu only lost 4 times. Boe/Mo only lost 2 times this year i think. So i think its not about that. Most important is titles won.
