Playing a rallying stroke game is not LCW's forte nor style, he's not comfortable with it, but Lin Dan does it much better and a master at it, except that he too is getting old. Father Time spares no one.
Since when we have a WC in his mid-20s having to prove his worth against two oldies in their mid-30s ? Can' think of any.
I think it's discrediting to VA's and LCW's skill to constantly focus on age and height, not that these paramets don't matter, but I hope you understand what I mean.
