You make this sound like a bad thing. Plus, I wouldn't call that game just yet. Saina is tactically brilliant and she surely will make this more even than the game in Denmark.
Sorry for my ignorance (and bad English), I'm pretty new in this sport. I don't understand how is that possible for Akane Yamagushi due to her unfavorable height, small legs and disadvantaged build (she's not really fit) to be as good as she is. Is that because her technical skills are far beyond the others players?
she's not visually 'fit', most would say... But OMG, wait until you see her play Friday (if she makes it). You will become a fan of hers.
ahsan partnered with kevin before i think although it wasn't permanent. there's a video of them on youtube if you wanna see. i think it was an event on bali.... badminton league or something. personally i don't think ahsan kevin is a good idea.. both of them needs stable partner

Yes! Watch her play and one will understand. Against all her physical odds, she proved what a warrior she is and many people rooting for her because of that.
ahsan/sukamuljo is a good pairing? What a joke! Sukamuljo is creative in the front. Ahsan is no longer the player playing at the back. He also would like to play in the front. All in all it is an even worse pairing.
Both of them also suffer from a huge difference in talent with their own respective pairings right now as well.
Though small, she is VERY fit. Have you seen someone as quick on the court? And she is not afraid of three setters.
Honestly it angers me to see someone like Yamaguchi play so well She's a literal block of cheese. She resembles a mini-refrigerator. Would much rather have Tai, Nozomi, PV Sindhu, Carolina, or Intanon dominating than Yamaguchi.
Because a world where everybody has to be beautiful is so much better. Frankly I don't care if you have fantasies about Yamaguchi; what matters to me is her ability to play, and that's something she excels at. She is a significant part of the reason WS has developed so wonderfully in the last few years, and she has brought many techniques and tactics to the game. Furthermore, her personality as I have seen it is to be admired.
Well firstly she isn't "dominating" so take a chill pill Secondly "angers"? Have you seen anybody more astoundingly amusing, somebody of her body "structure" moving so fluently, so swiftly and those lovely angles she makes, which might look a little too "casual" or unpolished, but man she can execute it perfectly. Personally I sometimes think even her opponent wait for a moment to see, and go "woh man how on earth she got that one back"
Where is the dislike button lol...I just dont understand the need to bash or hate on players. Its a treat to see someone like Akane overcome her physical limitations and beat other taller players through hardwork and dedication
Absolutely, so nonchalant so casual so friendly so humble. You can never tell she's competing at the top of the "fiercest" discipline while her opponent is more often than not shouting, grunting, fist pumping, panting
