Nice when your body is young and Lean like Kevin. Do people just gets fatter and bigger as they grow older..?
It seems like marcus only start training this week, and the coach said that he's not 100% yet. I don't think he'll be at his best at indonesia open next week. still hope they can retain their title though.
Marcus had to tend to his sick baby. He also got sick due to his baby's illness. He is recovered now. Looking at the Japan Open draw, all of CHN MDs are drawn in the same half as minions. If the situation permits, minions can destroy all of CHN MDs. Just look at this possibility. R1 - He/Tan R2 - Ou/Zhang QF - Han/Zhou SF - Li/Liu It will be very satisfying if minions can do that, if it's possible.
Well, they beaten 3 CHN pairs and 2 JPN pairs at MalaysiaOpen17. JO draw looks difficult. Hope they can do their best and for some withdrawals.
Ou/Zhang in R2? That's too early They did it in Fuzhou China Open last year. Hope they can repeat. Marcus better be prepared, Kevin too.
As long as minions win With Marcus not fully prepared after his illness, I guess we will hear more of their "not enough preparation" post-match speeches from them.
Minions' match is scheduled tomorrow on the first day at the last match of the day. What a way to make the crowds stay till the end of the Day 1. Any live streaming for IO this time by Djarum? I do hope minions will be scheduled on the later half of Day 1 or even better Day 2 in JO
Watching their training session it seems like they're back to their fast & furious style, not changing the pace much...and they're having a hard time killing the shuttle.
MD is very competitive now. you cant say its as obvious as MS/XD in terms of who is going to be the Champion.
Minions barely survive against inoue/kaneko, don't know what happen with kevin, he was playing so bad.
But he was back in business for the last few points, so I don't think it's something we should worry about tomorrow afterwards.
probably just adaptation or something. We can't really expect him to play great throughout the tournament.
He need to stop playing around and act like it's some exhibition game, so annoying to watch him play like that especially in the first game.
