Frankly, I don't blame JC going for the lines as much as possible in his smashes and risking errors, for anything less against Chen Long usually comes back with little for him to work on. That's how most players feel they have to do when playing an on-the-boil Chen Long.
I just enjoy the screaming KOR WD pair, especially Kong Hee Yong, i might have a mental weirdness or something. That is one heck of a defensive return by SSC, while laying on the floor.
finally, the last match playing. so far the matches are good. no regret staying up late to watch them.
India MD coach used to be coached by Indonesia's back when he was a pro player (Flandy - Herry). Interesting
When the Minions just play steady, they actually win more points. When they speculate and making wild drive, it actually backfire more often than not in this game.
KSS is pretty annoyed by SRR, i wonder why ? ..... a bit too easily triggered, or just mind game ? One more SS title for Kevin & Sinyo, congratulation.
Indian pair did not play well today as if they played the whole tournament. They both were doing so many unforced errors. First big final. Hoping for more finals from them in the near future. Good luck guys. Am out.
yeah ShettyRR is nervous towards the end. you always want to play nervous players, always ask to towel during the end of matches..
This MD final is a bit anti climax, oh well INA fans should be happy with another two SS titles in a tournament, in an european tour especially.
Reasons for the loss of Satwik/Chirag: 1) Minions were simply better. 2) Indian pair was nervous due to playing against WR 1 in finals or due to Kevin in front court. 3) Indian pair didn't play their normal game or shall I say they weren't allowed to. No problem. This match taught a lot is to be done if you want to be a contender for next year Olympics medal. I think we should look at positives as we didn't expect them to even reach this final. Congratulations to Minions and good luck Satwik/Chirag for future.
He's getting too sensitive these days I think, getting triggered too easily. I don't remember him being this sensitive 2 years ago. I think this indian pair is pretty nice, especially when you compared it to boe/conrad or choi/seo
