I am Chinese but I agree with you on this point. I think if possible, Zhang Jun would make it 100%. Anyway, non-Chinese female players' defence are usually too weak, far below the level Ra Kyungmin and Rikke Olsen used to held.
To exploit your opponents' weaknesses and play away from their strengths is the foundation to winning matches. They feel that the lady has less chance of getting smashes back so naturally that's where they aim most of their attacks. The sad fact is that the lady having the weaker defence is almost always true in my eyes with the exception of Nova/Lilyana and very few others.
LWW/CTF really "Yi Lai Meng". Always can take the 2nd seat. 3 pairs in the semi-finals, but cannot take the title
no offence but isn't that natural ? to beat the weak point of your opponent i think why they don't attack Gao a lot is because she is very good in defence
over : md, xd now going : ws coming up: wd,ms(don't know the order) btv6 is broadcasting try to find it on pplive, good luck
TVkoo is several points behind. Any stream on coolstream or pplive? Also, the window on TVkoo is rather small and not expandable. It is sharp though and after being on a while the buffer is finally stable.
zhang ning jia you get ur AE!! lol...about the smashing....is Lin Dan bad for picking on LCW's backhand side yesterday? Is it honourable for the guys to smash at zhang jun rather than gao ling as he usually isn't as sharp with his defence
Of course it is not honorable to smash at the weaker player. To be honorable, you must always play to the opponents' strength and give them every possible chance to win -- LOL .
Mental toughness That's why the Chinese dominates in Badminton, regardless how bad it looks in semi or how great it looks for the opponents, Chinese will win most of the events in the final. Mental toughness is hard to teach ...
can't get tvkoo to work on my computer........ anybody has a link for pplive??? I wanna watch :crying:
Well, it's very subjective. However, if LCW has a weak backhand, that is his own fault. If Gail's defence is not as strong as Nathan's, that is not her fault. Here lies the difference between "attacking the weak player" in MD and "attacking the female player" in XD. I myself feel a bit uneasy if I have to attack the girl to win. Anyway I suck big in playing badminton, so my opinion does not matter at all.
TVkoo just crashed. Maybe it is because I was opening PPLive simultaneuosly. I am getting it to restart but have to load up the buffer all over again. XXF is leading . XXF might be fighting back for number 1 after a short lull after the WC.
hello ..just found about the streaming on TVKoo..I'm still looking for the right channel.could somebody let me know how many users are on the stream..maybe that will help me identify the right one. Counting 19 down I ended with a programm showing two women on a sofa chatting
