..yah, i can see that now(eventhough i didn't follow his career too closely)...I think all doubles player "should be able" to play either XD or it's specialty(WD or MD)...But it's quite rare for a doubles player to be "very consistent" in both, exceptions are KimDM and RaKM
yes, zn is making more error and less accurate shots after mid points of the 2nd set. As kwun said and what i saw a relaxed xxf on the 1st game, xxf tactci maybe is to wear zn out and finish zn off on the rubber. If ZN can compose and has enough energy left, zn still can win this
Zhang ning could have won the second set or atleast would have been close.. she had two bad line calls
Some miscellaneous comments: They just showed a bunch of empty seats. The lady commentator on CCTV5 is good. Her voice is nice and smooth and commentary is very appropriate (at least for the 10 minutes I've been watching). Anyone know who she is?
advantage for XXF....she's much younger than ZN.....too bad that ZN did not wrap up the 2nd game....I guess we need little bit more patient to see MS&MD =P
