Well, Lin Dan needs 34 mins to overcome Derek Wong Zi Liang, the scoreline is much better than two previous rounds Next, defending champion Wang ZM most likely will be his semifinal opponent tomorrow.
Well, Derek failed to give Lin Dan a rude shock but did his famous opponent a favour by awakening him.
Too bad the livestream has stopped, otherwise I'm sure the Cai/Lu vs Li Junhui/Liu Yuchen match must be exciting to watch.
You're most welcome. And in case, it starts buffering (and hangs there), simply refresh the page, that's what I do (it won't happen too often if your broadband speed is high enough).
Thanks a lot for posting the video, I get to watch it again at my own time. Very positive attitude from Derek Wong, persistent to the very end, not overawed by the occasion or the opponent. Excellent commentaries, from Hong Gang,the storyteller, and Gong Weijie, the technical analyst.
There is nothing wrong with eating rice . LOL Nice to see Lin Dan in action. He does look rusty. I fancy a young player with lots of energy and consistency to beat him.
SEMIFINALS (2 sessions, 12.00pm & 07.00pm, 1 court) => https://www.tournamentsoftware.com/...412A4B-D8FA-47EA-B08C-5FD6C454AB60&d=20140419 Five foreign representatives in semifinal, who'll deny all CHN finals tomorrow? First match should be interesting encounter, Wei Nan often deliver trouble for CHN MS, this time he will challenge Tian Houwei who expected to storm into elite level soon. H-2-H 1-0 for Tian who defeated Wei in rubber games, Macau Open last November.
I think next week , if no one here, at the BAC, K Srikanth has the youthfulness, energy, and exuberance to create a sensation as Lin Dan's first round opponent. The early birds stand a better chance of doing it for as time goes by or as tournament goes by, it gets harder for obvious reasons.
THW had better learn to anticipate WN's tight net play and scintillating smashes if he doesn't want to be dictated to.
Yup, you can lift the shuttle to WN's deep forehand or backhand corners but don't give him enough time to get behind the shuttle or he'll thunder down the smash.
