yup. it is like that. unfortunately. case in point. i was reading some fb post by some USA fan, their comment for a match is usually like: it is now <so and so> vs. China. my reaction is, that "China" player has a name, and the US player is not playing against China. but instead a person.
I was surprised when the organizer put this XD match last instead of the MS. For badminton lovers, all the matches are worth watching except the WS. LXR played so badly, so amateurish, that any of the quarter-finalists would have beaten her in the final.
Maybe we need to give a little bit spotlight of the player personal life, to add more spices in the badminton world like in tennis
Come on Justin, I don't think Mitani or Sindhu can win this, Marin has more weapons and she has made LXR into a very pressure situation then LXR broke down.
TV replay showed it's clearly in,unlucky for ZYL/ZN, no more challenges for them to question the linecall.
that's because zhao yunlei has to play two matches. .and it's a rule when a player is playing two matches on the finals day.
Let me put it this way, if this is not the WC but any SS/PSS, Marin would stand no chance against LXR.
Wow, Zhao Yunlei, double-gold medallist at the Olympics, now doing the same for the WC, both in the same edition.
