lot of hardwork needed for LD.. his play is so defensive and no more dive, no more jump smashes from him
In the 2013 WC, Lin Dan had no warm up tournaments, and came out of nowhere to win the tournament. But this year, it seems like Lin Dan can't find his form even after having several tournaments already.
After the WC'13, he shouldn't have taken another long break, he's really pushing it and it's showing now.
The several unforced errors LD committed at the beginning means he has to regain those points first before taking the lead.
