Misses a sitter, Lin Dan that is.

 

[Justin L]

Have to agree with GC on this one, Lin Dan is not yet fully match-fit.

Santoso is in his element...Lin Dan, well, still feeling his way...

 

[bdfreak87]

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.

 

[Justin L]

Santoso very comfortable playing this Lin Dan...

 

[Justin L]

Again smashes wide, LD...no accuracy...

After the WC'13, he shouldn't have taken another long break, he's really pushing it and it's showing now.

 

[Justin L]

Simon playing as well as he did against Lee CW whom he beat the other time.

 

[Justin L]

Luck of the net cord to Simon, 18-all...

 

[Justin L]

The several unforced errors LD committed at the beginning means he has to regain those points first before taking the lead.

 

[Justin L]

LD smashes wide again...

 

[Justin L]

Fabulous x-court net from LD.

 

[Justin L]

Deuce 20-all...

 

[Justin L]

Wonderful rally won by LD in the end to go 21-20 up...

 

[Justin L]

Taps into the net, 21-all...

 

[Justin L]

Simon's MP 22-21 when LD misses the x-court drive from Simon...
