    I did not say in that context. I meant that place do not have any influence in their resemblance.

    BWF will ban coaching soon. Gao FJ needs to prepare herself.

    Video is good. But commentator is annoying. Had to mute.

    Gao FJ's smashes and backhand are quite good. But her footwork needs some work.

    Gao is somewhat lucky to win in two straight sets, thanks it seems to Nozomi's uncharacteristic errors. Nevertheless, a morale-boosting victory for the young up-and-comer.

    I strongly feel Gao Fangjie must play many more tournaments as quickly as possible to bring out the full potential in her, still a bit green and over-reliant on her coach who appeared solicitous, too much, I think. May stymie her creativity if she's not encouraged to play more freely and use her own initiative more.

    Gao FJ is from Nanjing. I guess Zhang Ning wants her to qualify for this year's world championship which will be held there at her home city.

    And she has the speed, height and reach to force shorter players to run faster and more to cover all corners of the court.

    Obviously, Nozomi is not at her best, far from it, in this match. CHN won't let their guard down against her at the Uber Cup, I'm sure.

    Even Akane Yamaguchi withdrew last-minute to prepare fully for the Uber Cup.

    Okuhara mentioned in a pre-tournament interview, that she is not out to get results, but sees this tournament, more or less, as part of the readjustment process. She stated that she's hoping to derive some satisfaction from her performance, but that she still has problems with changes in pace.

    Okuhara's loss her postpones again a TTY-NO clash. When will they even meet again?? It's taking forever o_O
