peter didnt play bad, chen jin unleash his speed and power at the right moment yannie must be super happy now!
I think Peter was a bit defensive and reactive, Chen Jin's constant attacks were too much for him tonight. I thought Chen Jin looked great. He had that drive/motivation of a fresh youngster in him.
he was clearly not playing his game. He seems nervous. Maybe too tired after his battle agains't Lin Dan.
Wang Lin just got a new fan. Her game was good. Next superstar in the making. Her ranking will shoot up after this event.
nervous? i dont think so - having beaten lindan he must hav thought its in da bag..dis youngster who hes beaten before wasnt goin 2 worry him..fact is gade was outplayed - i agree with trunkZ69 n cooler - chenjin simply too fast wit d drive of a youngster. if only lindan played with the vigour chen jin showed! anyway china wins!!
can't believe the pros are playing at such a BAD enviroment. I mean, look at the whole match for MS... the wind is blowing heavily from camera right to left. it is SO big that a shot from gade was curving back into the court... and I notice most shots down to the left side got pushed down more, and the shots are faster... notice especially Chen jin took this as an advantage? haha. I think peter wasn't excited at all. of course Chen played an excellent game. but I think from the way peter looked, he wasn't eager enough to win. I guess it was due to the fact that he beat LD yesterday and since IMO he made winning LD his biggest goal at this tournament(read a chinese news somewhere during an interview with gade, he wanted to play LD very badly), he basically physically and mentally gave it all out for LD's game. I mean normally if peter is fresh he should be able to last more than 2 games while maintaining his regular speed and agilty. However, after couple points of the second game, he was already a goner. Anyhow, good job for both chen and gade tonight, really wasn't expecting his victory over LD in CHINA!!!.
I thought Chen Jin was great! Gade's speed and agility could not match his and he made Gade run everywhere with his shots.. I really see a new World Champion in making.. By the way, I'm ying ying last time.. XP Sorry my com broke down and I had to repair it.:crying:
Speed and power Is funny that we usually think it's anti-climate to have Chinese vs Chinese in the Final but the XDF and WSF were so well and fiercefully played, stretched into rubber sets while the MSF and MDF were done in straight sets. Quite dissapointed with the MDF but MSF was pretty good until the bad call in game 1 when the score was at 20-19, what a big blow to Peter. Chen Jin did win game 2 with his power and speed and showed us that speed and power can overcome the inexperience and skill.
well, i wouldnt say chen jin is short in the skill department too bad no close up on that last point in game 1
ya, even if peter took the first game, i believe chen jin would had won the next 2 games to close the match.
