i disagree, as kwun says, ZN and XXF fight their hearts out everytime they meet in the finals. that's also a reason why they keep swapping world no. 1 and 2 positions and also maintain their level above all the other players.
There's still HKO and another CO to come. Get used to it. The umpires and line judges probably have more say in influencing the outcome of the match than the players.Sometimes the circus needs to come to town ,
Again we can see Lin Dan's arrogant face after winning the match against Wong. i think Lin is more motivated when the prize money is high. i think BWF should set a rule to increase the prize money for the runner-up of mixed doubles. it is pathetic for the English pair to only win 5,xxx USD after playing for so hard for a week. 5xxx USD == 3000 Pound.... Markis Kido and Hendra were unfortunate to get foul during the crucial moment of 2nd game against Cai/Fu due to the "fair" service judge.... i am impressed by the organizer as they show such a "fairness" by putting chinese umpires in all the finals.
Possibly a rubbermatch? Almost certainly. Quality of the game compared to last year's Japan Open? Absolutely not!!!
This game is so weird. In the first game, XXF dominated ZN. It was reminiscent of their WC and AE matches. However in this game, ZN is dominating XXF. Reminiscent of their non-WC and AE matches.
lol.. you just used a bit too much of your imagination. There is no reason for doing that and certainly, they are professional enough to not transform a competitive game into somekind of a movie.
Dude, I was just putting a light hearted twist on the proceedings. It's been an utterly insipid evening of action and I was just trying to amuse myself. Nothing to get too serious about. But if the script does play out, makes you wonder, doesn't it?... Hmmm
how is it that XXF gets thrashed by ZN so badly after pwning her in 1st set? is she afraid of her senior?
No. I don't think so. She can still cover the whole court and still doing it. It's just that mistakes that she's committing is too obvious.
