cctv 5: old and new results
Hi,
I am sort of new to 21st badminton world so here are some news from cctv 5.
-2004 World Junior runner up, * Weijin *-
Denmark Peter Gade was defeated by 2004 World Junior runner up Weijin (* a shocking news *). According to Weijin, his coach went over Peter's video with him, and also because Weijin's slow style didn't fit Gade's habit of playing fast pace game, he was able to win the game. He was surprised that he could win the veteran. Peter Gade's response was that Weijin played a very good game.
Weijin later defeated by the 2004 Olympic man single champion, Indonesian player. The gold metalist defeated him with good defence and deceptive returns. Weijin was not able to find a way to counter it and so was downed by 2 sets.
