Chinese Badminton

Divers peak at a very young age, not a fair comparison for badminton…

Not very knowledgeable about diving though I love to watch it. Younger age means shorter body height. Hence more time and height to finish the routine of twists and somersault, etc.

China is sending some players to the Asian Chanpionship in Manila at the end of this month.

MS is represented by Li Shifeng, Sun Feixiang, Weng Hongyang and Lei Lanxi
Interestingly in MXD, Zheng Siwei is back with Huang Yaqiong. First tournament for ex-WJC champion of 2019 - Feng Yanzhe and Lin Fangling (after more than 2.5 years!)
 
 
There should be more freedom to be professional player for the Chinese players then we will see more players.
Can't depend on one source of sponsorship
 
I tried going into Bilibili but i could not see any matches. Also I cant read mandarin. Are the matches shown live? Do i need to subscribe ? Thank you Clean and tbgoh. Its a lot of bother for you . Is there a way I can do it myself. I agree , JustFun is a problem.

I have Bilibili app on my phone , but not on my computer. I clicked on every link provided by Mr Clean both on my phone and computer just to check and I was successfully taken to some of the matches. I don't think you need to register as a user. I don't remember doing it. I remember you could reach many Bilibili videos using the links I had posted previously。 No livestreams available in Bilibili, not that I know of. I use the Chinese version of the Bilibili APP and I search by using Hanyu Pinyin.
Weng Hong Yang was obviously not well. He looked so tired in yesterday's match. LSF has not been playing well after the Thomas Cup. He is not physically fit at all.

li shifeng has a weak mind and no fighting spirit. He should have won that match in two straight games.

Here is a search on Bilibili for 'Badminton Korea' -- https://search.bilibili.com/all?vt=15592835&keyword=2022羽毛球韩国. Look for the videos you want to watch here. To facilitate your search, use a browser with auto-translation such as Maxthon or Chrome.

Justfun is laggy, but workable on my Maxthon browser. When it freezes, I refresh instead of waiting. The Justfun android app works quite well on a tablet. To download, scan the QR that appears when you mouse-touch 'download' on the upper right corner of the webpage.

I saw his match against the Algerian. He won but was very slow and listless. I don't think he is injured. Probably he was not feeling well and was advised to take a rest by the team doctor.

China badminton really struggling now.

WS - CYF hasn't been anywhere near as good after the olympics
MS - literally no one worth writing about in this discipline
WD - one of the only bright spots in the national team
MD - again no pair worth writing about here
XD - WYL/HDP and that's it (unless they put ZSW/HYQ back together).

I am really not a fan of ZSX and OXY. Both very very average players.

ZSX's interceptions and front court play are not good enough. Her smash from the back is also very mediocre. She has a decent defense but that's it.

OXY has a good smash and very little of anything else.

Think China has to do some revamp of how they develop youngsters because it's been a long long time since they've had someone as promising as some of the Thailand or Japanese youngsters coming through.

The love is in, for Weng HongYang.

Emergence of ‘new Lin Dan’ may make China awesome again

Wow, even the legendary Hendrawan is likening Weng Hongyang to the young Lin Dan - though I thought it a little premature but the potential is unmistakable.

Hmm...still a long way to go for the young Lin Dan wannabe. Wish for the best, high time for China's MS to fill the gap, hopefully, permanently, esp with Chen Long in his twilight years and Shi Yuqi in limbo, not to mention another promising, prospective junior candidate, Li Shifeng, a flash in the pan at the moment.
