Just watched the incident at around 17-16 2nd game. Her left knee buckled a bit under her as she landed on a lateral jump out. Doesn't look as bad as some other more disastrous ones like Wang Xin and another MAS?female singles shuttler in HK open a few yrs back where the knee went completely sideways.
That's why she was able to continue playing to the end, otherwise if it was completely torn she would not even be able to walk at all. She would still need MRI +/- scoping, and lots of rehab. She should be able to do well... just look at Okuhara.
Hope so. Let's await the medical diagnosis. She's still young and so talented, it'll be such a shame if she doesn't come back stronger. Wish her speedy recovery.@kwun @pcll99

Better to go for surgery to have a full recovery if she is to resume top level badminton.She is in Germany planning to have a reconstruction.
Interesting if she gets the same ligamys surgery-method as me, which isn't available in Asia yet.She is in Germany planning to have a reconstruction.
Just remind me which technique you had?Interesting if she gets the same ligamys surgery-method as me, which isn't available in Asia yet.
It would make sense if her ACL is teared to get the latest (and best?) surgery-method you can have.
The Ligamys technique, see: www.ligamys.com (webpage is also in English available); Not sure how they differentiate Ligamys and dynamic intraligamentary stabilization, but it's the same. Probably the ligamys is the name of the implatant while dynamic intraligamenetary stabilization is a more generous definition of the technique.Just remind me which technique you had?
Newest doesn't equate with best. A new technique may not be proven. It would take at best 5 to 10 years for a new surgical technique to be accepted. It takes a lot of time to have enough studies with a high enough number of patients to be definite.
I think they wouldn't take any chances and did a double bundle ACL reconstruction.
Augsburg? Seriously? That's just about an hour by car away from here.Li Xuerui in Germany, Augsburg, receiving treatment.
Cool, so now we can assign a BC insider to go there to update us on her surgery and recovery...Augsburg? Seriously? That's just about an hour by car away from here.I didn't know that they have a special reputation for knee surgery there. But anyway, a beautiful and calm German town with lots and lots of good beer.
Definitely a good place to recover - both physically and mentally.
And you know what? I even know a nurse working at the main clinic there (although we don't know at which specific clinic she's treated, right?). What a bad timing that she is currently on maternity leave.Cool, so now we can assign a BC insider to go there to update us on her surgery and recovery...![]()
