indeed, near the end of the interview, DYP (herself a legend and olympic champion) said she retired at her peak due to injury/unwell/pain in her body.
for LD to continue playing now, it show he still can play and has the courage to step onto the court, not afraid of losing. he is still rank high enough for 500/750/1000 grade tournaments.
when he eventually retire, people and documentary will remember him as a champion, legend, instead of one exiting from first 2 rounds in his last years of playing.
Not at all, you did a very good job, we all appreciate it. Hope you will continue contributing in this regard.thanks for the support and 'likes'. my translation is not perfect so hope i didn't misinterpret some of LD's words.![]()
. Some kid in front of me went berserk after LCW lost, need the parents calm him down.
Right, that's the worrying part, both three-setters. Wonder if he can he survive tomorrow against Tangnonsak.LD has now won 2 straight matches.. that's a lot of months since that happened.
However, he has to spend 70+ minutes on court to win.![]()
If it's any consolation, in today's match, in the first game he was playing safe a lot, clearing and rallying. In the third game, when the match has been somewhere around the hour mark, he was all out smashing often when he gets the chance, seldom clearing. Still a worrying conclusion to the match though if y'all have seen it.Right, that's the worrying part, both three-setters. Wonder if he can he survive tomorrow against Tangnonsak.
Worrying why? He won and was in control all the way through. Yes he took his foot of the pedal for a few points, but you always got the impression he had another gear when he needed it.If it's any consolation, in today's match, in the first game he was playing safe a lot, clearing and rallying.
