ytd watching the match i notice a lot of smashes were defended back , so i dunno it it's have to do with the player strength? or wind? or shuttle cock weight but the air cond wind is STRONG so its EXTREMELY COLD ~ i sit at row 12 from court......
Anthony Ginting's speed can trouble a lot of players, didn't expect him to dispose of Wang Tzu Wei by the identical score of 21-12 and in just 21 mins.
CTC's been struggling this year. I guess his last defeat in MO didn't help him to gain more confidence...
Any halls with strong air conditioning should be pretty drifty. Coupled with slow hall or shuttles, would make it even harder to kill any shuttles if playing against the drift.
Momota is a very smart player, I believe he can think on his feet and in conjunction with his coach's advice to re-strategise and change his tactics in G2.
