    How will things go for Boe/Mog? They suffered a bad loss to Liu/Zhang last week. They were French Open champions last year, right?

    Lee Chong Wei on Court 3. Last time I remember, winning French Open (beating Axelsen) did do something to his confidence level.

    Nothing. He will go out to tournaments like normal. Since he stated that there is a few major tournaments next year and MAS team might need him.

    Tai Tzu Ying managed to beat Chen Xiaoxin in three setter match. WS is ao competitive, it's hard to find a match you can relax in.

    Yes, but it's just getting embarrassing though. He's going to ruin his legacy if he doesn't retire in 2018 with the way he's playing.

    Either way, he doesn't care about his legacy. All he wants to do "relax and enjoy the matches" as much to the dismal performance

    LCW's legacy is becoming like Taufik Hidayat's. Losing to young player all the time. 2019/2020 should be the max limit of his career.

    Of course it won't be.

    Taufik carried on and while it was a bit obvious what was happening, he was and still is a popular figure.

    LCW wiped out by Kenta Nishimoto.
    I can predict a straight set victory.

    LCW's generation is over. We must accept that.

    Or as a nation's hope. He want to make MAS proud, doesn't care about money at all.

    Not sure how being wiped-out by young newbies makes MAS "proud".
