C'mon Riyanto Subagja.. 8-all... We love you...from INA.. on other court Go go go Denmark Girls..make it more interesting..
It's 23-all now. Riyanto seems committed too many mistakes, while Ayub did too, despite of not as many as Riyanto
Riyanto looked more aggressive but error-prone while Azryn shows more of accurate placing and deceptive kind. I think Riyanto will win . 17-10 now
Riyanto forces rubber-set He should have won it in straight-sets if not for the many errors in the first-set. Typical of a junior player.....
Riyanto grab 2nd set 21-15 with 7 smashes vs 0 from Azryn. Riyanto could grow to be like Hayom, then grow to be like BCL, but can never be like Lin Dan nor Taufik, Dato LCW (hehehe *sotoy*)
It remains to be seen He's still learning every day and that's the advantage of being a junior player. As for Hayom, he's already 22 and if he wants to become counted as one of the top-player, he only has this year and perhaps the next 2 years to prove it. After that, his chance will be gone Would you consider Sony Dwi Kuncoro or Simon Santoso as a player in the calibre of Taufik, Lin Dan or LCW? I personally think not yet.......
as far I concerned, not only jr but also happened to his senior as well.....recent case:loses of Greysia/Mel ....
I agree with you. Not yet in term of level of playing, but in term of achievement, it's probably too late for them. And remember, SDK and SS are only 1-2 years younger than LD, CMIIW. As for SS, at his full speed and top form, I consider SS could resemble LD, but SS is way way lack of consistency. LD could maintain it during whole tournaments while SS could only at some points of game huehehe
OT: To date, Simon Santoso only won 1 GP Gold and 1 SS titles. Add a couple of SEA Games Gold Medals to that. As for Sony Dwi Kuncoro, he did grab a Silver at the WC 2007 and had a burst of good form in 2008, winning 3 SS titles. He also won a few Asian Championships titles.
