    What a comeback for WSX, incredible. She is the more tired of the two but her grit determination and controlled game won it for her. Amazing.

    From down 10-15, WSX closed the match with gaining 11 consecutive points. Amazing!!

    And I have to apologize for being so hopeless before. :D

    We will never see that kind of comeback for the 5x11 scoring system

    Saina totally gifted it. She has to blame herself for the loss.

    That's why attacking players hate to play WSX, unless your attack is overpowering, or else she is going to frustrate and annoy you no end.

    Anyways, I feel sorry for Saina. Seemed she lost her focus suddenly. It was so close to the victory.

    Resting the bodies! Back to back tournaments are too taxing. Keep in mind that lengthy and gruelling 2014 Asian Games was just over not long before the Denmark Open!!

    Incredible fighting spirit by Wang Shixian, taking 11 consecutive points to achieve victory against Saina Nehwal.

    Actually the two ladies are about evenly matched, so it's normal for them to take turns to win. Today's outcome is unexpected for me, esp the 3rd set magnificent comeback, that coming from a stroke rallying type player who is visibly tired as well.

    Chou TC is impressive, disposing of Viktor in the end.

    Yes, in 5x11 scoring system just keep on attacking. Perhaps the badminton will evolve into much similarity as table tennis :D

    Hey, i guess BWF just wanna imitate ITTF :eek: how can I not think of it???
