    Easy match for Chen Long. Will Chen Long able to defeat LCW like in WC? Today match will be beneficial for China team to analyze LCW games and give advantage to CL. I hope LCW will do his homework and do not overjoy winning over Lin Dan. The battle is not yet over

    LCW would have to beat LD and CL in the same tournament for the third time! Surely that's too much.

    WSX and CL forever. I hope they will last and tie a knot in marriage.

    Congrats to LCW....the different between them was LD hardly making mistakes and mentality strength of LD..thats why LD always win..i think LD was faking when lost awfully in many tournament before the Olympic but today in RIO 2016...it shows that LD has passed his golden era...making too many mistakes..declining in his quality of play....even though he still has mental strength...LCW on the other has remarkably increasing his quality of play....maybe its time for LCW to win the gold medal....the result of hard work.....

    Just like the Chen Long of 2015. His court coverage is superb, his attacks penetrating, his touch at the net, and overall accuracy - just phenomenal. The Dragon soars again !

    When Super Dan plays an opponent he knows he cannot defeat in two games, he will aim to take G1, rest in G2 and hope to finish victorious in G3. It s his normal strategy, nothing to do with attitude.

    Not sure who to cheer for in the WS final. Like the both of them. And no, Marin's antics don't bother me.

    the fact that it's Spain vs India in the WS final is so healthy for the sport! I'm so happy about this :):):):)

    Switching to your other horse already now? The dragon soars and super Dan is sailing to the sunset.

    Now finally Marin has the chance to be the WS GOAT. Can she do it? Depends what Marin turns up. Super Marin or just Carolina Marin.
