    That's a shame if he can't pull himself together here. Just when he just managed to defeat Momota yesterday.

    You're underestimating HYQ, no matter how good ZSW is, he also needs someone as good as HYQ - it's the perfect combination in XD. Even HYQ when forced to the back, isn't harmless at all, in fact she's got a decent attack at the rear court when needed.

    I actually rate HYQ more than ZSW in the effort of making this pair so dominating. She controls the rally really well, all ZSW needs to do is release his attacks and drives from the back with all his might without needing to worry about the rest.

    SWH is more suited to slow and rally game like against KM..

    KN aggressive attacking play make SWH life difficult..

    In my opinion, all the reigning WCs deserve automatic qualification to the WTF, what's the WTF grand finale without the WCs.

    Son from 10-2 up probably took his foot off the pedal , to his grief. Suddenly Kenta is moving so well, superb court coverage

    Perhaps yesterday's match with Kento is starting to take a toll on Son

    Yeah.. and in his tweet when he said something like "Missing 2 duo tall WC players. Dark hair looking Asian. Impostors have taken over their place. If found, return to CHN head coach." :D:D:D

    Really ? I thought ZSW is the key in this partnership. when Tontowi/Butet lost to them they also talk mostly about ZSW. I actually liked CQC more than HYQ.

    I think Son's fitness is still OK, he may be mentally tired from yesterday's long, hard-fought match playing as if it's the final.

    Kenta is so fit and fast, playing very well all of a sudden starting from just before the latter half of G1
