    Thanks for your reply. Situation needs to be handled better by BWF by giving more support to national associations, line judges, match officials and players who are getting injured oftenly due to gruelling calendar.

    km vs. va... 6-6 in the 3rd...

    is this the turning point where va loses steam? i think so.

    edit: a 7-3 run for km = 11-9 interval km.

    Wouldn't count on it. Momota makes so many mistakes this match, there is still quite a good chance. That kill miss in the first game when Axelsen played through the legs was still cute and everybody smiled, but this one at 10-6 and the following two unforced errors are really bad.

    Momota is still a bad matchup for Viktor. Viktor's poor stamina and fitness isn't helping him either.

    km, from 6-10 down, goes on a 15-6 run to win it...

    Though Axelsen lost this match, I thought he exceeded a lot of people’s expectation for him against Momota. Hopefully he will learn from this match and improve on his mental and physical attributes..

    I already said that for the men's doubles, it's not an upset if aaron wins. As for the mixed doubles, all I can say is wow. The thai mixed doubles was so good the match before,

    Thanks for your insights regarding the poor state of a BWF umpire/refree. After reading your post, I am more worried about the fact that these officials can be easily targeted by bookies/powerful people to corrupt by honey trapping/ luring. The line calls can be challenged, atleast on TV court, but the officials can manipulate the service calls, line calls on non-tv courts. I am not saying that the officials are corrupted but there is a huge possibility that these officials can be targeted. This needs to taken very seriously by BWF. Obviously, as you said, the solution is to pay these officials with enough money. After reading your post, I am more curious to know about the Anti-corruption unit of BWF. Is BWF atleast paying them with enough money?

    Play hard. Train harder.

    I always feel like that there is something lacking in Busanan's game to become a top player.

    Viktor despite taking G2 by a good margin still lacked the confidence and inner belief that he could win the match and it showed in G3 with simple and unforced errors creeping in. Even Steen commented it's a mental thing.

    I also think that when Momota plays Viktor, Momota can turn it up another gear. It was very obvious that in G2, especially at the beginning of G2, that Momota turned down his gear and wasn't really trying that hard. In G3, when the score was close around 13-12, you can see Momota kick in another gear to widen his lead against Viktor.

    Momota is very similar to LD. LD will usually conserve his energy and in the 3rd set, LD will often turn it up a gear in the 2nd half of the 3rd set (of course, I am referring to LD from the past).

    That may be so but wonder how long he can keep up that higher gear; otherwise he would've used it more often.

    Lu Guangzu has the potential but still lacking the required consistency to seriously challenge the top few players except once in a blue moon.

    CTC now does not need coaching on court and he is just attended by Taipei coach lady supplying food/nutrient and encouragement :)

    Besides Kento Momota, CTC is the other consistent player that seems to be in Semi and Final every time he is in a tournament.

    Is Intanon getting fatter (and of course, slower)?
