    team events are a good time for new pairings to show themselves and youngsters to have a chance too…

    Kobayashi was very error prone yesterday maybe that’s why he wasn’t played

    And hoki is on fire????

    I think kobayashi has too much pressure playing with hoki as hoki doesn’t do anything and there’s too much work load and that would’ve changed if he played with yuta

    They were never popular for their sportsmanship lol.

    Except maybe Chen long and wang Yihan none are.

    A "normal" loss in a "regular" match is very different from losing 21-5 in the MS1 in a Sudirman Cup semifinal.
    Team events are just a different kind of pressure and expectation, from the team, from your nation, especially a nation with a badminton tradition like China.

    I believe he also had a history of not performing well in team events before, which added on to his pressure today to prove himself. When he couldn't do that, it's too much to handle.

    The service judge is really getting on the nerves of the chinese, 3 or 4 service faults called already?

    That last service seemed okay to me...

    Well, if CHN somehow survive this tie with JPN after that horrible and demoralising start by SYQ, I really don't wish to see SYQ in the final against VA. Spare me a double whammy, agonising to watch, hard to stomach.
