BP has this quirky action in his lifts where he tries to deceive the opponent. In the end, LD read it with ease. Too much lifting allowed LD to control the game
I guess quite a few critics are gonna crawl out of the woodwork to say that the Thailand Open is no big deal. But consider how much of a morale boost this is for Lin Dan (and China) on the eve of the biggest sporting spectacle ever
The outsized cheque for 4,200USD doesn't put a smile on Boonsak Ponsana's face. After all, he lost on home turf... before his people But victory + USD 9,000 makes even the grim Lin Dan smile
LD shows again he's got that extra gear when required. Quite impressed by the way he put Boonsak away when he needed to.
too much lifting means that player is hitting the shuttle below the tape too much. BP has 2 choices, die by the net kill or die by LD's jumping smash.
The only thing now in the red broom's way is Malaysia's WD team. I wonder if they can stave off this 'sweeping' challenge
now he learns to respect the culture of others....unlike MO06...opps....I bring in the old issue again...but seriously speaking, after MO06 incident till now, LD is becoming more mature in court manner, except KO08 incident...
