They are already going to split after OG anyway. I mean KKK/TBH. Ever since they change coach & Rexy left Msia, they play like just waiting for the day they can split.
I guess you are right... 4 years is such a long time though. I just feel the better pair to reach the semis is the THA pair rather than this crappy MAS pair who can't even win a few simple points in a row.
congrats JJS!!!!! so happy for you and LYD! anyone noticed JJS shedding tears in the slow mo celebration?
KKK/TBH should split. KKK is not as good as TBH and he is old now. But the question is, can Mas find a better or equal KKK to pair with? So far Mas had many MD players but no one really stand out.
Congratulations to LYD and JJS. It wasn't the dream final that we had hoped, but I'm glad JJS redeemed himself and didn't let his struggles against the danes affect the outcome of this match. I hope him the rest now that he will retire with his first olympic medal. He hasn't gotten the same fame and attention that LYD has gotten, but he definitely rates #1 on my list of having the most spirit and fight out of any player I've seen even though he may not have the same natural talent that LYD has.
if you want to wear earrrings and tattoo.. go gay club... be a champion then wear ok.. like lin dan and beckham.. A champion... hard work, dicipline and luck... showoff and poor attitude how to be champion.... can see the attitude on court... how to support you... First set drop drop drop... no smash... second set then smash.... so stupid.. whose the coach? retire please. If you noctice, kkk scolded tbh f... you when their racket clashed...
Jung Jae Sung... what an emotional guy. tear was in his eyes after they won the match. they really deserve more than Bronze.
For the first time, Indonesia goes home without a medal in badminton and for the second time, Korea goes home without a Gold medal in badminton; first one was in Sydney 2000 when Lee Dong-soo/Yoo Yong-sung lost to Gunawan/Wijaya in the gold medal match. Well China did not win any gold in Barcelona 1992. Every powerhouse is not perfect. Even the golden tradition of Indonesia does not last forever.
You just hit the nail on the head. Any MAS player like HTH can perform better than KKK in normal tournaments, but I don't think they have a player who can play as well as KKK did in all the major events where they reached the final, and also this Olympic Games.
Haiz, like I said yesterday, those two trend memang like that all through their partnership. LYD can still try with new partner, got good ones in Korean camp
Seems like some great players have no luck at these type of big tournament.. a good example is Peter Gade.
