    Commonwealth games loss to michille was nothing but showing her inexperience during crucial time. Sindhu was leading ladies team . For her age, she could not withstand the pressure .
    Morten frost was saying yesterday while commentating her match. He mentioned that sindhu was at extreme pressure while playing li michelle, who is very experienced player . She even played olympics. I don't consider her loss to be a heart breaKing one .

    Star Sports 4 has switched to Court 2 with Indian commentary which confirms both courts are being officially telecast.

    Worst broadcast of the tournament so far. Only one objectively interesting match, and while I'm interested in the Schoettler/Fuchs match, it would've so much better to play the Shin/Ko vs Endo/Hayakawa match on the TV court....and Lee/Yoo should've been scheduled instead of one of the mind-numbing WS matches.
    While I find Nehwal's game ugly to watch and would rather study or have a nap instead of watching that, I'm completely aware that my opinion is just that, a subjective impression. However, it's a bit weird in my eyes to schedule only one MD match on the TV court, with it being the most spectacular discipline....and while I don't care whether they replace one WD match, it's not really fair either.
    I understand they want to get all of LCW's matches on TV (even if I don't expect his match against Evans to be interesting, unless you like watching completely one-sided affairs), but one of the other 2 could've been replaced with one of the very exciting MD matches.

    Also, Boe/Mogensen are lucky they're home players (and thus TV court favorites), because theirs is probably gonna be the most boring MD match of them all. And that's with Kido still playing.

    I thought Rashid Sidek will be in Denmark to guide LCW. But I see only coach TSB and Hendrawan in attendance. Has something gone wrong with the arrangement again?

    Good selection of matches for tv court. I think instead of germany's MD match, they could have shown some other interesting match. They exactly know what matches needed to be put in the tv court .

    21-12,21-10, that's the score Chen Long beat K Srikanth but you have to watch the match to see how he demolished his opponent, out-attacking him left,right and centre, phenomenal.

    Maybe for a diehard Indian fan. For me the TV court matches are sleep-inducing. The best would be to keep an objective schedule with all disciplines getting the same amount of matches, even if personally I would prefer to see no Indian players (except Srikanth) at all and preferrably no WD. Literally any other court would've been better...very stupid not to show any of the 3 Korean MD pairs, all of which play very exciting badminton.

    Oh, so Rashid was there.

    I was able to watch Court 1 matches only.

    Oh my. What a little twat Boe is.....complaining about Fuchs' faulty celebration in one rally, then celebrating his (too short) service in the next :D Fairly quiet for his standards, though, and a good match by the Danes.

    Well looks like JOJ is having trouble with his right knee and is now at the mercy if Chou (TPE) who won by a massive 21-9 in G1!

    No way JOJ can hope to win against an in-form Chou. Very likely JOJ will have to give up.

    Another possible contender for LCW is now out of the way but Chen Long seems to be in great form.
