    LD's deep forehand return well-anticipated by VA.

    Wake up, Lin Dan !

    Wow, never seen Axelsen play any better before. He's at the absolute top of his game today.

    Good point though a bit subjective as most people only look at the results. Yes, the quality of the match where both players are at their best matters to me.

    I hate GC.

    How can someone be so hopelessly biased?

    With VA throwing everything back, LD is in trouble. A fitter or fresher LD is needed to deal with VA.

    Axelsen has his game plan against Lin Dan. This will be a severe test for Lin Dan.

    I daresay, LCW won't be so troubled by VA, his fast and furious attacking game usually takes care of most of his opponents.

    No doubt about it, VA is so motivated and going all out.

    Lin Dan wins his points on quick shots. If those don't work, Axelsen is grinding out the rallies to pull Lin Dan around court.

    Was afk before. Well done Nozomi! Will need to watch replay. Really well deserved though. She will be a force to be reckoned with in any tournament, including the majors.

    Why does Lin Dan have to go to take a break after every other rally?
