    I believe it's a good draw for Lin Dan.
    I'm sure he got the measures of both CL and LCW's games.

    worst thing of all is there were only two players Lin Dan and Axelsen and two groups to be picked, the guy picking groups was watching all the way the groups are put in the balls and the balls put in the box without any mixing, and finally he didnt pick his ball till the announcer read axelsen's name, lol.

    I re-watched that segment. The man putting the group balls together put 2 green balls in the box and kept his hand inside (looks like he was mixing them around) before the picker picked a ball. Also I don't believe the group picker was able to see which green ball had which group prior to it being put in the box and being probably shuffled.

    The picker was indeed looking towards the player picker, but had already picked a group ball by the time 'From Denmark.....' was said by the host.

    So if there is a conspiracy theory, it's not as obvious as you say.

    Anyway the chance is 0.5 of LD being in either LCW or CL's half. Can't get more even odds than that...
