    Probably because they play a JPN pair.
    It's Okuhara vs Sindhu.

    you think ko sung hyun won all the matches himself??? lol who set it up for ko? if you were talking about pre 2015 kim ha na i would agree that she didn't do much to help him win games (i.e the australian open ss title in 2014, and other finals they made in that year) but she improved dramatically since then and become a very strong front court player, more so in change of pace than power but she still set it up for ko a lot and made it easier for him. i personally think she's pretty good defensively, reads the game pretty well, is good strategically and around the net... maybe we're watching a different person or have different standards lol

    as much as i like chae yoo jung, she's not better than kim ha na (yet).. her defense is a lot weaker than kim's, she might have a better reading of the game but she struggles to finish it.. to be honest the only outstanding or good game i've seen her play is the sudirman cup final game and that might've had more to do with the chinese pairs nerves.. it's not like she was stuck with a rubbish partner either.. shin baek cheol was a good XD player and they had plenty of chances to beat ko/kim but they never did.. chae has only beat kim ha na once lol (and i think she's pretty much in a permanent partnership with choi now.. i don't see them splitting them up any time soon)

    if kim ha na relied so much on ko to win titles, why has she won two grand prix gold without him? one against shin seung chan, who was winning until kim ha na started playing properly and then she was completely dominated by kim and then game over...

    i don't wanna argue cause we're probably not gonna agree lol and i do like chae yoo jung and think she'll be a great player one day i just think that saying that kim ha na is useless, never wins anything out of her own merit, and that ko sung hyun won all their titles on his own (i honestly don't think chae/ko would've won more titles anyway...) is a little unfair and unrealistic(?) but w/e each to their own

    I watched HS/TBH played the Taiwanese pair, TBH looked very uninspiring, sometimes back to his don't care attitude. There were some midcourt shots that he could have finish off but he didn't.

    Against the Danish uncles who always give 101%, I dare say it's early shower for them if he doesn't up his game.

    Me too. I am a fan of Uncle Lee but if he can't get pass SWH, that means he isn't at that level.
