Srikanth has to be the shittiest world no 1. Haha What a waste of time. Easy win by LCW Momota vs CTC must be good.
Chen Long will likely ousted today, with NKL giving a tough, persistent fight. Pressure in China also might play a part.

Ng Kah Long recently impressed me by his improved game though he didn't follow it up with a title win, but I think he's carying where he left off, on the upward trajectory again, perhaps reaching his peak.
With Lin Dan, then Shi Yuqi, ,now Chen Long performing like this, the CHN coaches must be feeling pretty anxious, not a good sign just before the all-important Thomas Cup. Worrying times ahead for Team CHN.
I won't take WR1 too seriously when the one you took over from happened to be taking a break or having an injury layoff. Being consistently at the top of the ranking for a sufficiently long time, say, about six months or more, is what really counts for me.
Is Kento Momota finally back ? Possibly, I sensed it yesterday. Just when Team JPN needed him most, what better time to do so.
