    Not true. TTY lost and people are geniunely sad because you know why? She is gracious and has great sportmanship.

    If Kevin was more mature/graceful like past Indonesian greats like Tony Gunawan/Candra Wijaya/Hendra Setiawan/etc... people would be cheering for them 100%.

    Do you hear anyone quoting how many Challenger series titles he won, or do they talk about his Grandslams? Minions got 2 All Englands so far, but no WC or OG medal would make them almost meaningless in a historical context. They still got time though, I'm sure they'll win one eventually, if they keep this level for another 2 years they'd just be too good to get not even one medal.

    But they cant do anything if WC doesnt follow them and if AllE that follows them.

    If Kaneko/Inoue beat Kamura/Sonoda, I'm gonna cry in tears and smack the heck out of me.

    I can assure you that a lot of people are sad for them, you may not be one of them but a lot of people do.

    MensDouble is very difficult discipline to be consistent . Just accept what they have won . They still won more than others left in the tour.

    LYD's nerves on clear display in that one, he really wasn't playing like himself in that match. One of the most disappointing ones I've had to watch, but at least it made for an easy final for Cai/Fu :D They had had trouble with JJS/LYD leading up to those Olympic Games

    Minions tried to make a monumental comeback in both sets but Kam/Son were really clutch today. Kam/Son played great in this match. Congratulations to them!
    I don't understand why minions keep lifting and being passive in the fist half of 2nd set when clearly it isn't working for them. Japanese players are known with their super fitness and stamina.
    Marcus unreliable today, too slow, ineffective smashes, while Kevin too erratic with those UEs.
    They need to comeback stronger for the Asian Games and try at least get a medal coz so far they're not a major championships pair just yet imo.
    c'mon boys do better in AG.:)

    Oh seriously? Did you see how bad they were playing today? They choked. Even the Japanese had trouble killing the shot too. They lift because they were playing KamSon and they almost overturn but failed because they suck today.

    So you're saying Federer had it easier than the minions to win those titles? GTFO :D As I said, I'm pretty sure they'll eventually get there. But I'll also not lie and pretend this disappointing exit isn't tasty as well, maybe someone can make a video of it and blend in KSS' thumbs down at the result, this time directed at himself...?
