Well played by koreans. It was painful to watch the Japanese pair today. Higashino was playing so badly and not enough presence at the front.
ya, maybe because they sell the broadcast right to cable tv provider. i not going to contract with my local provider just to watch badminton. only soccer fans will consider that.
Yuta should focus in MD. Think he can get good back partner in future. Ranked 7/8 in MD is still better than rank 2/3 in XD.

Apparently OVO Australia has bought badminton broadcast right in Australia for a four years deal. https://corporate.bwfbadminton.com/news-single/2019/03/28/ovo-australia-broadcast-deal-announced But checking their website they only have South Australia International for today and tomorrow. No China Open or others.
rough translate of LXR interview... "i didn't start game 1 well, playing against the drift, not controlling tempo of play. the game will be more competitive had i adjusted earlier. latter part, i can see there is a gap in level and pace behind PV." then i think the reporter asked how she feel after her injury 3 years ago and the recovery. "i don't know how to express clearly. i have been working hard but i always meet new obstacles....". then a small breakdown as she bend to control her emotion. the reporter pat on her back, telling her she has touched many when they see her determination and effort to train and return to the court. "i am touched and appreciate the well wishes and encouragement from my fans" another question or words from reporter. "as a professional sportsman, when i'm on the court, i hope to win and stand on podium as a champion (or with the gold medal). i am working hard but there are always new obstacles or problems. i wish i can give my best. i am very happy to be back on the court, and it will be better if i can played better, because i am ambitious too." the reporter then said "Jia You 加油 " and she replied "thank you".
I thought LiXuerui said its not about the gold medal, its about how she perform and she wants to perform well. maybe i listen wrongly, something about the gold medal.
The quality is stunning if you have a decent internet connection. It's either $17/18 for a rolling year of 365 days access. You can also see previous tournament finals.
