Yes, agree. There‘s stamina issue for koreans too. Waiting to see how this game pans out. Sent from my Mi Note 10 Pro using Tapatalk
Ironically, the unseeded dark horse KOR pair have actually reached a higher level of achievement than their fancied opponents, being former world champions in 2014. So if they lose, minions can at least console themselves with having lost to a world class pair.
Ko and Shin were very unstable after their 2014 WC title, often not able to play at the level they should be able to. On a sidenote: The Minions were on the rise, their speed and dynamic play was quite new and many players did not know how to handle them until 2017 (Boe/Mogensen, Chai/Hong, Liu/Zhang and later Endo/Watanabe).
Ko/Shin destroyed the daddies, Aaron/Soh, and then the Minions to win the French Open title... that's the former World Champions spirit...
like i said since the sudirman cup, i really want to see gideon playing with fajar...i think the partnership would be successful
