Chen/Toh level is so below Top 5 pair. Needs to improve on quality of shots. Although, he is getting older now. Time is not going to wait for him.
No one to blame but themselves for Pearl/Tan. Losing G2 after leading by a huge mile, adopting flat game (and end up being pressured by CHN pair.)
Mid G3, I saw Pearl/Tan lifting high again, instead at the net. However, at that point not going to do much.
Do you guys think this CHN jersey (ChenJia) is nice ? It was a bit like 2017(?) jersey the mix and match colours on each side where i have 2 jersey of the colors combination. Still feels like they are my favourite a bit like yin and yang. Also have CHN Olympic jersey the 2016 one blue color.
Way back we also have Lim Xiaoqing who moved to represent Sweden in the 90s. She married Thomas Kihlström (arguably Sweden’s best player ever) so that may have been a reason… Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Coach aryono told fikri during the end of g1: “just attack them with simple placement shot because they made some errors on them”
Bagas told fikri: “ out out out” instead fikri made the beautiful cross court net shot while saying “sorry” 8-5 good
What a wild and frustrating mens Doubles. All four Players way too risky and error prone. So many stupid Shot selections. Not fun to watch. I ll Take the calm Placement of Setiawan any day compared to this.
Coach aryono told fikri: the china’s pair love fast pace drive, thus you have to just block the drive or soft touches in front of net,,, do not tempted to use energy in front of the net, unless the ball is 100% sure for net kill
the way nozomi played right now she look like she belong in top 5. she totally outplayed asy in the first game
I think the Nozomi Okuhara we know is back, the runner, retriever and grinder, as well as more mature and experienced now at 28 years of age. Actually, I wanted to say this after watching how she disposed of P V Sindhu but held back as I wanted to see if it's a one-off performance. Of course, An Se Young, the most in-form, hotshot WS at the moment, is a big hurdle but you never know. Still, I'd be realistic and put her chances down to at best 50-50 in this really tough match.
