Last week was Yonex shuttlecocks in Arctic Open, this week is Victor's. Are the shuttle speed the same? We know between Yonex and Victor's shuttles, the flights are different.
Unfortunate with Axelsens injury. I would have never guessed he was carrying an injury the way he played in the first match. If he does withdraw the top half of the draw looks significantly easier than the bottom. Probable LZJ-Gemke semi final.
If VA withdraw, who would benefit the most? Im not surprised if he does considering how careful he is about keeping himself in good condition
INA girls like Tunjung. She just looks fat to me. And she is supposed to be one of the better ones. Used to be girls like Melati and Anggia Shitta.
Congrats Sindhu...After a long struggle following the injury Im glad to see PV coming back stronger with more crisp shots and agile footwork..Its good to see her back and I really hope Nozomi could be back too in a simillar fashion but then these both may retire after Paris so Im enjoying them as long as they are active !
13-10 to 13-21. Complete annihilation there. Took Sindhu @4.1 after G1 loss. Honestly its easy. INA players are mentally down. When i see Sindhu loss and Tunjung tape on her knees (and basically most of INA players), she wont last. They will lose any 50:50 match/duel and Tunjung started this match as favourite.
Coach Hafiz managed to read the match well and provide good input for Sindhu. And for GMT and her coach...no comments
Here we go 0-11. Look easy at 3. Man. I probably have never seen 11 points dropped 2 consecutive matches in a row. This is what can happen when morale is down.
