    Second Indian to defend bird sh*t on courts at a tournament.. in India.
    You are of course correct, but it is still not OK. And since Anks keeps thundering against these courts, I thought I should remind him of the conditions at his home tournament for which he has only displayed the highest praise.

    You know why there was bird sh*t on the warm-up courts? Because there were birds flying around and living in the warm-up hall. That is not World Tour worthy.

    Meanwhile, Kunlavut is owned by everybody in this tournament.
    Current world champion's form has dipped to this level?.

    I wonder what's your problem here. We are in WTF. If you take every account of incidents, there may not be any tournament anywhere else. There is always some kind of disturbances happen everywhere. Normally, i never follow live streaming of all tournaments. When I watched one tournament, I do remember indonesia super 1000 tournament, one court was stopped due to leakage of rain water from the roof. If super 1000 tournament, highest of all tournaments has such incidents and the tournament is still going on there, no need to mention anything further, I guess.
    Let's stick to this thread. And syed modi will be there for many years to come.

    I agree. I think my problem was the stark ironic contrast between Anks' thrashing of this tournament and his high praise of his own when it comes to court mats. Regardless of the difference in tournament status.

    So.. due to a question on Danish TV, I just checked the regulations. See 16.2.3: https://extranet.bwf.sport/docs/doc...on Regulations - 11 November 2023 V4.0 -1.pdf

    I thought that in a triangle scenario, only the matches between the three would count in the tie-breaking process. However, it looks like ALL matches and games count. Did you take this into account? Because I did not.

    This male commentator keeps calling Naraoka...Naray-Oki.

    What?
    This guy isn't even trying!
    Gill called it perfectly.
    The heck?

    Agreed, looking at his play you’d never think he’s the world champ. :oops:

    Male commentator speaking like robot all the time. Steen is technical but he gets excited and interested in some matches. This guy just talks sternly with no emotion.

    No problem. I think triangle scenarios are handled slightly different than I initially thought, but I believe the overall outcome is the same.
