China will not be that confident when all the top doubles players from DEN, KOR and INA come to play..
first watch Choi playing, She is a good player!!! her movement on court is very fast.. her play similar with LYD imo
Actually I'm quite impressed with cutie 19-year-old Choi. She is fast, agile, strong and clever. I'm sure we'll see more of her in he future.
Zhang Nan/Zhao Yunlei just showed that they are not good enough to win gold in London...Zhang Nan doesnt have the killer smash and Zhao Yunlei is not as dominant at the front as Ma Jin....
Yeah.... KOR able to produce good players & duo that are capable to challenge CHN Team.. Good to hear that...
Actually very disappointed with ZZ...after two defeats this year in two premier series, they still havent added much variety of shots to their game.. Zhang Nan's attack is quite weak and their defensive stance is weak...
I heard she is 19. My good fortune to be able to watch the on-going XD semi finals. Again it was Choi Hye In who won point 6 for KOR. Now Kim Sa Rang, Choi's partner, just hit the tape and out to give CHN's #1pair Zhang/Zhao the lead 11-9 in the decider. The Koreans have already made their presence felt with their notable scalps in the earlier rounds. Score now 14-10 in CHN's favor.
At the moment,in the WS,Wang YH is still the best I think,the most consistent,in good form and highly experienced,therefore indispensable if I may say so. LXR is excellent and in the same league as the three Wangs but somewhat not as experienced and mature (no fault of hers as she is a new,relatively young superstar), form aside,but,more importantly,she is not tested in pressure-cooker situation. As such,LYB choosing her in place of WSX or some say WX, is not a sure thing yet,there is still time for him to wait and see,test them out. For today's WS semi-finals, I believe all four players will give of their best as that's the only way for LYB to gauge them and not just pit LXR against WSX alone;same for the previous matches,for which surprisingly Wang X failed the test,losing out to Chen XJ. For the MS,it's clear they want Chen Jin to qualify,no two ways about it and happily CJ has proven he is up to it,with or without "help". Nonetheless,it's worth it for Lin Dan and Chen Long "to play their part here" now that PG has,unexpectedly,been bundled out at the EC QF stage by a Swedish player,Henry Huskainen - a few upsets there, HK Vittinghus was knocked out early too.
