    LXR in magnificent form but fitness and stamina still room for improvement. Even so she justified her selection over WSX.

    one should realized that this will be the best match of WS badminton we will see for a while.

    the last time that happens, between ZN and XXF, it was an incredible match.

    people should look beyond the veil of country and look at the matches base on skill and competitiveness. a China vs. China Olympics final will truly show what these players are capable of, at the very highest level.

    Conserve energy for bronze medal match. CHN is possibly the only team that understands stamina is a key factor in winning titles ( or medals). They overdid it in the WD disgrace.

    CHN would surely need to do something about it... And the world is not coming to help them they have to do it on their own... Dont they wish games like Badminton and TT which happens to be there gold mine for the Olympics be there in the next games...?

    For many athletes, fighting for bronze is all about mental adjustment esp after narrowly losing their chance to play for gold, in particular the clear favourites.

    That's still LXR's weakness. As for experience,she has gain quite significantly here, esp yesterday's match vs YipPY in G2.

    can INA handle the endless attack?

    seems to be OK, but also at the same time, making a lot of errors.
