    What did you expect from Kenneth Jonassen as guest commentator and Tine playing her very last tournament? He already called SJH the favorite in the match for him beforehand ...

    If only Wang Xin is back, she will show us how to play Tine.

    How about GC? Shouldn't she be neutral?

    I hate this term

    "caught the outside edge of the line"

    since when was that compensated for what was clearly out... the shuttlecock didn't touch the 'edge' as Gill always says

    With the way Tine is playing, only players with good physical fitness could match her.. Sung ji Hyun is playing really hard stretching to her full limits... Hoping for her to be in complete fitness. She fell down many times to retrieve the shuttle.

    What is neutral anyway (other than boring :p), some people make it like she is biased against SJH. This is not the 8 o'clock news, I can't blame her for favoring Tine in this match/tournament, as it would make a nice storyline overall. SJH is also one of my favorites and she can win it as many times as she likes ... starting next year [​IMG].

    It's not like SJH is making many spectacular winners to rave about, until that one particular xcourt dropshot just a few points ago ...

    Back level, but Janet is stretched to the limit. Still everything to fight for.
