Yup, there are two answers : One group is thinking the right thing and they are right. Another group is refusing to think the right thing and they are wrong. Phew...I am confused. ..why don't they just get this over quickly. I can't wait for Tago and JOJ.
Tian Qing will certainly want to win the title but it depends on how much effort her partner Zhao Yunlei can or is willing to put in as the latter has another final to contest. Of course, it also depends on how well their opponent Tang/Bao are playing. Don't underestimate the internal rivalry among the CHN camp. It's the final and the points earned for the champions and runner-ups are high enough. In other words, there is everything for both pairs to play for as far as they are concerned. Besides, the points garnered by Tang/Bao for their 3rd final with two victories are substantial already.
LYB needs to have 3 pairs of WD ready by early 2015. I think the following players will likely get there in top 5 in world ranking by then: 1. YY/WXL 2. ZYL and her partner 3. Bao XY and her partner Assuming none of the above has any serious injuries, of course.
This new CHN pair Tang/Bao is impressive, three consecutive titles in four tournaments - the Dutch Open GPG, the DEN Open PSS and,now, the French Open SS.
