    Well coach Zhang Ning is trying hard to motivate WYH.

    We shall see whether it is effective.

    according to the norm, usually a pair or a player who defeated a very strong player (world no.1, OG champion, or...) will not able to win the match on tomorrow. I hope Adcock and White are the exception:D

    I think WYH understands how to play Porntip better now, it's just that execution is still a problem. She might be able to turn it around in G2.

    WYH drew first blood with a beautiful slice cross net shot and Portip hit out twice to gift WYH a 3-point lead.

    WYH continued the pressure to make it 5-nil before Porntip responded with a delicate drop and a sideline smash to make it 2-5.

    why does WYH always plays cross court, when shuttle is deep in her forehand corner?

    Gradually, WYH is getting the hang of it, esp at the net.

    Indeed Porntip is more athletic and smooth and with errors from WHY, she now moved closer to WYH at 6-7.

    However a careless net shot allowed WHY to tap it over but a long serve out by WHY followed by a mixture of deceptive net shots and hitting out shots gave WYH a lead of 11-8 at interval.

    WYH now has a "6-point" cushion according GC and she is certainly showing her aggression to lead 16-8.

    WYH will take the second game and eventually the match i guess.. She has much more energy than Portnip who got squeezed now.. Tiring looks..

    Porntip created a new deception with her disguised "jump drop" with a bang. Actually she did not jump but made the impression that she was going to but instead she just dropped the shuttle over the net.
