quickest match of the day... LEE Chong Wei [1] Malaysia - Suriname Soren OPTI 21-2 21-3 0:21 21/2 = ~11.5 minutes per game, 690 seconds. 690/24(points) = 28.75 seconds per point. subtract (avg.) 15 seconds between each rally during a fast singles game with short rallies = 13.75 seconds per point. avg. 1.5 seconds per stroke in singles = 9.1 strokes per point. kinda like watching a high school game.
not much in terms of surprises in day 1 of the matches so far. there are a few close matches, with Endo/Hayakawa beating Chai/Hong, Luo/Luo beating Pedersen/Juhl and Ivanov/Sozonov beating Lee/Tsai
Is this the slowest livescore update in the history of mankind ? http://olympics.bwfbadminton.com/live/?match=BDM001E06&tab=live
