2016 Victor KOREA Open Superseries : Round of 32 - FINAL (27th September-2nd October)
- Thread starter CLELY
- Start date
Nobody realise the significance of Lee Hyun Il beating JOJ. The grand old man of Korea MS 1st came out into the senior tour in 1999 playing against the likes of Paul Eric Hoyer and Rashid Sidek. His contempory PG and Taufik were already making waves. His 1st major tournament final was JO 2002 at 21years old beating a string of top players to get there. And he played against the likes of Chen Hong , Xia Xuan Zhe, Hendrawan. He almost won the AE 2006 against LD. And He is one of those players LD hate to meet and Lee HI was at his prime.
Now 10 years later Lee is still beating top flight players 10 years younger. This goes to show that the current young players are not the same quality with we have seen 10 or even 20 years ago.
Twice OG 4th place...lost the bronze to Chen Long in 2012 and Chen Jin 2008. Most unlucky player ever.

Both of them has same technique. But LHII is more elegant.

Ajay is out of energy already?. Instead of jump smash, he smashed into net without jumping.

IMHO Ajay has the best court craft and touches among the Indian players.
The 3 young Chinese girls cannot beat the Japanese girls with skills and techniques alone. They need to improve on their stamina. The Japanese girls have great retrieving abilities and bags of energy. Is it genetics? I observe that Japanese girls are doing better than Chinese girls in long distance running, including marathon.

Exactly, it's a special characteristic typical of JPN WS to have such extraordinary stamina as to enable them to keep running and running which also translates into remarkable court coverage and retrieving ability to outrun, outlast and in the end outplay most of their opponents who lack outstanding attacking and defending skills if they don't have sufficient good fitness to match.
