Comment from expert below. I saw the full match Live yesterday . Before the match, my feeling was that LZJ could be the winner yesterday if his fitness was good and fully prepared for this BWF world championships. As play went on both players played well with good level consistency . The Chinese player Zhao Jun Peng looked very determined to win. His net play was superb with more accurate cross court smashes. LZJ was seen to be lacked of full fitness and much lesser killer smashes too . LZJ played with too much tension yesterday . If only he played without pressure to win, I think his game would be much better . NEVER the less, credit must be given to Zhao Jun Peng for having won the highly anticipated tie between them. There's not much difference to choose between the two world class players. Fitness, patience with high accuracy of strokes will definitely make them better players . Just continue to train and *never give up* is the best motto of the year.
Now more flaks from missing out commonwealth games. Cant even make it to qtr final of wc after such a long preparation. Sleep during 3 weeks training.
Easy for ahsan win. Sitiawan 15th year in wc. A record? Hoki reeling missed out on g1. Painful lesson. Shd go full blast.
LKY should be patient is his shots. Wildly bang bang bang against a control play of KV will only send him back home.
Kunlavut is Momota 2019 version 2.0 now I was not sad when Nishimoto cannot find a way to score a point yesterday, just see and wait how "the flash" Loh Kean Yew solve this problem.
