LYD Sprained his ankle during the semi match. Ch looked fine against CJ yesterday. maybe its by team order...hehehe
Put some banages on, and he will look just like Taufik... but damn I want to watch a final between Chen Hong and Gade so badly. I hope this is just a team order thing and not for real, or else it is just terrible to have a player whom is totally on fire getting injuried at this time...
It wasn't very serious. he managed to continue the game and won ! But i don't think he'll be able to able play the semis today though.
hmm... Do anyone "really" think Ch would be "allowed" by LYB to WO , if the semi had been against LCW instead of Bao.. it's sad that chineese seems to view individual events as "team"-efforts I very very much hope Gade gets to win tommorrow!!! /Twobeer
I cant see why people cant just respect players for withdrawing due to injury. Would you rather have seen CH quit during his match against CJ. Would this be much more beneficial to the sport? I think its a credit that players have the fighting spirit to finish a match and that we should respect their wishes be it to withdraw due to injury. I personally would not like to see a Henin-Hardene, who retired against Mauresmo during the Aussie open final last year.
Well, if he was truly injured druing the CJ game, I think it would be nicer to let Chen Jin and Bao fight it out... instead of "barely"-winning it and then leave WO... But then again, I cant help to have the thought nagging that we would have seen CH play in the semis (maybe at the risk of further back-problem) if Bao lost to LCW... /T
Great point. We can monitor how many walkovers CH will give. He seems to be the appointed expert. Check his history.Nobody even comes close. I wonder why LYB don't try to stop it. Bad habit. Some fans may sue to get their money back.You never know.
hu...hu... so sad... i cant watch bao chun lai play live... i wait a long time in the stadium after kkk&tbh match... i thought that the match will be start after the rest... unfortunately, the official told me that cheng hong n korean pair have withdraw the game... wa...wa...wa...
Personally I sadly think CH hasn't got much say in these kind of decisions, it seems clear that its LYB who makes most decisions.. /Twobeer
I was there today.. heh! first time at a live tournament. Surprised with the wo.. not sure about the Chinese.. but I saw Lee Yong Dae.. he was limping when he was walking and someone was there to assist him when he walked. Poor kid...
I think if LYB wants to pick, he would have pick CH instead of BCL to play PG. From previous matches, BCL's decisive shots are not effective against an experienced PG. CH, like LD, has a power game that give PG more trouble. I really doubt it's a fake injury unless LYB has other thoughts.
i don't agree though, so he was blamed to withdrawn b/c he didn't fight bcl, and then blamed for having fighting spirit during injuries? what are you looking for from him? become super saiyan? so pretty much you guys are blaming him regardless of situation, great!
the problem lies here is that Chinese team is known to fix the matches...eventhough CH is injured...people have a doubt...dont blame us... We blamed TH for WO at HK open and XXF said that the incident is bad for fans...now my question to XXF is doesnt Chinese team do the same now?????
I agree! If it is a team order then he would have asked to WO right before he play CJ, since many of you think he is already give up by LYB.
I just hate people who make drastic claims on unfounded suspicions that have no evidential backing just to satisfy their need to hate someone or something like hm let me think "Chinese team fixes matches" There arent even any coaches when chinese players play. Of course this doesnt mean that it doesnt happen but where is the evidence that it does. Why would LYB pick CJ or BCL over CH anyway when he is stopping him from retiring. Do not get some people's logic.
I said based on past events.....you should now that....it is no secret...I do not hate Chinese teams.....also remember what XXF said about Taufik's walkover...
