At 35, Lin Dan doesn't have the explosiveness to compete at Top 10 Level.

That absence of one-step leads to tons of bad judgment. Atleast a dozen of points were lost today due to bad judgment.

He should be more than happy with a record breaking 10th All England Final, a New Zealand Open Title and The much coveted 6th Thomas Cup this year.

but he never won Indonesia open
 
Also, I see an insane amount of mental burnout.

Playing the ' Perfectionist' style for almost a decade now, started playing that style back in 2011 has taken its toll.

You see Lin Dan giving up in the middle of the rally despite being in 80-20 position to win it, not changing to his BH grip, doing proper footwork because he knows it takes a lot more work to win it and it has its share of mental effect.

This style is great for less than 30 years body but unfortunately not that competitive at 35+ unless you have great physical resource and mental motivation I don't see how it can keep him in Top 10.
 
As Prannoy is member of this forum, i ask him to convince Sai Praneeth to retire gracefully. Waste of Public money. He enjoyed all the benefits of a National player for long time. But no use.

I don't see him having the explosive movement or stamina required to remain in Top 10.

I think Nanjing World Championship might be a good place to hang his boots forever and ever.

It's just the matter of physical intensity not matching the skillset.

Is that you trying to console yourself?
 
level 1 : Olympics, World Championships, Thomas Cup, Sudirman Cup, Asian Games team, Asian Games Individual : he won it all

level 2 : Super Series Final, China Open, All England, Indonesia Open : he only missed Ina Open

well I meant by the way he acted..he appeared to be an immature brat honestly...No mature players do such stuff...I have seen LCW,LD,KM etc win the most they do is take off their shirt and shout like ADULTS..no one goes on like a phony kid jumpin around as if *Oh I Defeated a Legend Yeaah Mommy*

So the best word that suits him a grown up Kid..besides he wont be maki to the finals anyways so let the kid enjoy his time.

Perhaps thats the best he will have to tell his grand kids that once he defeated an Olympic Champ the Legend Chen Long .

Nah, I was being real rather than sentimental.

Since he no longer trains physically in the national camp I don't see the scope of improvement either.

Not blaming him either. You will never find the motivation to run 5 km every day or do heavy muscle training when you have all the golds and the riches back home.

Lin Dan doesn't do even 25% of what CL, Shi Yuqi go through.
 
Sai Praneeth is a waste and a blot for the whole game of badminton quite honestly..Someone should ask him to leave this game for the sake of all those who love badminton.
We as Fans love Those players who win and also who lose but who Lose GRACEFULLY not like total losers.

The way praneeth is losing its like he is here to have a vacation in bali and have already booked his flights and cant wait to get out of this tournament.

Sai Praneeth isn't giving a flying 'F' to results these days.

He has made his share of money and might want to make baby now.

Well Leverdez dance moves were nice to see it was the first time i ever saw an immature player dancing as if he had climed up the everest but rightly so afterall Its a "PREVILIGE" to defeat the Olympic Champion.

Let this kid enjoy as far as CL us concerned he is one of the legends of Badminton world and by his interviews a very humble human being I was rooting for him but no worries ...It was just the sheer humility of CL to let the kid enjoy lol

No worries CL i knw ull come back stronger.

As far as Brice,Well he is a kid from a country which has never had any Top Badminton players or an Olympic Medalists So may be in his country its an achievement to defeat an Olympic Champ by Sheer luck...Let the kid have all the fun.

Wish u all the best of luck Dear CL..Lookin forward for yr matches.

Wow chill out That's just a game.

Brice has been a top 30 since years, beating some of the best players.

Can't he enjoy?
Does Chen long, lin dan, Lee chong wei never enjoy a victory against their opponents?
 
Lin Dan thought he could win without expending too much energy, esp after equalizing with G3 in convincing fashion, he again eased off and realized too late the opponent was determined to go all out to beat him.

That's true, physically he isn't fit enough.

But it looked to me there was still more in him than what he had showed us. We'll see.
