A little profile on her here. http://www.nzba.net.nz/news/details/introducing-ji-hyun-marr/10/ Seems like an exciting person to have as a coach
I would interpret that as the conditions within the arena favour Sindhu. That would be consistent with her other victories. To be honest, the commentators also have an advantage over us viewers being in the arena. They can feel the conditions much better.
Tomorrow i wanna see how much In that case, he said that the conditions favour Powerful player, definitely Tai is powerful player than Akane yamaguchi . Then, how come she lost? There are certain cases, which he can't answer.
In the post match interview , Tai said she wasn't feeling well. (The interview was posted earlier in this thread)
Well either Chou (silver at AG) or Anders will net he biggest title in their career.m Though i will go with Anders. He has been clutch and can make 2 victories out of 2 SS Finals while Chou, imo loses in Final more often than not. Not to forget that compared to Axelsen who loses his first 6 SS Finals. Antonsen can turn out to be better than Ax in terms of achievements.
VA was competing with some of the greats of the game and of course Momota in that time period. Since then, he has acquired so many titles including a WC gold and Oly Bronze. AA is still pretty much in the early stage of his career Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
FINAL => https://www.tournamentsoftware.com/...81BCD7-C90F-482F-8CCF-96EFE0C6C8E4&d=20190721 ANTONSEN LUCKY GROUND? Anders Antonsen will seek another crown in Istora Senayan, the same venue when he beat Kento Momota early this year at INA Masters Super 500 event. The fortune approaches Danish young man, smooth path into last round, the toughest hurdle should be world number two Shi Yu Qi but the Chinese could't complete the match due suffering terrible ankle injury. Antonsen power pasts Wong Wing Ki straight-forwardly, 21-17 / 21-10. Earlier semifinal match, well-determined Chou Tien Chen once again battled hard to eliminate the persistent Kantaphon Wangcharoen, more patient and experience Chou seized the momentum in deciding game as his younger opponent was too rush to unleash attacking shots. A chance for Chou to rectify his setbacks in this season, he passed heavyweight obstacles here Lin Dan, Jonatan Christie and one more step to earn top prize in BWF top-tier tour. SINDHU RETURNS TO FINAL First final for Indian mega star Pusarla V. Sindhu in 2019 after triumphed Guangzhou Finals jackpot end of last year, the glimpse of Sindhu good form is back after exhibiting string of uninspired performance lately. She downed the on-fire Chinese WS Chen Yu Fei, 21-19 / 21-10, Chen wasted good chance in 18-14 lead then Sindhu got second wind to catch up deficit, more aggressive and composed than Chen who started to losing focus and patience to seal opening game instead became boomerang. Second game was totally one-sided encounter, fully dominated by the Indian tall lady. Tai Tzu Ying was completely out of shape with ton of errors, succumbed to Akane Yamaguchi, 9-21 / 15-21, the Taiwanese ace wasn't unwell considering her below-par action. Sindhu has advantage based on head to head stats against Yamaguchi, 10-4 and fast hall usually will favour to offensive player. THREE NATIONS FOR DOUBLES INA Masters rematch between two Indonesian backbones, world number one Gideon/Sukamuljo and rejuvenated Ahsan/Setiawan will cross sword to retain their title at homeground event. The Minions destroy Chinese twin towers Li/Liu, 21-9 / 21-13 while the veterans dropped opening game before changed strategy to neutralize fast furious Japanese pair Hoki/Kobayashi, 17-21 / 21-19 / 21-17. Both finalists had pocketed INA Open title previously, the Minions did it last year and their senior scored best in 2013 edition. Equal chance for women's double final contest between Matsutomo/Takahashi versus Fukushima/Hirota. The steady Olympic Champions dismiss Lee SH/Shin SC in three games, 17-21 / 21-14 / 21-15, thanks to excellent placement to stem Korean number one attacking style. Title-holders Fukushima/Hirota outplay reigning All England Champion Chen QC/Jia YF, the Japanese pair displayed smart interception combined with excellent defense to frustrate the Chinese duo who're quite lack of shot variations. China sure point as predicted coming from mixed doubles department, world number one and two dispose Malaysian rivals, Zheng/Huang oumaneuver Tan/Lai, 21-12 / 21-16 and will redeem their semifinal losing last year to nail second Super 1000 title in 2019 after All England last March. Wang/Huang got stiff resistance in second game by Rio OG silver medalists Chan/Goh but still the quick Chinese combo denied rubber games to secure final spot, 22-20.
i'll tell you what... if AA wins today then he's good regardless....if AA loses today then he really should consider playing without coach
Hi, guys. I am at Istora right now. I know that Istora isn't big. But, after I come here, it is smaller than I thought.
watching these 2 JPN WDs duke it out reminds me how dumb INA WDs are, not to mention so inferior the physicals, n so far behind in stability during rallies....regeneration pls coach too if neccessary....
Same game as ever. Much more winners and attacking play from AY, Sindhu gets everything back without making mistakes, eventually AY puts it wide. Well, at least she's trying.
Commentator during this match so far: When Sindhu wins a point: *silence* When Akane wins a point: I like it. Great pressure by Yamaguchi. Btw, I like this umpire. She is cute. Play hard. Train harder.
Might have something to do that AY does much more in terms of attacking play to win points while Sindhu just lifts everything in until the opponents makes an error. Not exactly breathtaking, even though it's highly successful of course.
wow, never saw AY attacking as much as in this game ever nice2, more aggression to complement her 'perfect' defense
What can you expect from Steen. Even when nothing comes from Akane, the praises will be all over the match. But today i am seeing a totally aggressive Akane on the other side.
