    the Thai boys lead at the interval of the first game.
    The Koreans are playing like zombies; they cannot adapt the changes of pace that the Thais are subjecting them to.

    I noticed them when they pulled off the sensational upset over Mak/Tan in the Asian Games team event to lead Thailand to victory over Malaysia's men team. However, they didn't do well in the Sudirman Cup...\

    What's the score now?

    LYD is now flying all over the court. I think they're leading now

    KSH/LYD leads 20-19 now. Thai pair just blew their 19-16 lead.

    Make it 21-19

    Korea took game 1 with some pretty powerful play after the interval, but the Thai boys' intensity dropped drastically at the same time. Hope the second game isn't a rout....

    The thinner of the 2 Thai boys (the right-hander) appears to be making too many costly errors...

    Can't believe that Taufik had to dig deep vs WWK.....I guess WWK is in same level now....Interesting rematch 2mrw vs MZ...Taufik better not lose twice over the same guy :pAlso duels between "oldies" in WS final, rooting for Lady Pi though....

    Korea leads at the interval.
    Not sure about this, but it may also be that the (right-hander) Thai is carrying some kinda injury; he doesn't appear to move very well...

    ...and the Koreans take the match.
    ...I think the left-handed Thai guy was pretty de-motivated towards the very end... :(

    Looking at the scoreline, game 2 displays one-sided match as the Thai boys only get 10 points...

    I see a lot of potential in Tian Houwei. He pushed Taufik to two close games. I can see Tian Houwei becoming a top 5 player when he matures his game.

    I don't think WWK is at the same level as Taufik. Read my summary of the tournament below.
