    A great win for Ong/Teo, but Boe/Mog isn't playing as well as I expected.
    Oh well.

    Good grief, Chooi/Low. So close yet so far.

    INA no2 MD finally won the match in a close match of 3 games.

    Yeah, it has been a while since their international tournament together. Mog seemed to have a little bit problem with his right arm/shoulder?
    Hopefully they would do better in Indonesia Open.

    I have just noticed it, but Wang/Huang is actually WR1 now. Never thought that they can reach the pinnacle.

    This is the second time they've reached it. They did so some time April or May I believe dethroning Zheng/Chen.

    No one will blame you for being so :D
    The WR keeps changing every week. In MD Liu/Zhang is WR2 now with Boe/Mog at #3, Duo Mads at #4 and Li/Liu at #5.

    And so they do lose after a close opening game. 21-9 in the second.

    They have had inconsistent results before when trained by Jeremy so that is difficult to correlate..

    One coach doesn't make them any difference if they have weak mental strength, and inconsistency. Under JYG, they also haven't made any good result except few.

    Mogensen should stop playing if he injured. Brain aneurysm is dangerous complications and i am not sure his hand is just a normal physical injury.

    Plus the age factor, can't imagine if Boe/Mogensen will compete Tokyo 2020, 40/38 years old. Hats-off to Danish players, their passion and desire for badminton is really admirable.

    For people like this, badminton could very well be his life. If he wants to keep going as long as he can, then who are we to stop hom?

    Pusarla survived scare in G1. She kept attacking even at crunch time, that's promising
