Danisa Denmark Open 2017 (October 17-22, 2017)

2-3 years from now, if not injured, Chen Yufei should be way ahead of everybody else, as she matures and gains more strength and experience. A phase which LXR enjoyed for quite some time.
 
.. plenty of very tall players in professional sports all over the globe have strong legs.... being tall doesn't excuse non-existent leg muscles.

I agree. But I don't think we will see his legs grow much bigger due to genetics. But there is still room for stronger legs and better stamina indeed.

I don't agree with Steen's comments on drift playing a part in Victor's losses. Having said that, it is for both the players. And who will handle the drift better than the players from the host country? . Victor's home ground where he would have practiced even more time than SK. Then how come he is blaming drift for his loss, it's beyond my imagination.

I also disagree with Steen's comment. But I disagree with your reasoning. The venue has been renovated since last year. Much more drift. While home ground is definitely a significant advantage in many regards, I don't think it extends to handling drift in this particular case. I would be surprised if Viktor had practised in this hall prior to the event.
