having mental trauma is even worse than physical one... :/So CM should have faked an injury so everyone would let her retire peacefully? I don't see anything wrong with her retiring.

Please explain the truth. How much do you know about her? You only see what you see and turn it into the "truth". Stop acting as if you know her really well.She was getting a beating, and the final score would've been worse than the 21-5 she got against An Se Young so she decided to quit.
Palatable excuses on instagram do not equal truth.
I doubt peoples can let CM go if she fakes an injury. They may even think that she makes an excuse. Yeah, just like you, I don't see anything wrong with her retiring. Apparently, some peoples here tend to view her negatively.So CM should have faked an injury so everyone would let her retire peacefully? I don't see anything wrong with her retiring.
I can understand you. Most of the tournaments have some peoples here complaining about the scheduling. Unfortunately, nothing can be done. I do agree that some of the matches from Ct.3/4 are more exciting than some matches from Ct.1.Fajri and ahsan/hendra both on court 3/4 tomorrow...how lame
Well, it's not like Ginting hasn't lost to Ng Ka Long before. In fact, Ng only incresed his H2H record to 7-3 now. So I guess he knows something about beating Ginting.
and ur imagination would? just like someone thought there's another story behind tai not attend wc2017 (well i dont remember any here think that, but a vietnamese fan page did make it up)
we're not the insider
Right...just like li/liu when they played liu/zhang at the WC, no need to be an insider to see there's something wrong with that match.Imagination ? What imagination ? What are you even talking about?
I don't need to be an insider to understand what is in front of my eyes...
We saw :
TAI loose against Akane when she was ill (Indonesia Open iirc)
Axelsen loose to Christie after a 9 point lead due to cramps (French Open)
Shi Yu Qi be destroyed by Sitthikom Thammasin due to blisters (Macau Open)
Akane loose to Yeo Jia Min at the WC due to developing an injury (her back?)
but all of them finished their matches.
It is one thing to retire due to being injured. It is another to not finish the game claiming "sickness" as an excuse.
Hasn't been feeling well the past few days ? LOL
so now you admit that she's sickness and not faking sickness. Sickness of course is the reason, not something has to find to be an excuse.Imagination ? What imagination ? What are you even talking about?

just by his eyes? Bwf need to fire all their doctors and hiring himNo, man. He didn't admit it. That's why he quoted the "sickness".
Lol, hahaha. Let him try if he think that his observation is so great that he declares it as a truth.just by his eyes? Bwf need to fire all their doctors and hiring him
There we go again - what about the Marcus/Kevin vs Alfian/Adianto match at the Victor China Open? And how is this related to the CM's retirement match on grounds of sickness?Right...just like li/liu when they played liu/zhang at the WC, no need to be an insider to see there's something wrong with that match.
let's give all the would-be Olympians a bit more leeway
Fair enough, I respect that. Anyway, the point is: what rule did Marin break? Didn't BWF give her the benefit of the doubt, that's the little bit of leeway I have in mind without any rule violation, of course. I am also just expressing my view, regardless of my subjective opinion of Marin's personality ( frankly, I'm not her fan either though I admire her skills and tenacity but that's beside the point). Cheers.I don't have a problem with CM's decision to retire. She seems like an obnoxiously competitive person so I don't think she would have taken this decision to retire lightly.
That said, why should "would-be Olympians" get more leeway? As pointed out before, forum members aren't BWF officials so our opinions mean nothing in the grand scheme of things. But people should be able to express their feelings/theories on the end of the match, whether positive or negative and whether the player is an Olympian, World Champion or a wild card entry.
I think people tend to only see the worst in others, which is a shame. In my humble opinion, Marin had issues right from the start.
For example, she returned the shuttle to places where TTY wasn't standing at all several times. What other explanation could there be for that other than issues with her sight? She simply couldn't see TTY and thus "returned" the shuttle like that. It's only natural that you can't play well when your eye sight is impaired. Everybody should be able to understand that.
In the second game, she started also started to suffer from digestive problems. TTY's dominant play was so hard to stomach, Marin simply got sick.
So half-blind, and dangerously close to a gargantuan gastrointestinal gaffe, she decided to call it a day. Well done to her! "Safety first", as the old folks used to say.
And let's not kid ourselves, what would we have done in that situation? Soldier on for 5 more minutes of half a game? Won't somebody please think of the Olympics?
To be honest, I'm still slightly outraged by that umpire, who apperently couldn't see the danger she was in and wouldn't let her leave court immediately. Who does he think he is? A doctor?
No, it's good she ended the match before it was too late.
Let's all wish her a speedy recovery.
in your sarcasm, you already claim that you have doctor eyes. And doctor refer to me who saying she's not faking sickness. While your sarcasm only show that its not seriously enough for her to retire, not showing its faking sicknessTo be honest, I'm still slightly outraged by that umpire, who apperently couldn't see the danger she was in and wouldn't let her leave court immediately. Who does he think he is? A doctor?
What everyone questioning here is the timing she chose to retire from the match. Why retire at 1-13? Did something physically happen to her at that point that prevented her playing? Or just that she couldn’t simply take any more of embarrassment being on the court? Or just didn’t like to let the opponent be happy about the win?According to the BWF instagram account she had fever and throat infection. I have no idea if it's real but I don't see how is that totally mpossible to consider just because it's CM...
