Shhh...don't let Chen Long hear you or he'll kick your butt for misrepresenting him. To him, it's just some healthy internal rivalry for the two available Olympic spots, that's all.
I don't know. Maybe some non-technical issues. Polii is already over 30. I wonder if she starts to decline due to the aging.
Yeah. I mean, look at CL there. He stops and looks around like "tf was that". No wonder he had that little outbreak later on.
Chen Lo It sucks a bit. Considering that there is a big chance that no one ever suprases LD's Olympic achivement.
That was just LD practicing his long serve. Please give him the benefit of doubt Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I think what he's doing is actually quite clever. It looks like he's treating this like sparring, trying to engage Momota in long rallies, tight net shots and so on, instead of going for quick winners. He's commiting way too many errors, of course, but I think it is still the right choice of plan at this stage of his career.
Yeah, there seems to be something wrong with him physically. He isn't moving well in game 2. And now he's retiring, damn.
First Daren Liew and now Lee Zii Jia! Momota has faced two consecutive retirements, and played just 20 minutes or so in each match. He's probably wondering what's happening.
DONG Wen Jing / FENG Xue Ying doesn't look boyish that's a good thing now that's just hyperbolic, so over the top
INA WS, WD are gone early what a terrible outing. Jonatan is facing tough opponents throughout at the lower half. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
