Fastdrop noticed that CJ did not move well....he mentioned that he would retire soon...then he did....one of the player told me that it seems that his waist had a problem...lets see if CJ will play China Open next week....
It was entertaining match...too bad that at the end...Howard made few mistakes...he was too excited in critical points....
He really blew it. Missed a great opportunity to capitalize on LD's withdrawal and probably took it too easy against Tanongsak. The young Thai proves once again he is an up-and-comer to watch. Jet lag over?
CJ's waist problem has been on-going for a while. He might be better served to miss a few tournaments to recuperate. Kinda feel bad for him. He has been a tremendously loyal foot soldier for LYB.
Problem is, besides him who else can carry the load in china's MS? LD is picking and choosing whatever tourney he wants to play and BCL is even more frickles than CJ.
Sanongsak, Tago, CL and probably Hayom from INA will be the next generation slugging it out in MS. Will be nice if we have representative from Europe...be it Jorgensen or someone else.
That's what I mean about him being a loyal foot soldier... in fact to a fault. Even when he knows he's injured, he gives his all. LYB has to accept the upcoming crop of MS players will have to go through their ups and downs ion climbing their way to the top. Even than they're nowhere near their current peers and there are some fantastic players from other countries than can more than match them.
sorry man.. i just follow this tournament.. Where is LD.. I saw him in the draw n in seeded entry. He withdraw? What is the reason?TQ
I thought.. ..the sign was there during the recent Denmark Open when he lost in rubber games to Marc Zwiebler aka The Gallant Knight.. His loss, CJ's loss, BP's loss & Saina's loss were the surprises of the day.
