    100% agree with you.

    I doubted that, the umpire even doesn't know it was 2 touches from Chen's racket (even I have to watched twice in 0.25 slow motion to see what's happened)

    And how can he know it's "one string-one head" touch or 2 times string-touch in 0.2 second to give an exactly decison.

    I am talking about all players of course ;). Those who won a title as well as those who haven't.

    And I totally agree about Olympics and WC. No question about those. Sorry if that wasn't clear, because your reply seems to talk a lot about those. Totally agree about those two. My challenge was only about the WTF vs AE, AG, TC/UC. I think you will have a hard time finding any pro player who would rank WTF above these.

    Choi/Kim beat Hoki/Kobayashi.

    Hoki/Kobayashi doesn't seem to play that well against Korean MD,I wonder why. But the Korean MD keeps losing to all the other countries.

    Oh yeah, Prannoy won G2! Very sad that he already has lost his chance to progress

    Prannoy defeated Viktor twice in a year. Once in last December and now. He had chances against Lu Guangju and Kodai but he missed it. I am worried about his knee. His injury should not come again. So many bandages in his right knee . I accept what Steen said about Prannoy. He is one of the smartest players .

    It was last November in Indonesia Masters, and VA was not feeling well at that time. Nevertheless, it may still have affected them both mentally. It definitely seems to me like Prannoy is the type of player who always believes he can win against anyone. A good trait.

    Excuses . Ok. Now, have you seen Prannoy ?. He just now came back from injury . His right knee is strapped completely. He was in discomfort when he played Lu guangju. Today he played smartly . It's not easy to win Viktor considering his height. Only few players could beat him because of their game.

    Excuse but still a fact. Obvious if you watched it.
    I did not watch the match today (time zones :( ) so I did not mention it. If Prannoy just came back from injury that just makes his victory even more impressive!

    congrats Prannoy for beating Axelsen.

    Busanan also almost beat He Bingjiao

    The daddies lost straight games to Liu/Ou

    Top contenders played slackly because they already qualified to semifinal?

    Ratchanon must be one of the most mentally weak player around.

    There there is a loophole:

    Ahsan/Setiwan already qualified, so that if Alfian/Ardianto want to avoid their peers, both pair have to be the number 2 or the number 1 of their group to avoid each other.

    And guess what, both become the number 2 will be easier and they can save energy for next round.

    I don't blame to any one but I think Hoki/Kobayashi was affected when Alfian/Ardianto don't try hard to win Ong/Teo.
    >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
    I know Ahsan/Setiwan will lose 0-2 to Liu/Ou to save energy and to avoid their peers from before.

    I don't judge, just say.

    Axelsen will face Naraoka in the SF, it is the best possible draw for him.
