The difference between WCH and Hafiz and TH is the 100% effort he puts into every game. Despite his age (not quite uncle level but getting there), he still provides an excellent example to the juniors on what being a pro is about.
Yeah, the experience won the match particular at critical point. First Maria has already out, waiting for another two Maria...
Bona Septano/Mohd Ahsan have beaten Simon Mollyhus/Anders Kristiansen 21-18, 21-12. The luck of the draw, with Fu/Cai withdrawing, means that they should progress to the QF, probably facing the in-form Fuzzy pair. 2 good results in consecutive SS tourneys for them, which should elevate their rankings back to the top 50.
Absolutely agree. When I watched WCH played against BCL in TC08, WCH was cursing when he missed few shots or when BCL retrived those deadly shots... I could see WCH played with his heart, and that's why I salute him. Unlike Mr.Yoyo... errr... forget it...
