Metro TV's interview with Maria after winning the bronze (in Indonesian) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B5Glw4HDBq8
ahaa...trims yo... Maria said Lu Lan has not good mental strength...so make Maria has good confidence to win the match... Maria...all the best to u...keep spirit and motivation to grab GOLD medal in London Olympic 2012 for INA`s Gold Olympic medal tradition..
I hope this win can give a boost for her compatriots in Pelatnas, as well as a confident for PBSI to send them out playing abroad. Ayo, pemain putri Indonesia, bring back the golden era of Susy-cs. You can do it!!! p.s. How many main players of single woman sector in Pelatnas? As far as I know we only have Maria, Ardiyanti, and Pia. Who else?
This win is all about mentals & is being passed on to her from Hendrawan, that's why a very good coach is very essential.
COngrate to Maria. With chinese younger generation taking time catching up and older players retiring, she has a great chance winning more SS in near future. Good to see more new challengers coming up against chinese domination in WS besides those "imported" chinese players playing overseas, Tine and WMC.
i think it's too fast too judge her as cengeng or fragile.. it just sucks too lose when u are so close to win and it's hard to accept even when you try to..
Hey, give that girl a break... She's about the same age with me. Still emotionally fragile indeed! Pssst, she's cute too!
