    Who do you think MK/HS prefer to play on Final round? CHN or KOR? What's the chance for INA to beat any of those two pairs? Any comments???

    I know Umpire can overrule line judge.
    Can he/she do the same to the service judge?

    Cute net play with Hwang/Cai.

    Brutally finished by Fu when mid court lifted.

    Yonex is amazing. how can they make racket that stays intact with this kind of ruthless smashing force?

    Good pushing play by korea 17-19

    but with Fu at net KOR soon have attack. Good defence takes Cai out ofthe game, but KOR hit net with block.

    3rd Service fault against CHN

    I am not sure. It is too quick at point of contact to judge even in slow mo.

    The way Cai follows through on his serve looks like it is fault.......he goes over with the head.

    Cai/Fu should calm down, they still have 2 game points.

    20-18
