oh dang after playing well like that but loses the match lol
Yes All Indonesian Finals for tomorrow MD
I’ll cheer for FajRi tomorrow!
HLF quite strong smash for female xd player & defense doesn't suffer....
Can't remember when was the last time CYF beat TTY in two straight sets. Or has it happened before? Almost blew it the second set with four matchpoints up.
CYF is proving to be such a fighter now. Great job. Keep it up !
interesting to see how it goes on the G3.
who is more nervous, soh or ardianto.
The MAS girls may as well give a walkover.
A several point lead at the beginning or middle but not near the end of a set or match is not or seldom considered insurmountable but salvageable in many cases, even among the top guns.Or tty mess it up with a 4 points lead in the 2nd set. In most cases, with that kind of lead, it should be a formality for people of her stature. I mean most opponents will just concentrate on the next game.
If tty did not make stupid mistakes, cyf would not have reached that position.
She has shown she has a week mentality after losing after being in a good position to win a few times

These two have met so many times, they are like perennial rivals. Though their H2H is still quite in favour of TTY ,it's not reflective of their relative strengths as most of TTY's wins are in the early stage of CYF's career, who happens to be 4 years younger and barely midway through her career at age 24 now. Honours are about even in their last 6 to 8 encounters.
Going forward, I should see CYF continuing her ascendancy as age is on her side vis-a-vis TTY who's just turned 28.
Well, as for TTY making stupid mistakes, nothing unusual if you've been following her, and not only for her, it happens sometimes for quite a few top players, you can name them yourselves. Today, CYF happened to be on top of her game, somewhat to my surprise actually, especially considering how she's having an off-day against Intanon Ratchanok at last Sunday's MAS Open Final.
I see. TBH, before the match began, I'd expected TTY to start strongly in an attempt to avenge her defeat to CYF last week, also considering CYF seemed off-form last Sunday versus IR.What I meant was, if say one of those top players already won the first set and the opponent is leading by a high margin like what tai tzu ying was leading, they will normally give up the 2nd set.
But tai tzu ying mistakes let her in.
I dun think she is that dominatable force anymore
I seldom see players coming from behind in the 2nd set to win. But happened in hendra match and tai tzu ying match
That's why I am in such a bad mood today.
I put my bets on tai to win at least the 2nd set and for the China pair to win.
China pair showed mental fortitude to win hoki from behind yet can still messed up a large lead that they have in the 2nd set and let Ahsan win by a huge margin.
Badminton is so unpredictable.
By the way. I have seen too many times where China doubles players allow their opponents to come back from a huge position.
Wonder if there is match fixing involved.
The odds were very good for the China pair and most ppl would think they will win.
Funny also that despite cyf winning the first set, the odds suddenly favoured tty when she took the lead in the first set.
That is why never put too much money on a single match. Anything can happen. Unless it's an axelson
Let FajRi win tomorrow, they're the most consistent pair this year anyway. I just want Hendra to get his 5th gold at the WC this yearYes All Indonesian Finals for tomorrow MD
FajRi look nervous in the crunch time of Game 2: served to the net consecutively… I was still quite upset after what happened in the final last weekend MAS Open,,, fearing that they would lost rhythm and focus in Game 3… but afterall their performance at Game 3 today is top notch,,, if FajRi is laser focus on the game, it will be very tough for the opponent.
I’ll cheer for FajRi tomorrow!

To my surprise, it was CYF who was the more positive and proactive of the two from the get-go. I'd have use the term comprehensive victory for CYF if not for the slip-up in G2 when she was holding 4 matchpoints; basically, CYF outplayed TTY today.
As for MD Liang Weikeng/Wang Chang , 22 and 21 years old respectively, they are still relatively young and inexperienced and was outfoxed by the legendary veteran, vastly experienced pair Ahsan/Setiawan, who cleverly changed tactics and strategy at just the right moment to get ahead of the young guns. As I've always believed, there's no substitute for experience.
Better luck next time for the promising pair, LWK/WC.
Btw, it's not just in badminton, or sports , for that matter, life itself is so unpredictable, uncertain, as human history has proven time and time again. All the best.
Actually, tzy was not outclass in the 2nd set. She had a healthy lead and should be on track to winning the 2nd set of not for her blunders. She should never had been in the position to allow cyf to get to the position she was in at the 2nd set in the first place.I see.

To add, in my opinion, CHN MD is in the midst of transitioning , they haven't yet completely found the right formula to produce really good and reliable pairs. The signs are there, I'd rate Liu Yuchen/Ou Xuanyi, He Jiting/Zhou Haodong, Liang Weikeng/Wang Chang, in that order in terms of potential; and perhaps one or two other combinations, such as with Tan Qiang, Ren Xiangyu, Liu Cheng, Huang Kaixiang, Di Zijian, even not ruling out Zhang Nan (if he hasn't retired).
Atm, CHN MD is on the cusp of producing world-beaters, a matter of time, hopefully sooner than I expected.
I understand, but having watched so many TTY's matches not only with CYF but any other strong opponents, I'm accustomed to seeing her play brilliantly one moment for a run of points only to suddenly, or inexplicably, if you like, throw away an equal number of points like a mediocre player - still it's not any Jane, Jill and Mary who could do that to her, only a handful of top players, that it no longer catches me by surprise.To let tai tzu
Well I would not say cyf outclass tzy in the 2nd set. It's a set tzy should have won.she was leading by quite a huge margin at one point. Someone of her experience should have taken advantage of that situation.instead she allowed cyf to get 10 -11 straight points.
Like you said, she should have won the last tournament. And I thought she will at least try her best for this match.
But she messed up heavily again when she ha

If you actually watch the match, you would not have said that cyf trashed tzy in the 2nd set. Like I said earlier tzy had a comfortable margin at 1 point and she allowed cyf to just take consecutive points. That's mental messed up.
It's a sign of decline actually when this happens. I really doubt that she can actually perform at the same level to cyf again.
Don't worry, CBA takes a very serious view of such things, they will come down hard on any offenders. Just look at Shi Yuqi, CBA banned him from all international and domestic tournaments for one whole year for something that BWF couldn't care less as he didn't breach any rules or regulations and violate any laws - it's CBA's own initiative, their internal decision, a self-imposed disciplinary action, a matter of national pride and image.Well. If they are not involved in match fixing, I am sure they will.
