i believe in this OG, it is all business for the chinese players. As noted by one journalist, LD and XXF didnt even glanced at each other when they were playing at adjacent courts. Fu/cai did not give away easy point to the US team. So i think LD will try to finish the PG match with business like fashion. My guess is PG will go all assault ASAP to take the momentum. No need to save energy for the rubber because he knows it might not even go to a rubber set.
Beijing Olympics 2008: Lin Dan defeated Peter Gade at the Quarter-Finals . Quarter-Finals Results: Lin Dan defeated Peter Gade ... 21/13, 21/16. .
This is correct. In the games I have seen of LD against Park & Gade he did not do any of his show off stroke, he played controlled badminton. I am not saying he went all out, as this is not how singles is played, but he played seriously and without losing concentration. It was quite simple to see Lin was serious in the match today, very few smiles, no arguing, just do a job. His biggest test will be the Final (assuming he beats CJ)
