The edge is still on lindan, this guy can still fly. TH is slowing down due to family commitment and he normally focus on biggies. Hopefully its an interesting and heart pounding game (with controversies) as usual to give fans the excitement.
hi Man, If one of the greedy player join to all IBF tournament. He will be the top ranking no.1 Actually, I am not agree to the IBF Ranking. Lin Dan got titles like 2 times World Championship. the Second time he got because the IBF change the rules for World Championship every year (Last time every 2 years). Lin Dan also got alot SS Champion and Open Champion... so total will be 16 Champion Taufik Hidayat got titles: - 1 time World Championship. He beat Lin Dan very easier in final - 1 time Olimpic Champion. He beat korean player easier in final - 2 times Asian Games Champion (2002 and 2006). He beat Lee Yun Il straight set in 2002 and he beat Lin Dan straight set in 2006. Taufik Got alot titles champion for Open Tournament=14 Champion Base On this above record. So difficult for us to predict right... You can see from the Yonex Advertisement: Taufik - Skill Expert Lin Dan - Power Expert. Taufik Stamina not fully good. Lin Dan Stamina very very good Taufik's Skill better than Lin Dan. Strategy/Tactic, TH also better than Lin Dan. But one of this we can't forget: Stamina/Power/Movement Faster, Can cover and take anywhere the shuttlecock go... Nah This one Lin Dan Better then Taufik.
Yes. I think can be 50-50. that's way I am not refer to the ranking. The Ranking is just ranking. In Final TH Alway Beat LD. But Qf, SF I don't thing TH can beat LD.. but i want taufik win.
Are you sure about your statement above? I disagree with that one. Even if one play in ALL BWF tourneys, if he/she is not good enough, he/she won't be World #1.
Many would think that the in-form Lin Dan has the edge over the off-form Taufik. But we can never discount on Taufik because history tells us that Taufik can play extremely well when playing top players especially Lin Dan. It will be a battle of skills + fitness + mental. LD will win in two tight sets or 3 thrilling sets. For TH, I don't see him winning in straight sets but he still has a little chance of upsetting LD in 3 sets.
please win for ur daughter Th.u have let her down in WC..dont let it happen again.. when she grow up,what will u answer if she ask.. "why do u lost just after my birth,daddy?"...(something like this lah) come on taufiq,Ld is nothing.u are everything.in the court today
it will be optimistic for LD win.. but i paw on taufik.. the important thing is i dunwan all china final! since ina players been a lot of trouble to LD.. maybe , juz maybe, taufik can beat him this time!
Can't see any channels listed there, could you post them here? Btw on recent performance I don't think that Taufik will be able to beat LD...but let's see
My prediction is that Lin Dan will take the Victory. It doesn't matter in 2 oder 3 sets. Victory counts. Althought i'm a big fan of TH due to his technique perfection, i do not believe that he can take over LD who is physically much more stronger. At that Level of profession it isn't the fact of better technique rather that the fact of better fitness.
If u said that can play extremely well while playing against top players, does that means that LCW is not a top player??? Well, he cant beat LCW... Hmmm... I prefer the fact that LCW is not a top player as I like TH.. Of course I like LD more!!! haha
That's why TH can only win with crowd support to energise him. LD bu jia you, hai keyi. TH bu jia you, bu keyi.
Make sure the umpire and linesman will not give him a hard time. And also shuttle cock problems. ehhehe
