    Yamaguchi playing really good smashes. Choosing down the middle, down the line. RI can't get them back

    Ratchanok out of gas already.

    She will cramp again if she miraculously takes it to 3rd set.

    Game plan for Thailand is to use all mean to stop Japan from winning before the fifth match. If they can do that, they win.

    How many half court smashes has she put into the net now to keep Intanon in the match?

    So I guess he wants to gamble to take a point from one of the doubles, because Japan has sort of equal strength there. Or maybe to take point from FukuHiro or TanaYone, not knowing who will play and at which TakaMatsu will play

    AY take first point for JPN.

    I am afraid, even with the awesome home crowd support, it might be a task too tough for THA at this point.

    God damn, I'm aging by a ratio of about 3 years per match. :D
