    Really good to hear Tian HouWei having a good championship, he's been the eternal bridesmaid. :(

    Takamatsu pushed to the edge. SO MANY rallies over a 100 shots

    Carolina Marin would beat Lin Dan in this form.

    Carolina is in such great form. Can't wait for her face-off with Nozomi, one of her greatest challenger

    Look at there H2H I can sleep just by looking at those scorelines and imagine the rallies.
    But never ever blinked even once, I knew they would win. It's just that why can't they finish it early. Can't remember the last time they won in 2 straights

    Undoubtedly.
    Remember once Serena said she would like to play Andy Murray or something like that.

    To be realistic, even if Chen Yufei , or Chen Xiaoxin for that matter, were to go to the final and meet Marin, they would be too inexperienced to stop her.

    Good performance by Chen Yufei. Akane looked surprised by the opposition, perhaps slightly underestimating her opponent given their head to head. She will be disappointed but it is her fist world championship after all

    It wouldn't be close. Carolina would not allow Lin Dan more than 10 points per game and if Lin Dan gets intimidated by her shrieks, I will reduce the points to 7 or 8.

    You can't be serious, you don't only need a new pair of specs, you need a new brain, my friend.:p:D

    For once, I'm more than entertained by you, making my toes laugh.:):p:D:D:D

    "Carolina Marin's Shriek is super effective!"
    "Lin Dan's mental power is reduced."

    Carolina Marin will get Lin Dan by movement pressure I think.

    Another slow start for new WR2 Shi Yuqi?
    He is having a hard time calibrating his style against opponent's style.
