i think the umpire in the KG/HBJ match is pushing the match to end early so that he can rush to the washroom.
Kirsty Gilmour to QF of World Championship for the first time ever, beating the higher seeded CHN player He Bingjao in three set.
Boe/Mog not quite like at SGP Open but quite good. JPN pair are fast and keep pressuring the Danes even when they are down 14-17, if I am not mistaken.
throughout the match, he's hurrying the players to get back on court after mopping, urging players not to delay and not giving towel breaks. i don't think i saw this in the previous match between SN/SJH.
So I was completely wrong Kirsty plays like MS coz she can afford to. Her steam tank larger than most. So, Kirsty can attack all day like SN and has the physicality of PVS, it'll be very difficult for SN tomorrow. But nonetheless it was pleasure to watch and that celebration, can melt even those who weren't supporting her
European player's body tend to have much tank than Asian players. It was really heartwarming especially after winning it in from of home crowd.
The umpire in KS vs Antonsen the best available in the tournament imo. She infact called them to take a break after every long rally, and called the moppers on every single dive. And was very polite as well..
But Kirsty is way too fast and aggressive for a European WS player (CM aside, she's altogether something else) maybe because she trains under a MAS coach, that too a MS coach. Her style is utterly refreshing and entertaining. Never missing her matches again
Maybe another undeveloped talent. It is not rare to see these kind of player which can play better if given the right training. Yeah, MAS coach is really helping her.
lets hope she continues to improve, she always had the makings of a top 10 player but can be too erratic at times
That umpire form the She hasn't been with this MAS coach for long, so can't take credit for her form, she was previously with a Dutch coach.
