    No, that's not it.
    SN arguably is the most determined player on court. Are you new to badminton, never heard Steen say "no matter what the scoreline is, never rule out SN" or GC say " you can never count this lady off". Even when under pressure/recovering from injury/or is wrong footed or late to a shot in a rally, SN never gives up.
    And I am not saying PVS does!
    Also, it might appear that way cause

    PVS's style is such that, her matches are/will be naturally longer, she's a retreiver and someone who tanks on her stamina and reach.

    Also, your conclusion maybe derived from watching SN's matches against TTY or some other player who's "quicker" than her. It's not she gives up, it's cause of her age, injuries, body shape etc she wasn't/and will never be the fastest on court and that's why she's often late to few shots, and hence the point to her opponent. This, doesn't mean she gives up.
    You can also watch PVS's matches against RI few years ago, you'll "derive" the same.

    Now if only Liu/Zhang can repeat their junior's feat, that would be great!

    I freakin knew it that he's gonna flick it :D

    bad luck goh/tan, this match reminds me of their all england match last year in qf.

    I put my money on li/liu to get to the final, and possibly takes the title too.

    I hope I could see Zhang Nan reached as high as rank #1 though, even for a week. Is it too much to ask? :D

    What about in Europe? Is there any country that can compete with Denmark in the European badminton?

    I remembered back in mid-to-late 2000s when Germany had players like Marc Zwiebler, Juliane Schenk, Petra Overzier, Xu Huaiwen, Birgit Michels. From this, I would predict Germany will produce young players that can dominate the rankings and compete with the Danes. But I was wrong. Turns out that there's only one German player inside the top 100 and the WS players are inconsistent and need a better coach.

    So what do you think?

    Only time would tell. There are a lot of Danish coaches all over Europe now, it might happen.

    I think these top WS gurls CM/TTY/PVS/NO/AY/CYF get beaten by each other only rest others just stand no chance against these Toppies.

    What an exciting WS QF lineup awaits us. All the top contenders right in the mix!

    Having said that, I feel SN has gifted the title to TTY today
