    Is this their first world tour title?
    Mr.Anders could not control his emotions as well as his 'hands'. Lol
    He is hugging everybody on the way.
    He even forcefully hugged his partner on the winner's podium. Kim was smiling all the way for his partner's actions.

    Congratulations to astrup/Rasmussen!

    Both of them posing with the flower garland around their head, they look like they came out from a greek mythology (minus the clothing). LOL! I digress

    A contrast fashion by the underdog Chinese pair when they met Gideon/Sukamuljo yesterday. Nervousness hampers Han/Zhou to finish the tournament on high note. Overall, Danish combination play better, the left-hander Kim Astrup performs well at front area. A surprising winner of five finals, no one could predict that the 8th seed will get top prize, Astrup/Rasmussen are extremely happy to celebrate their victory. In the cruel competition of Japanese WD, Matsutomo/Takahashi knock out younger teammates Matsumoto/Nagahara comfortably in two quick games, 21-16 / 21-12. The Olympic Champions are more proactive as MatsuNaga commit many errors this time especially second game.

    Five titles are distributed for five countries, INA-CHN-ESP-JPN-DEN. Badminton has developed on right move, next stop KOR Open Super 500, just wondering whether the elites still show up in Seoul after two high level competitions that sapping a lot of energy.

    No pair except Li/Liu would feel nervous or the pressure when they play the minions, everyone else is the underdogs. :D

    I wouldn't say ginting is better than momota, but he definitely match up very well with him.

    Right, too early to say who is definitely better - Momota or Ginting ?

    Well as of this moment, until their next match, ginting is better than momota, if you lose twice in a row to one person, its safe to say hes better than you

    Momota is definitely the more consistent and better player. How can just 1 title puts them on near or equal footing but that gambling issue will always tarnish his image. Momota still leads the H2H 4-3 as well.

    Ginting is the type can get 2 titles per year, so it depends which title he gets. Happened to be ChinaOpen.

    It's safe to say that Ginting gave the best fight against Momota at the moment while the other players had been disheartened even before the battle started.
