Chen Long is a great guy. Still he must have a very good strategy to deal with Lin Dan for the ultimate goal. True, Chen Long doesn't mind sacrificing a battle or two to win the war, the big trophies.
After tight game 1, it's pretty comfortable win for Wang YH at second game, 21-13. China WS has secured 1 final spot as Yihan will meet either Wang SX or Li XR tomorrow.
I have full confidence she will level it back in G2 and take the decider if fatigue has not got better of her..Doing well in back to back Superseries is very demanding.
It would be quite cool to watch if the CHN and JPN WS switched one place each in this QF to have two matches of CHN v JPN WS instead of both against the compatriots! What sh*tty draws!
Hope this is not a pre decided match I am rooting for...The scoreline is suggesting WSX didn't even tried much...This could be an attempt to give LXR a confidence boost.
Now I am getting more and more suspicious about this match...Will have to wait and see WYH vs LXR to confirm it.
Looking at a routine of points scored... 4 straight pts to WSX...6 or 7 straight pts to LXR..this is looking scripted mates
I really doubt so, it's Oylmpic cycle and WSX's ticket to Rio is not confirmed after missing the previous one. I don't think it's in her interest to do so, probably fatigue in back-to-back tourneys.
