ChenYufei is so good.. The closing stages its just obvious that Intanon cannot end the rally and CYF well.., she can go on forever..
Intanon's DTL smashes are so close to the line , accurate, devastating. IR looking fit and her stamina is good. Chen Yufei stretched to the limit, just managed to squeeze out a victory.
Lee Zijia is getting more and more impressive but just not consistent enough yet, I think. He's the player to watch, capable of beating (almost) anyone on his day.
This is so not very true. It is well known that WS is the most competitive discipline out of all 5. Everybody can beat everybody, you can’t tell. Therefore, an MD match where it’s more likely that Setiawan/Ahsan will win is not more interesting than 4 WS matches combined. Although I do think that 4 WS matches are a bit much since it’s not evenly distributed to other discipline, but it’s understandable since they’re all very exiting to watch.
That, and everything is going their way right now (even their mishits creating advantages etc). Also, Tse is playing woeful. Awful decision-making.
After Tang finished the game injured yesterday I did wonder if he would have the strength and stamina to win today. The tactics of trying to win fast were right but I think he was missing energy at the end. Lets see how Ellis/Lang do against Ivan/Soz later Has anybody spotted any smash speeds this tournament? Normally there is something on screen after a big smash.
