A second AE triumphant for Zhang Nan/Zhao Yunlei (2010), Chen Long (2013) and Mathias Boe/Carsten Mogensen (2011) while it's maiden AE title for Carolina Marin and Bao Yixin/Tang Yuanting, congrats to all winners!
Zhang/Zhao was really total commanding in final yesterday, made lop-sided duel as Ahmad/Natsir applied wrong strategy, pretty passive and produced many uncharacteristic errors. Hard for the defending champion to turn the table after trailed so much points behind. Zhang/Zhao was faster, more accurate attacking style combined with solid defense.
Two matches in singles category were very interesting. Marin proves her WC title isn't one hit wonder as she did to create history once again in big event All England, she has stronger stamina and determination after led in second game as deciding game was gone case for Nehwal.
Match of final day certainly is 87 mins MS showdown. Chen Long showed his maturity how to handle under pressure situation. At first game, the World Champion looked more nervous than his Danish rival. Jorgensen played superbly in game 1 with body smash and good attacking skill. Too bad he couldn't keep that style as Chen Long started to up his game and more confidence grew when he led at early stage of game 2. We saw some amazing defense skills from world #1, long rallies drained stamina and it happened to Jorgensen in decider while Chen Long raised his tempo. A little bit drama at match point 20-12 when Jorgensen challenged and he did it successfully to delay final match from finish line, he scored three points more before Chen Long smashed to bag second All England title. It's really entertaining clash!
Huge upset for CHN youngster Bao/Tang to stun formidable senior teammate Wang/Yu. Last match, Fu/Zhang wasn't play so good as they did at previous rounds, Boe/Mogensen was still focus particulary in critical point.
