Set 3 was very bad, the Indonesians did not seem to have the will to win, really below their best performance. What happened?
Fu Haifeng is always humble and realistic, rare to see him being interviewed post-match. Zhang Nan is equally reserved and shy before the camera, I suspect he excused himself to prepare for his next match, leaving the uncomfortable Fu HF alone.
Maybe something wrong with Ahsan/Setiawan in the 3rd set? Anybody heard anything, they don't look quite themselves, to me.
Ponsana is a very experienced, clever and thinking player, he knows how to adjust his game and come out with a 'solution' on court by himself. Tian HW got to be proactive and play accurately and at the same time watch out for Ponsana's deceptive shots.
Maybe the INA MD A/S are still a bit tired so soon after their AG triumph, one defeat doesn't mean much and the CHN pair knows it.
Tian HW wins against Ponsana.. It was not that exciting game. both resorting to long walks in btn each points, and so short rallies..
Yes! Damn, I loved watching that. THW has a lot of potential, seriously. I think I have to add him to my favourite MS players.
