It seems to me,most of the time Hu Yun is content to keep the shuttle in play and wait for Lin Dan to make unforced errors.
It's no fun watching Lin Dan playing like this, no fire,not much life in him, compared with the Lin Dan I used to see in the past.
Better anticipation of Hu Yun's lightning smashes in G2 by Lin Dan, and Hu Yun making a number of unforced errors to hand the set to Lin Dan for a decider.
Well. He is old. He changes how he play. I do not think he has the power to go smashing like he did all tournament around.
Lin Dan is comparatively more casual and sort of lazy whereas Hu Yun is prepared to scramble everything back and often succeeded in catching Lin Dan off-guard.
Also several times he assumes that just because the opponent is very late to the shuttle it is not coming back, and a number of times he is caught.
Compared to LCW, LD actually adapts pretty well even though his physical ability is obviously declining.
OK, Lin Dan won it (though I still think he could have done it in two sets), but, seriously, he really must step up tomorrow or Viktor will be smashing his way to victory.
P V Sindhu knocked out 3rd seed TZY with 21-12, 21-15 very comfortably. Yes commentator Bobby and chris are right. Her ranking does not reflects her potential. She should be in top 5
argh they put CL-HKV on court 1, but there is no livestream to be found atm. videostream not showing this court anymore... come on :/
As well as the Korean MD match it was on court3. A shame as both matches seemed to great one looking at the score and match time... I think this Korean MX can work out very well... But still ZZ had an off day I believe. But if they can be beaten than rather in earlier rounds than at the finals weekend I believe Im annoyed with some matches on court3 for tomorrow again... Instead all CHN WD on court2 for example. Sometimes I really have to wonder about the court sheduling... Or cover all courts by livestreams. It is 2015!!
