    XD pair after winning the finals

    “The audience this year in Paris created a great atmosphere and you can feel that they are really into the game, I really enjoyed playing in this atmosphere,” said Zheng Siwei. “Our performance this time was really good from the beginning of the match.”

    At 18-12 in the third she played a really tight net shot, followed by a disguised cross drop shot for a winner that completely fooled TTY. Morten Frost's comment: You can't help but be impressed by her physical fitness.
    So there you have it: no skills needed, you just have to run a lot and reap the rewards. :D

    Well, at least much higher than XD and WD though in terms of quality and competitiveness.

    With KGJ? I don't fine it interesting enough. With YYS I'm more likely want they back to court. But okay hopefully they will make MD more interesting.

    Yep so agree with you. I think beatable seems easy to beat for me. But in AY case she is really hard to beat I should say.

    I don't quite agree with you. But sorry, in my view AY really know well TTY's game. So much TTY lost by herself trademark. I could say AY was trapping TTY into net play. Doing that AY really need skills and sense. She was really fast too, that require skills too IMO.

    @Cunning Linguist was being a bit sarcastic at commentary. It's one of those things in English humour where you write one thing but mean exactly the opposite... The clue is the :D

    I am already aware. Definitely don't want to get on the wrong side of him or else I will be screwed.

    Not exactly my goal. Guess I'll have to keep it a bit more civil in the future.;)
