Still, Li Xuerui knows how to exploit Wang Yihan's backhand corner. Does Li Xuerui not feel the drift? She seems to know, but unable to adjust and execute her cross court shots right. Majority of her cross court shots went out.
If LXR was holding back (whether she was instructed to do so, or she decided to do so herself), I think that's a bad sign for her. That's not the way to approach a major, particularly one that she's never won. She simply won't have the right mindset. Anyway, we will see next month I suppose.
If I'm hearing GC right, all the tournaments this year in WS discipline have been won by different ladies? Amazing. The world champs is going to be so good. Anyone could take it out this year.
WYH finally got one back after three previous consecutive losses to LXR, and did it in style, resoundingly, and just at the right time in the lead up to the WC.
Wow Indo WD pair have played all Japan pairs so far, and beat them all in straights. That's impressive.
Sorry offtopic Morten Frost on Lee Chong W's defeat It was a very good match between Chong Wei and Chen Long, who has a very strong defence, and the draught made it better for him,” said Frost. “The second game could have gone either way at 20-20 ... and Chong Wei also fought back from 7-11 down to lead 12-11 in the rubber game. “Then, Chen Long got a very good break of seven points ... from then on it was very difficult for Chong Wei. “He did play a very patient and clever game and it was close all the way till the end. Unfortunately, Chen Long was slightly better on that day. “Despite the loss, all is still well and nothing needs to change, although we’ll need slightly better conditions for the attacking players. “It’s better to lose today and not in Jakarta. It’ll be good for Chong Wei to go into the world meet as the underdog ... we’ll see what happens.”
Morten Frost can keep dreaming. LCW will lose to CL and/or LD too easy, all day, no matter what the conditions.
Yes, impressive win by Polii/Maheswari. If they keep playing at that level, they may even have a chance to win the world champs next month.
Let me help you out a bit since you re obviously incapable of not-so-simple research. The LYB formula on deciding the winner of an all China WS match is simple. If it s a Finals match, the one with less ranking points will win.( with a couple of exceptions.) If it s not a Finals match and the next opponent is non-CHN , then the CHN WS with a better record against the non-CHN WS will go through. Never believe those matches are real. With a ratio of at least 6:3 non-CHN WS able to take out CHN WS, CHN WS have lost their insurance cover.
You're obviously incapable of not-so-simple reading between the lines hehe. You should really read my posts over the last year or so, particularly the ones where the usual China fanboys are also posting.
