YONEX-SUNRISE HONG KONG Open 2019 : Qualification-FINAL (12-17 November)

If its a fault, then who will dare to take risks at the net..?

Worst is some players put their racket past the net and never gets called. are we going to challenge NO decision as well in future?

Anyway credit to ginting. He really played well with few of the silly mistakes.

lol whole set 2 and 3 he keeps giving free points with failed net shot

 

[tepokbulu]

the hongkong player better lose than win like this

 

[Yoji]

Is not about the money. I think ginting need points to qualify for hsbc final?

It is about money. BWF is wrong. LCY already wins the title.

The least BWF can do is award the same amount of prize money.

Hope this can inspire Hong Kong citizens to stop with the demonstration, and back to focus on sport or other sectors

OK maybe I am so used to him giving free points this one look like a, slight improvement for me.

 

[Cheung]

Is the last match being played? I got a great story

Anyway. Higashino really got to be the best female mixed double player out there. The smashes that she took 99% of the rest would not have handled it. Hht/dy got to be wondering how to win a point.

spare the umpire. he has to made the decision in a split second, without any video assistance. he is human after all. if he is selected for the final game, he must be doing alright this week.

 

[Martynas]

it is not the first time when this umpire makes mistakes, but this time it was at a match point.... BEC/BWF should really care more about right decisions than treating umpires as some theater actors and prioritizing way more show part than actually doing right calls, but anyway very nice intense MS final, both players showed very very great badminton.

Fans has to email BWF about these calls with proof . Hope some indonesian fans will do it. Otherwise, this thing will continue and BWF won't take any action.

Lol they probably have been doing it since hours ago.

I don't know what to say. Imagine if that had happened in WC or even Olympics final match at Gold Medal Point.

 

[lodoss]

what ways are there to ensure there is no wrong decision in future?
installing more video cam which is costly (perhaps the cost is justified for a higher grade tour)? install on how many courts, 1, 2 or all?
having professional umpires (but bear in mind they could make mistake too)?

perhaps there will be less incrimination if it did not happen at match point.

 

[Yoji]

No..

imagine if its LCY that is in Ginting situation and he did this netshot and got faulted and lost the match because of stupid umpire call...,,

Ginting will not come out alive from HK..

So what to do.. Its better that Ginting come back safely...

Kudos to Ginting to never take that winning moment away from LCY.. he could easily challenge/ call the tournament referee. TH will have done that.. VA / AA will have done that.

Hell even I will walk out of the court.

agree, and if it happen to a player or country you are supporting, then of course there will be unhappinesses.
but sometimes sports is like this.
