Sai has been in form but to reach the semis was always unlikely and Sindhu is a big tournament player but to beat Tzu was going to be tough ..... her third world championship medal really hope she can make it gold strength does not come from physical capacity but from an indomitable will. - Gandhi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yesterday Sai really exploit the weak part of Jonatan and with Jonatan having slight injury during the end of game 1, the result is clear. But Sindhu is really amazing. I think Kim Ji-hyun's guidance is starting to bear fruit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She needed someone to fine tune her skills n now she is getting it. Sai needs to move quickly to top. Tokyo - 2020 Go India Go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

up and down 82 Posted August 24, 2019 #27 Share Posted August 24, 2019 "I would not be surprised that if it's going to very close 18 all or 19 all the chinese would call the doctor on court" - morten Well the commentator Morten Frost said this. it has become too obvious. Every time whenever Chinese WD play and it reaches the point 18 or point 19 Chinese WD need to call for doctor help. This has happened all the time involving various different Chinese WD. I felt that this is really absurd. Thought I was the only one who realized this. In the end the commentators of the match mentioned it as well. Oh well crap. So Chinese players need to resort to dirty tactics to slow down opponents rhythm to win the match? Anyway here is the summary. Not sure what he meant by this .. Does it imply clean or dirty tactics?This is because Chinese WD (Chen Qingchen / Jia Yifan and Du Yue / Li Yinhui) had to call for medicals near the end of their matches yesterday. Du Yue / Li Yinhui one is damn obvious especially in the third set whereby after every point she had to ask to be massage and taking a long break. Gosh how come this kind of things can be allowed during tournament time? Speechless. Chinese players have bring cheating into the match into another new level. I really have to salute them. Breaking their opponents rhythm. Time wastage. Asking for break after each and every point scored. Amazing. I just wonder why umpires let those Chinese players carry on with such dirty tactics and no action taken? No wonder Chinese players are so daring to keep on doing it. Such dirty tactics used to win is so unethical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opruh 129 Posted August 24, 2019 Author #28 Share Posted August 24, 2019 It will be a total domination for the Japanese team in next year's olympics, I predict at least 3 gold medals for them. Top Indonesian pair in MD and Chinese pair in XD should get to keep one each for their respective countries. up and down 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Japanese players have shown such dominance throughout the whole year of 2018 amd 2019. So sad ? to know that China dominance has gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
up and down 82 Posted August 25, 2019 #30 Share Posted August 25, 2019 Thankful that Japanese system is I'm such a manner that they cannot develop their mixed doubles department hence Japan look weak in their mixed doubles department. I just cannot imagine what will happen if Japanese also dominate XD department? 5 gold medals by Japanese? This really looks unthinkable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
