Yes, gradual improvement, now he has a month to get back into shape. There's no time to waste next year, only four months left of competitions one after another to play catch up. Can be stressful, a test of his will and determination.
2nd seed SatwikChirag lost to 2018 WJC Di/Wang in two games. The Chinese pair had more control on the match and most of the rallies. Seems like all China MD final on the cards unless Choi/Seo has other plans.
Yeah. They were not as fast as the Chinese pair this time and did not get many opportunities for Rankireddy to attack.
just because umpire was not doing his job.... once again match decided by incompetence in this case not giving fault receiver lots of times
Besides Ajay was 11-3 in the 3rd game. How come one lose it if you are 8 points ahead. Only indian players will lose. It happened to Srikanth many times before. And also it became contagious now.
Where's the umpire from? In S300 and below events, there are only a few foreign officials, most of them are from the host country. Is Ct 1 telecast on TV as I only watched it on livestream, so really can't tell what you claimed, and only happened to Zhao, not Ajay? Why didn't Ajay complained?
but it is a bit tricky when you loose belief in your service and you do not know what to do. that really got under him...
An Se Young lost to her teammate Kim Ga Eun again, in straight sets. Well, ASY is still very young, ample room for improvement but already pretty good at her current level, that's the scary part; obviously, she needs to gain more experience which she'll get as time goes by barring unforeseen circumstances. The good thing is she's starting to beat her senior, Sung Ji Hyun, who is very familiar with her game.
18-year-old Phittayaporn Chaiwan, after disposing of Pornpawee Chochuwong yesterday, now gets rid of another colleague, Porntip Buraprasertsuk. Yet another young up-and-comer from Thailand ?!
I would have loved to see SWH vs Lakshya Sen, and ASY vs Kim Ga Eun, and Kunlavut vs Sai. No coverage of any of these matches
