I don't quite agree with your point. Axelsen is not such a player like you said. These courts are all in bad situation. I've watched all the games in court 4. No matter how line judge mopped the floor, you can tell it's still slippery for players. That's why there were so many unexpected results came out.
From My Point of View , Axelson Did not Give His Best..... another word .... He Just Playing for the sake of entertaining.... AfterAll , He Hve Won The China Open..... If Axelson Serious , This Taipei Player No Match at All....
