@@Miraie93 Young Lin Dan was maybe just as fast and explosive as Lee Chong Wei but since winning everything worth winning he changed his playstyle to prolong his career. LCW is also amazing for keeping up with his famous playstyle up until he was forced to retire. LCW still dove and got low for defensive shots.
@@yashitkumar16 his steps are heavier than LD which translates that it isn't smoother, but its not to say LCW isnt smooth. I just feel his steps are a bit heavy, hence why he's had many more leg injuries than LD. Some other really smooth ones would be LHI and Kenichi Tago.
Lin Dan has this steady and smooth footwork, going with the flow of the pace of his opponents LCW likes hop alot, resulting faster speed when moving along, I would say he is steady too
badminton warm up looks just like a normal game. tennis warm up = hit from base line, hit cross court backhand/forehand, hit volleys, hit overheads, serves.
I really really enjoy your contents! I am a korean RU-vidR BEGGINNER. I ask permission for you to let me edit it and re-upload. Of course, there will be reference! If you have any interest in my contens, I gladly share them! THX If you have trouble using the video, I'll delete it right away.😭😊
LD made a big mistake signing up the contract with YONEX. A player like him would never play US Open with all unseated players. Just look at his body language, no interest to play and just hanging in there. It's not fun to see your favorite player not enjoying his game..
Shashwat Das if you look up other videos of Lin Dan warming up or just sparring in other tournaments it looks the same. I don't think Yonex has anything to do with it...
I don't believe he flew 12 hours because he didn't want to play, especially when he is signed up for the Malaysia Open next week. He just expected to waltz through and collect a check. I saw the match. He was playing, although rather half-heartedly, and slower and much less aggressive than Lee Dong Keun. I think he figured it would be an easy 5 matches and he'd win the tournament (probably without dropping a game), collect a paycheck, and get in a nice tuneup for the much more important MO. And why wouldn't he think that? It is reasonable. LDK has never gotten more than 16 points off LD in 9 previous matches. I am sure he shocked LD because he came ready to play, and was the aggressor. You could see in the 2nd game especially LD was trying to turn the match around, but he just couldn't. He tied things up at 11-11. It could have gone either way at that point. But then LDK took control and pulled away. He surprised LD by pouncing on a loose return net shot, then absolutely fooled LD on a flicker, leaving him stranded. That was just too much humiliation for LD to bear. He knew he couldn't win, and just gave up. The "injury" was BS. Bet that "injury" won't stop him from playing in the MO next week. I think you gotta give LDK his due. Yeah, he caught LD on a bad night, but still: he came prepared and determined, dictated the pace from the beginning, never let up, refused to be intimidated, and it paid off.
Nam Doan i believe that lindan requested to join the us open because he wants to enjoy the states with his family hence his withdrawal using ‘injury’ as an excuse.He never would have signed up for us open if he actually wanted to win the tournament since us open so insignificant to a player of his caliber
Shashwat Das Are you stupid? This is just practice. And have you ever thought about all those people in US who idolise Lin Dan and wait every year to watch him live?
lmao no one looks that good when they're warming up because they're literally not trying. you don't want to overexert yourself and risk injury for a warm up.
doesn't look that good hah hah. there is no wasted movement if you look closely. every movement is made with purpose. if you compare his form to mine or yours, ours would look like complete crap
