Based on his current form, it's clear that Axelsen has indeed declined. Watching these recent matches, you can feel that his opponents are putting pressure on him, but the error rate is still too high. To beat Axelsen, first, you need a good front-court game to create solid attacking opportunities. You also need strong attacking and great follow up, as you can’t rely on a single shot to break his defense; you should constantly putting pressure on him. Moreover, your error rate must be at least lower than his.
He wasn’t at his best but still able to win this 750, what a man!, apart from matching/better his front court play, his defence is so good it’s hard finish him off with one single shot, you’ve got to hit him with combinations to put him down, a daunting task.
@@supersmartguy LD has 3 more world championships, and 4 more all englands. However I think Axelsen can overtake him if he wins a few more all englands and world champs and another Olympic gold.

Axelsen barely trained for weeks, battling injuries. If he gets to train hard and play for a few months without injuries he will be top level again
I believe with current form, Shi Yu Qi will beat Axelsen in two sets.

He will ramp back up when it matters. These tourneys don't matter much right now. Periodization.
I don't think he declined. Just like TTY, it is just people start knowing how to beat him.
Axelsen cementing his eternal ÜBER-G.O.A.T. status!
Definitely a GOAT, but not quite at LD's status yet
@gone117-r8g What does Axelsen need to achieve to reach LD's status?
