Your wrong! I like Lin Dan, I really do, but Lin Dan must be one of the most uncontrolable players ever! Throwing rackets at his opponents, pushing the opponents coach, hitting his own coach, etc. But he has become better and better over the years. And i must say that when he accepted the invitation by Peter Gade and came to Denmark to play against Peter in his last match, he showed that hes very very polite, and has a HUGE respect for Peter. And watching that match live was FANTASTIC!
Ive meet Fischer off court and i can tell you that hes just so polite and is just nice to everyone. I dont think that he shouts of hes opponents when he plays, well atleast his intencions isnt that he want to yell at hes opponents. I know what he says, and really, hes ONLY doing it to cheer up his partner. Anyway, I think you're right about the Chinese WD players. But even if I dont like the way ZYL is, I think she's a great player!
Look at Mogensen's reaction when they win it ... same as Chen Long when he won. They really don't celebrate this victory much. Just shows me what an unimportant, artificially set up season final the WSSF are.
I think they're ok. Most Chinese WD players shout harder and shout more often and I don't consider shouting an issue. The only bad sportsmanship really in badminton in my opinion is Lee Yong Dae (takes forever to get ready), Zhao Yun Lei (shouts before serve, after wining a point, when shots are rolling over tape, etc etc) and Fischer (yelling in the face of his opponents alot) Even then I think it's just habits. These players are great characters off court.
Lee Yong Dae is arrogant (typical since he is Korean :)) and Zhao Yunlei plays dirty (she breaks the shuttle to change it, spread her arms to indiciate out all the time and as you said shout before the shuttle landed) Well that dirty play made her a double Olympic gold medallist. Who knows she was the one who orchestrated and master-minded the Olympic disqualification of Yu Yang, two indonesians and koreans so she could win the second gold :)
China cannot produce world class men doubles champions. Cai Yun is a rare case and Fu Haifeng is one in a billion Chinese people who has the power play. Is that the best China could afford to do in men's doubles ? None of the other pairs have standards.
I quite agree with them being good characters off court. But i've seen a few games with the danish pair, and they're just so damn obnoxious on court, especially mathias boe. indeed i don't know these players personally, but I don't like how they're making the game look.
not sure about the chinese WS players, but the chinese WD players aren't exactly "clean" players either *coughcoughZYLcoughcough* If this kind of behavior is encouraged and "absolutely normal" then the sport of badminton is heading off to a bad image. Also, nice personal attack, I am indeed a very very poor bad looser.
i love danish pair's screaming and shouting, very good sportmanship.

Did boe change his racket?
WOW

Pime example after the 1:25:55 point, hate taunting.

Not really, if you look closely: after CAI/FU, LIU Cheng/ZHANG Nan were 2017 World Champions, and LI Junhui/LIU Yuchen were 2018 World Champions.

keyboard warriors, do something good in life first before judging others, okay?
