Chen Long crushes Wang Zhengming in Men?s Singles round-of-16 at Yonex Denmark Open 2012
China?s young and aggressive shuttler Chen Long easily advanced into Men?s Singles quarter-final after putting up strong show against his team-mate Wang Zhengming in round-of-16 clash at the Yonex Denmark Open 2012 on Thursday, October 18, in Denmark.
The World Number Three Long, who has been placed at number two in Men?s Singles draw in the tournament, unleashed his impressive shots from the opening points and won the battle in a dominating fashion without losing any set.
Long was in remarkable form on court while playing against his lower ranked compatriot and after just a little wobble in starting set he did not find any considerable trouble and won the match in straight sets in 40 minutes.
In the meanwhile, the un-seeded Zhengming failed to play positive badminton as he could not put up strong show in front of his aggressive team-mate and remained unable to cope up with the pace of rallies.
Zhengming stayed behind his rival throughout the contest and crashed out without snatching any set from his opponent.
In the first game, both Chinese players showed a spectacular performance to the local crowd by playing attacking badminton.
The cracking sounds of strokes could not heard anywhere in the huge indoor arena at Odense as both players employed powerful smashes and strong pushes but remained close until the break.
After the mid-game interval, Long injected more power into his smashes and also started to employ deceptive shots from front court and rear-court areas.
Long remained positive and aggressive in the whole second half of opening game and won it with a close margin of 21-19.
It was a smooth sail for Long in the second game as he played with complete control and moved his rival in all corners of the court which helped him to take a good lead in opening half.
In the concluding phase, the in-form Long continued playing impressive badminton and easily ended up the set with a 21-14 score on the board.
The lofty Long won this pre-quarter-final battle in straight games of 40 minutes with a reasonable margin of 21-19 and 21-14.
