For those interested, Frost now is a commentator for BBC and you will hear him talk when watch all England every year. Zhao is still coaching and hosting badminton related event, he is still beast though, saw him play in 2017 still beat a guy 30 years younger than him

@upy0ur53 жыл бұрын
It's the 15 point system so the players have to be smarter with how they spend their energy since 1 game could easily last over an hour whereas a game in the 21 point rally system takes usually 3 games to go over an hour since both players can score no matter who serves. This is why the older matches are so elegant prior to the rule change.

@AgentJ20077 жыл бұрын
Arema00 Yes, it is longer so stamina comes into play a lot. I think 15 point system gives a better indicator of who's the better player because only the player serving gets point. If I'm serving, you would have to win 2 rallies to win a point. First rally to win the service. Second rally to win the point. With the 21 point system, it's faster because it doesn't matter who serves first, both players can win points. But with the 21 point system, luck comes into play a lot more. Just because u beat in 21 doesn't necessary mean u are the better player, u might be just lucky. If you smashed it out, service fault, hit the net, ur opponent is rewarded point.
