"Five Kills" National Yu player Tao Feike surprised Lin Dan lost to Singapore teenager
In today's 2019 Thailand Badminton Masters men's singles final, Lin Dan lost 19-21, 18-21 to Singapore teenager Luo Jianyou and won a silver medal. In the post-match interview, Luo Jianyou said that he was very happy to be able to defeat Lin Dan, mainly relying on patience.
Singapore teenager Luo Jianyou, born in 1997, started from the qualifying round and did not lose a game. He defeated Sun Feixiang, Liu Haichao, Zhou Zeqi, Zhao Junpeng four national feather men's singles youngsters, and then continued to upset Prince Wei and Liverdes. Enter the finals.
In the finals between Luo Jianyou and Lin Dan, both games were behind by a big score, and the second half reversed to win. This was also the first super300 level event champion in his career. Taufik, one of the "Four Heavenly Kings", was surprised to continuously post on his personal social platform, "Luo Jianyou defeated Lin Dan 21-19, 21-18!" and "Singapore Luo Jianyou defeated five Chinese players!".
In fact, this Luo Jianyou has a little relationship with Taufik, because his current coach is Taufik's former coach Mulio.
Taufik has a very close relationship with Mulio. Those who are familiar with Taufik must know that Taufik withdrew from the Indonesian national team in 2009. At that time, he once said that if Muleo could not be selected as the coach of the Indonesian national team Group, then he refused to enter the Indonesian national team. This shows the depth of Mulio's influence on Taufik.
Mulio briefly coached the Indian national team in the 2017 season and helped players such as Slicante and Plano rise quickly. Later, because of personal family reasons, Mulio joined the Singapore badminton national team at the beginning of the 2018 season.
In just one year, Luo Jianyou was able to make such a big progress, and Mulio is really indispensable.
