a little background if ur interested: one of the US players is PONGNAIRAT sattawat, a thai-american player born in the new york area but trained on the west coast. i do not know anything about his partner, "shu". PONGNAIRAT was once ranked 28 in MD and 44 in MS. in case you dont know, there is zero badminton tradition in the US. it has been popularized to a small extent, largely by asian-americans in california. popular american sports are baseball, american football, basketball, ice hockey. most americans have no clue about badminton and are familiar with it only as a backyard lawn sport played once or twice a year by children, and the vast majority wouldnt have ever heard the name lin dan or lee chongwei. this is why you almost never see or hear of american badminton players, there is no depth of up and coming talent like you have all over asia or even in europe or russia, and the few talented players in the US have very limited resources or challenging players to work with. it's not like china where former national and local team coaches abound in every metro area and you'll find talent in every place you might go, even in the countryside
this is a fun match to watch, because the players are having fun while playing fairly seriously, although there are some club-player level errors. also interesting to see lyd impressed into service in the back court
a couple things i observed. @2:06 you see pongnairat's partner jump sideways to the left tramline to attack. does pongnairat stay left-front to cover the net? no. he knows his right-handed partner is not in a good position to take a cross reply, so he retreats cross with the reply and makes an attacking winner. perfect read
then there's what lyd's partner does @6:57 when receiving a lift. instead of explosively moving behind the shuttle, he kinda drifts back slowly-- because you wouldnt want to harsh out your chill-- and replies with a clear(!?) struck from behind his body, which is in front of the service line. this is how he plays when lyd is his partner. in response to another lift @7:03, he does the same thing
the real meaning of america is truth, and anyone who aligns with the truth is a great american, no matter where you were born or what your passport says, but that doesnt mean badminton is good in the USA. if lyd went almost anywhere in asia, even in the most remote place in china, he would not have been paired with a lazy partner like that-- impossible. but apparently for a friend, he's being very generous with his time and talent
lyd’s “lazy partner” is Tony Gunawan. 2x world champ and olympic gold medalist, he is currently 47
LYD's partner is Tony Gunawan, former World No. 1, Olympic and World champion and currently coaching in the US... He did some sessions training both LYD and YYS in 2019. He's also near 50 years of age and it's just an exhibition game, so maybe cut him some slack instead of calling him lazy. You can see during this game LYD and Tony are confident in their defense and are comfortable lifting and being patient, so I don't think lifting on those shots was poor strategy. By the way Pongnairat's partner whom you don't know anything about is Howard Shu, previously ranked 37 in XD.
@@howiedareindeer1289 doesnt matter what your name is or what you did in the past. it only matters what you do now
@@rb-ex lol guy is old already of course his speed is compromised you absolutely don't know what you're talking about. Stop your nonsense.
@@rb-ex if that's ur mindset, then no need to learn from history I guess.
Lee Yong Dae just played casually....still miss his old golden days...he's just so much fun to watch..
TG one of the finest men's doubles players of all time.
Lee Yong Dae & Tony Gunawan are playing leisurely..
Lmao the translation of this comment to english by youtube is absoloutely bonkers
So this is how you translate english into english 😂
For next exhibition match... I wish to see Gunawan partner with Hendra Setiawan🔥🔥🔥

It’d be nice to see badminton’s popularity increase if USA comes into competition
what i liked in this video is the people sitting on the left and right side of the court just watch the you will love them too...
1:19
Jump smashnya Tony masih galak,,👍👍👍
Anything loose or a half court lift, Tony will finish you off. Beautiful angles. If anyone watches his prime days, his smashes are so deceptive.
Finished watching 7:27
badminton as a sport is getting discriminated since college level throughout the US. When it's time for badminton, they always have excuse so the court can be used for other sport instead of badminton even it says badminton time on the schedule. What i mean by they here is the college sport director or some high authority staff.
Yeah. Even at community centers it's like this.
It’s understandable because they hated this sport, no reason to promote it.
USA players against LYD and Tony are Howard Shu and Pongnairat Sattawat
MD gold medal & XD gold medal olympic
47 yr old and still jumping 💪💪💪
WHOM U REFERING ?
@@paopaosenor2445 i think it's tony
LYD play with Idol TG 😊
It would be treat if badminton became more popular in the US
OK
Just FYI, there is no such thing as USA national team.
Sadly, as of 1996 the Olympic Training Center decided badminton is not a priority and kicked everybody out.
tony gunawan smash is still strong man!
who is purple guy in usa national team. he play well too
Anything half court or loose, you can be sure gunawans gonna finish it off.
Badminton in US is not popular as basketball/baseball/football (etc.), so top US badminton players are actually sort of third tier team compared to Asian country teams like china, korea, japan, indo, etc, even worse than UK, france,
Well USA ( asian ) team OPSS HAHAAH
What's wrong lmao. USA is the land of every race
Tony Gunawan from Jakarta?
He moved citizenship, he is now US citizen
Tony is from Surabaya, East Java.
The title is misleading. There is absolutely NO U.S. national team. All 3 players are formerly national champions, but there is no national governing body that sponsors and provides training for individuals in the USA. Everybody is SELF-financed, self-sponsored, self-trained. It's not like Asia or Europe.
全是亚洲人在对决 美国队呢
Why nobody said Michael Phelps and Katie Ledecky are Europeans? Where is US swim team?
US team? Most the them are Chinese/ Korean look.
You don't know much about the US do you?
@@ndkhoa2812 yeah, i know. Just like Malaysia. But mostly are Asian face there.
Why nobody said Michael Phelps and Katie Ledecky are European look? Where is US team?
Check out their national basketball team as well. Surprise!!!
You cannot look American unless you are native American. Everyone else came from overseas or children of overseas people.
USA: not a single Caucasian
Lol
Because they can't endure for longer time like for a 3 game match 1hr 20 minutes with same intensity is unimaginable for them... That's why not only USA ,, Australia, Canada... Everyone takes player of Asian descent
?? Caucasian are not native american also, most of them came from German, irish or england.
USA is a nationality not a race. Different races are born in America.
@@sujataadhikari6059 All those countries you mentioned have a lot of ethnically Asian players as representatives because those players are the best in their respective countries, not because "Asians have better stamina". Race and ethnicity doesn't have anything to do with it, saying that is disrespectful to the hard work of the players. They also live in and are citizens/residents of their respective represented countries. The American players in this video may be of asian ethnicity but they are born and raised and live in the USA, they're American.
@@icedlatt3 genetics plays a part in your physical stature and endurance and that's a scientifically proven fact... So don't give me the "they live there so they are American" shit
US badminton sucks
小朋友水平！
吹牛逼都不用打草稿

maybe do some research before commenting. of these 4 players, 2 are olympic gold medallists and 2 were ranked in the world's top 50.
