Also, you won't find many players under 185 centimeters in simple, and in my opinion that is a bit telling, except if by "being tall" you mean 195-++cm, in which case those players are rare because of the body speed required to perform at this level. ??? Maybe I am misunderstanding you but of the top players in this tournament only Chen Long is taller than 185cm. Well I admit I didn't verify, but looking at the players in action I was quite sure they were taller than me and I am 180 cm tall ; I was also pretty sure they were all at 185, Chen Long looking 193 or so ; this may be just my impression. At least I am quite sure you won't find many players under 180, which is the upper born for the average male size iirc, so top players should be considered tall by normal criteria, maybe not by sportive criteria.
Well, of the top 8 in the men's singles 5 are shorter than 180 cm so I would say your impression was a little off. I'll admit though they seem taller because the court looks so small when they move as well as they do.

I really hope he gets the gold this time. So heartbreaking to see him lose every single time to Lin Dan.

This is it for him, I really hope he turns on the heat when he (presumably) plays Lin Dan, he's been beating himself with all the pressure hes put himself under.
