Im my opinion this is the best classic match i ever watched

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

During this era, my favourite player was Yang Yang!

Denmark always has a great-fine Men Singles. Such like Svend Pri, Morten Frost, Poul Erik Hoyer-Larsen, Peter Rasmussen, Peter Gade, Jan O Jorgensen, and now Viktor Axelsen and Anders Antonsen.

Zhao was my favourite player as a schoolboy and still is . The most elegant player on court and what wristwork. On his day, nobody could touch him , not even the great Frost or Yang Yang.

The great Ardy Wiranata said the same thing after being whitewashed by Zhao Jianhua in the 1992 Singapore Open.

Thanks for uploading this game ..This match of Morten Frost reminded me of the All England championship which Prakash won in 1980 who was coached and played along with Morten in Denmark .

Wow. Memorabilia. Wor Derek commentating. I still remember the old scoring system. Got back into badminton in February 2017. So much has changed.

Zhao JianHua is one of the most talented players --amazing skills

zhao jianhua salah satu idolaku!!! hebat! sama persis Lindan!

Elegant, graceful and magnificent is Zhao Jianhua!

badminton was so elegant compare to now

Both are elegant and talented players.

ZJH no doubt the most elegant player I've seen

Morten Frost is also known as Mr badminton..classy elegant and graceful footwork

Zhao moves around the court like a player of current times, shame his frequent health issues took a heavy toll on him and he had to quit the game when he was still quite young

during those days I would sit up the whole afternoon seeing the good show put up by all the great badminton players

It was the first time Zhao played the AE at age below 20, and won the championship.

Zhao Jinhua has been an influential badminton player whose game style has been adopted by modern greats Bao Chunlai and Lin Dan.

Great video. Elegancy is the word for the style of these two players. I also missed Yang Yang. Videos of his play are mostly fuzzy and unclear

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.

Frankly some of Zhao Jianhua's moves are just breathtaking to watch ... too bad he frequently lapse into lower energy levels and let big advantages slip by ... but when he's in the on position, its really amazing fireworks on display ...

@AgentJ2007

7 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.

In the earlier times players don't use to shout after they won the rally that was the best part

Frost is the most elegant badminton player ever seen so far , Zhao Jianhua was the most skillful and powerful player in 1980s. Back to 1970s, it was Lim siew king who was the best badminton player . They are all great Champions.

zhao jianhoa was one of the best. every indonesian feared him. he just wasnt playing enough post 1990.

That low tension string sound....ouch Wonderfull fotwork from zhao

great match

Zhao Joan his..is the greatest badminton player!!!!!

This game has been beautiful ever since 1985

Of course Frost would battle to the last point. We've all won games from seemingly hopeless positions, and as World and All England champion Frost has oodles of mental fortitude.

Is it just me or is the picture stretched? Looks like the 4:3 TV recording has been encoded in 16:9

hey do you have all england final 1986 when morten frost vs misbun sidek, i would really love to watch those
