Jan O Jorgensen outplays Derek Wong in Men’s Singles Group I at London Olympics 2012
Denmark’s talented player Jan O Jorgensen remained successful in reaching into the knockout stage as he easily won his last Group I match in Men’s Singles category when he outplayed Singapore’s Derek Wong at the London Olympics 2012 at Wembley Arena, London,
on Tuesday, July 31.
The World Number 13 Jorgensen, who has been seeded at the 12th position in Men’s Singles main draw in the mega event, showed his tremendous class while playing against his lower ranked Singaporean challenger and easily won the match without facing
any trouble.
The higher ranked Jorgensen was in commanding position throughout the contest as he dictated the pace of rallies in all areas and easily stamped his mark over Derek in a dominating manner by ending up the match in two sets with a big margin.
The lower ranked Derek, on the other hand, displayed a few glimpses of his brilliance in opening set of the match but failed to overpower his rival at any stage and eventually lost to him with a huge difference on score board.
Jorgensen started his campaign against Derek in a relaxed but fast manner as he employed his impressive shots to take an early lead.
However, Derek was also positive and focused in opening rallies and he remained close to his Danish rival.
The 12th seeded Danish shuttler played aggressive badminton at the ending points of opening half and took a reasonable lead until the break.
After the mid-game interval, Jorgensen continued playing elevated game without showing any sign of pressure and eventually won the opening set of this group match with a 21-17 score on the board.
In the following game, Jorgensen was on a different level as he spared no chance for Derek to remain close on score board until the mid-game interval when he was in clear lead.
After the break, the in-form Danish shuttler continued his smooth ride without facing any interruption from Derek and clinched the game with a wonderful difference of 21-14.
The spirited Jorgensen ousted Derek in straight games in commanding fashion with a 21-17 and 21-14 difference on the board.
