    Kenichi tago is one of the most underrated player

      yes agree, he is one of the japaese prodigies but due to the gambling issue with Kento Momota is the reason why he is forbidden to compete internationally

      He's underrated bcause he is in the same era with LD and LCW.

  • @yamatokai93

    Tago had one of the craziest runs in all England 2010, beating all the Chinese seeded players then losing narrowly to LCW. He definitely put Japan on the map before momota became the next big thing

    really enjoyed watching Tago play in the past, he seems to have a good sense of humor and never truly got angry. He seemed to treat momota like a little brother back then as well.

    It's very efficient. I guess, the only reason why Tago retired early was that his body was not designed for this sports. But he is truly a Champion of the Sports.

      More like he was forced to retire because he got banned from all badminton activities after being caught gambling alongside Momota. Momota got 2 years ban, so he made a return in 2017. Tago got his ban lifted recently, but by then, he has already passed the age where he could compete. He does do some coaching and has a fairly successful UA-cam channel.

    Tago was a badminton genius who had the technicality and strategy of a great champion, he kind of reminds me of a less athletic Taufik. However, he enjoyed his comforts too much and never realized his true potential.

    To be honest, he got very good game IQ

  • @sujaynis3905

    one thing I noticed in his game is that he plays an extremely fast-paced game. I had put the video on 0.25 speed to break-down his footwork and then sped it up to normal pace in the later parts of the video. While watching at a normal pace, it felt like I had sped it up to 1.25x by mistake.

    Nice, thanks ! I will use that cause stamina is my problem and i don't want to change from my double's racket so i may have better drive than my opponent.

    It's unfortunate for him how strict Japan is. He deserved another chance.

      Like everybody else😂 , but he put on a good fight thou. His strokes are nice to watch

    • @dajalapeno8480
      @dajalapeno8480 15 годин тому

      The last 2 couple of games between them were sort of close, i'd say technically he had the skill to beat LD. But his fitness was his downfall to losing most games. Their h2h is 1-3. I wouldn't say "shit on" but LD is the goat tbf so he was expected to win.
      Tago went crazy vs LCW in the indonesian open 2014 though.
