Eh... why? :confused: :rolleyes:


Make a quick guess ;)

Eh... why? :confused: :rolleyes:
because they are couple

*Cough*

mmm?

Any1 care to explain?

I thought this would be Bao Chunlai's best chance to win his first tournamnet this year with the absence of Lin Dan...:crying:


even if Lin dan did compete.... and BCL beat LD in semis........ BCL might just drop the ball in the final again just like last year.......

cmon LCW! U CAN DO IT! :D

Are you sure? ;) :p

i herad about it before!!!
But don't true a not!!! :D

because they are couple

r u sure? any pics of them? :confused:

oh no............zhangning leads 4-0 to pi in second set :crying:

I thought it would be a close match with Zhang Ning winning in straight sets...11-2!! What is wrong with Pi?

that was fast!!

The Chinese do not want to take chances anymore, having lost interest in MS, MD and XD. Don't blow it in WS!

oh no............zhangning leads 4-0 to pi in second set :crying:

4-3 now............ :D

i herad about it before!!!
But don't true a not!!! :D

trust me ;) .....very true...

LCW is on fire.....really performing now after a poor China Open

r u sure? any pics of them? :confused:

no pic!!!
sorry :o

I thought it would be a close match with Zhang Ning winning in straight sets...11-2!! What is wrong with Pi?


Pi seems to run out of steam easily....I tot she was going to win in the semis in China but just ran out of gas....

even if Lin dan did compete.... and BCL beat LD in semis........ BCL might just drop the ball in the final again just like last year.......

cmon LCW! U CAN DO IT! :D
I doubt that would ever happen...

i herad about it before!!!
But don't true a not!!! :D

Where did you heard that?
I've not seen such news in local dailies. :rolleyes:

no pic!!!
sorry :o


I'll try to get 1 of them together next time if i hav the chance to see them again :D

Where did you heard that?
I've not seen such news in local dailies. :rolleyes:

in sport focus!!!
n some forum in china!!!

Where did you heard that?
I've not seen such news in local dailies. :rolleyes:

dailies don't report these things..... :cool:
they only report those kind of things in the dailies in HK :p

Yang/Zhang raced to a 5-0 lead against Gao/Huang...:crying:

dailies don't report these things..... :cool:
they only report those kind of things in the dailies in HK :p

So, they must have been spotted by "puppies-team" (kau-chai-toi) during last year's HK Open, yeah? :D :D :D

i herad about it before!!!
But don't true a not!!! :D

That's why. It's just the same rumour thing going around.

Btw, Chan - Koo lost in the QF last week in the China Open. Today, they lost in the Semi. According to the "pattern" they may enter the finals in their next tournament :D Just a simple speculation :D

So, they must have been spotted by "puppies-team" (kau-chai-toi) during last year's HK Open, yeah? :D :D :D

wow!!!
the puppies-team also want to spot malaysia player!!!
they seem to be very busy body!!! :D :p

Yang/Zhang raced to a 5-0 lead against Gao/Huang...:crying:

This match should end pretty fast if Li Yongbo wants to keep his best pair fresh to ensure a Chinese victory in tomorrow's final! :rolleyes:

Pi Hongyan (FRA) vs Zhang Ning (CHN) UPDATE?!

So, they must have been spotted by "puppies-team" (kau-chai-toi) during last year's HK Open, yeah? :D :D :D

hehe....i must be the puppies team then :D

I'll try to get 1 of them together next time if i hav the chance to see them again :D

hahaz..thanx! :D

Hadiyanto Luluk/Yulianto Alven (INA) vs Lars Paaske/Jonas Rasmussen (DEN)

Are they started?

Pi Hongyan (FRA) vs Zhang Ning (CHN) UPDATE?!

hongyan lost to zhangning 11-2,11-6 :crying: :eek:

That's why. It's just the same rumour thing going around.

Btw, Chan - Koo lost in the QF last week in the China Open. Today, they lost in the Semi. According to the "pattern" they may enter the finals in their next tournament :D Just a simple speculation :D

Let me add further..
They lost to the Danes in straight sets during their first meeting.
This week, they lost in 3 sets.
So, they should beat the Danes in 3 sets in their next meeting, and following one should be sealed in straight sets for Chan/Koo. :D :D
Well... I might just strike lottery if it turned out to be true... hahaha... :D

Hadiyanto Luluk/Yulianto Alven (INA) vs Lars Paaske/Jonas Rasmussen (DEN)

Are they started?

haven't started ..............
i'm waiting this match too...... ;)

wow!!!

Så bliver det ren dansk finale!

That's why. It's just the same rumour thing going around.

Btw, Chan - Koo lost in the QF last week in the China Open. Today, they lost in the Semi. According to the "pattern" they may enter the finals in their next tournament :D Just a simple speculation :D


Chan-Koo lost in the QF in China coz Chan was down with fever...same thing happened to WCH and also CCE who was due to play in the MD finals....

This match should end pretty fast if Li Yongbo wants to keep his best pair fresh to ensure a Chinese victory in tomorrow's final! :rolleyes:
If that is true, they should put up a better act... 11-2 is waaaayyy too obvious...

They memang that ke-po and irritating one!! :rolleyes:

that's why so many people like n hate them very much :D :p

who r the puppies team???
:confused:
The reporters...

the CCM/KKK & MLH/JE match was pretty close. the BCL & LCW match was even closer. i was sitting at the back of the court taking pictures and all the emotions show very vividly. hopefully some of the pics will show up. i will try upload them.

right now, we are sitting at the stand watching the WD semifinal HS/GL vs. ZJW/YW. HS seems to be still asleep and without her big cannon, GL/HS is struggling. 13/8 in the second game.

The Chinese do not want to take chances anymore, having lost interest in MS, MD and XD. Don't blow it in WS!
It was bad for China in the China Open losing interest in the MD quite early and XD in the F.The Singapore Open is a disaster requiring an explanation. XD shut out by QF and even earlier exit for all 3 MD, then WeiYLZhaoTT lost in Rd 2 and all 5 entrants MS did nothing to show they were ready to play and win. The amazing thing is they lost to unknowns. ChenH and Bao played their usual erratic games - Chen has a habit of losing badly in the 2nd set after losing a close 1st set - the remember the 2 AE F he lost to Gopi and Hafiz when he should have won? Bao as usual is unable to close out final points in major tournaments - I thought he had put that behind him. Looks like the Chinese players over-trained for the TC and O and peaked too early. Before the O, LD had lost his winning streak and I was not surprised at his exit to Susillo. Once he went the others lost confidence - classical Ch team behaviour. They now have a hangover and they are paying for a slack period after the O.

They Took It!! Kkk And Wpt!!! 11 - 15, 15 - 11 , 15 - 13!!!

And Hafiz is climbing up slowly but surely!! 3- 7!!!

4 - 7 to hafiz now!!

4 - 7 to hafiz now!!
Now 10-4 to the daNISH!

Hafiz 8 - 11 Kenneth

11 - 13!!!!

Man This is nerve racking

arggghhhhhhhhhhh

hafiz lost...

HAI~ There goes hashim.

ANyways the score was funny. Whoever won won at a score of 15 - 11!!

11 - 13!!!!

Man This is nerve rackingYYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSS SS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Kenneth WON 15-11 11-15 15-11... Kenneth du er den BEDSTE!
:D :D :D :p :p :p

Good value for money for these matches for thos watching live.

Looks like some of the Chinese haven't got over the Olympics. I wonder how much rest they actually got.? :confused:

nice to hear kenneth had won.

YYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!
Kenneth WON 15-11 11-15 15-11... Kenneth du er den BEDSTE!

and that's OUR bright side, so to say

MAN!!!

JR/LP lost!!! :(

they weren't very in tune today. INA were able to attack and drive better and as a result. they lost.

JR says he will come to cheer with us. so look for the BC banner and look for JR there! :D

*wishing i was there*

maybe. but i prefer JR/LP to win. it was difficult to cheer for DEN as there are more INA crowd. and being the last match, there aren't enough volume/support from the crowd.

maybe.

huh? :confused: :confused:

wad a waste man...

Hendri Suputra and Li YuJia lost to MAS Koo Kien Kiat and Wong Pei Tty 15-8, 11-15, 13-15.

i thought they played quite well, but occasionally failed to win the shots when they could have easily killed it.

but nevertheless, they did pretty well already!

and i thought Li looked rather pretty and energetic in the match!

Both pairs made a lot of mistakes. If they want to go far, both the ladies have to be more steady.
