For Men's Singles, Personally i would want to see Peter to win. I don't know about LCW consistency but i give him 50/50. Taufik have higher chances than Lin Dan i suppose.

Wow! Although Peter no longer possesses the form that he once had, he is still a favorite for many fans. Taufik seems to be as popular too with his skils and techniques. I think Lin Dan would have more fans than these two if only he wasn't so arrogant.

Xia has bad form recently with the reason he might know himself

Agree with you! LCW can hardly win coz his skill is still not as good as LinDan & Taufik. Hope Taufik can win coz I am a big fan of him. but am sure Lin Dan will give him a good fight if they meet at final.

Men double : My favorite is Sigit & Wijaya, they are veteran !!!

BTW, do you know usually when (US time) the tournament will be carried out?

Lindan only failed at the olympics, that's all. 2004 he beat Peter to win AE. 2005 he probably let Chen Hong won it (if you've read some of the other threads). The last WC was in 2003, and Lindan is much better now so there is no fair comparison.

From the Malasian open final and the Asian vs. Europe matches, Lin Dan seemed very much on form. LCW just over-performed lol. And even if he didn't play his hardest against Bjeorn and Bosen, his game was very smooth and fast.

Can Lin Dan perform up to the mark? I hated the way he lost the 3rd game against LCW. At this level, you don't give opponents 7 points in a row from 8-9 to 15-9.

Some forummers measure against AE, which I think is inaccurate. All players get a chance every year to win AE, and qualification restrictions don't apply such as for Olympics/World Championships.

Anyway, I hope to see LinDan & Taufik meet in the final, coz I have never seen
their head to head match.

God knows, there is a surprise that Lee Chung Wei will be in the final against either one of them. If he is with Taufit, I really don't know who should I support....:confused:

Yup, you may dream, but your dream maybe rather unrelistic, don't you ?
Principally I agree with you, but technically I doubt this winner list will be materialized.

I only have hope in the MS, if Lee Chong Wei can perform even better than My'sia Open, leading him to the final.His " not giving up " spirit is fabulous !!!:D
but skill wise if far beyond LinDan & Taufik.

Our My'sia MD hopefully can go in semi- final !

As I see it Taufik and Lin Dan are very different in gameplay and style. Both plays an attacking minded game, but where Taufik uses his superb technical skills with close net shots and power smashes, Lin Dan forces his opponent to run around on court and finish them off with speed and smashes. Lin is faster and has more stamina than Taufik, but Taufik has an edge in technical skill. I Would rate Hafiz as a player near Taufik, both very inconsistent and with superior strokes. Gade is more similar to Lin Dan, but with age has lost a little speed, Gade on the other side has in my opinion almost the same technical skills as Taufik. Heres my list on the 8 seeded players technic, skills, stamina and mental str.... Of course everybody has good stamina also Taufik and Gade even if they are rated 7 and 8, they played 96 minutes. its quite funny that 5-6 out of these 8 suffers from lack of mental str which has been seen on big events as the WC, TC and Olympics

Skills. speed. Stamina. Mental strengh

but we're really straying from discussion.

he hasnt done THAT poorly out of malaysia... Singapore Open 04 Finals, Where his lack of fitness let him down... He performed well in the sudirman cup... and Singapore Open 05 was dissapointing... But i believe that he is on the rise... and that with proper attitude and proper training... he will do well oin the international circuit.

Brave_Turtle
07-22-2005, 09:04 PM
Well...

LCW is good but, I've watched the MO many times and you could clearly see that Lin Dan was far superior in his game.

Lin was controllign almost everything, but failed to keep his nerves and lost to himself.

IMHO, LCW is getting better and better but he is still far from players like Taufik or Lin Dan. I'm sure Lin is dying to get a sweet revenge on LCW next time they play and I don't think the same thing will happen.

For this WC, I really want Taufik or Peter Gade to win. One thing I noticed about Taufik is that he performs alot better when he is an underdog and have to prove something. Peter Gade on the other hand seems to always reach semis but has hard time to get into the finals lately.

I hope the winners(not necesarily the most likely winners) would be:
MS: Lin Dan(45%, Taufik has similar chance as he is not disciplined, less stamina but truly talented)
WS: Xie XingFan(40%, as Zhang Ning is more likely to win),
MD: Cai Yun /Fu HaiFeng(30%, Chandra/Sigit might have bigger chance, and Jonas/Lars have fair chance too)
WD: Yang Wei/Zhang JieWen(50%, Gao Ling need to concentrate on MX)
MX: Zhang Jun/ Gao Ling(40%, Robertson/Gail: need to prove mental strength at critical points in big tournaments)
This is my wish list, with the chance out of all players in the respective pool.
And all of these might be changed when we see the draws.

LCW wants to prove himself in the international circuit and I believe he will. I like his "dont-give-up" attitude in the MO even though he suffered a bruise on his knee against Lin Dan. ;)

As for my favorite players to win the World Championships:

MS: LCW, Lin Dan, Taufik
WS: Zhang Ning, XXF
MD: Cai Yun/Fu Haifeng, Chan Chong Ming/Koo Kien Keat
WD: Gao Ling/Huang Sui, Yang Wei/Zhang Jiewen
MD: Zhang Jun/Gao Ling, Lee Jae-Jin/Lee Hyo-Jung

hehe..:D

my probability is 99.99 %looks more like a curse than a hunch to me.:p and that's actually an evil grin artfully disguised to look like an innocent one!

I'm Chinese but I really hope Peter Gade will win the MS. Taufik and Lin Dan are still young and I feel that Gade deserves to win one seven star tournament before he retires. However unlikely that's going to happen, Peter Gade is my fav!
