Some interesting matches in MD ROUND 1/16:
Choong Tan Fook/Lee Wan Wah vs Xu Chen/Sun Junjie

Jung Jae Sung/Lee Yong Dae vs Sudket Prapakamol/Phattapol Ngernsrisuk (MATCH OF THE ROUND) -- the Korean no 1 pair vs the Thai no 1 pair...expect an explosive encounter.

Hoon Thien How/Tan Boon Heong vs Chew Choon Eng/Hong Chien Hun -- the youngsters Hoon/Tan could yet again enter the quarter-final.

Albertus Susanto Njoto/Yohan Wiratama Hadikusomo vs Gan Teik Chai/Abdul Latif/Mohd Zakry

Hwang Ji Man/Jung Tae Kuk vs Fu Haifeng/Cai Yun

-- by the end of today, Malaysians can have at least 3 pairs in the quarter-final. The numbers could swell to 5 or 6 if the other pairs make it too.

XD ROUND 1/16
Sun Junjie/Tian Qing lost to Anggun Nugroho/Vita Marissa 17-21, 22-24 -- phew.. a close match and Team Indonesia has 1 (perhaps the only one) representative in the QF tomorrow. They will face Lee Jae Jin/Lee Hyo Jung tomorrow.

Selected results in the WS ROUND 1/32 (no scores posted)
Zhang Ning bt Hwang Hye Youn

Nicole Grether lost to Adrianti Firdasari -- a good result for the Indo player. However, her next opponent is Zhang Ning

Wang Chen bt Petya Nedeltcheva

Norsyahliza Baharum lost to Tine Rasmussen

Jiang Yanjiao bt Salakjit Ponsana

Peter Gade vs Poompat Sapkulchananart

Chen Jin vs Andrew Smith

Roman Spitko vs Arvind Bhat

Ng Wei vs Lee Hyun Il (MATCH OF THE ROUND) -- the Korean has an edge

Boonsak Ponsana vs Chen Hong (close candidate for match of the round)

Eric Pang vs Lee Chong Wei -- a tricky test, but manageable for the defending champion.

A tough three setter win by LCW against Anup Sridhar.....read from The Star today, he is feeling lethargic and cannot find the fire yet ?????

What happened to KBH? Time for him to quit the sport?? or BAM need to drop him if his poor performance continues?

Hope LCW can fire up in the next round.

I heard that KBH got knee injury.

I heard that KBH got knee injury.

I hope too for LCW as Chen Hong will be waiting next for him....

I feel that the Danes do not look good. KJ out, and Gade struggled in 3 sets.

Snippet of article from The Star 15 June 2006

“If I play like this, I am not going to win the Malaysian Open title for the third time here,” lamented Chong Wei.

“I just could not find the fire in me. I felt lethargic and jaded. I have not taken the trouble to find out on who my next opponent is. I think, I am still finding it hard to raise my game after being criticised for my performances at the Thomas Cup Finals.”

In the Finals last month, Chong Wei failed to live up to the expectations against Peter Gade-Christensen of Denmark. His defeat saw Malaysia eventually losing 2-3 to the Danes in the semi-finals.

He tried to gain some confidence in the Indonesian Open but suffered another blow when he went down to Chen Ju of China in the third round.

“My confidence level is low now and it is affecting my game. If I continue with my poor showing, I am not going for next week's Taiwan Open. It is better to stay at home,” he said. “But I am not giving up yet. I will try to gain that confidence here.”

yeah....read that KBH is having injury and is going for x-ray

Its a good time for KBH to take some time off....recharge his energies.

second round is now on it's way in Kuching..........
Waiting for more update from all of them in the stadium.

What to do.. still low tech. But there is many people watching compare to SO.

Are you there ants? You will be our reporter then. :D

Go Chong Wei Go!

Would not be surprised if he wins this MO now.;)
