World Championships 2006 Day 4 (21/09)

[Batu Pahat]

choong lee must be sleeping big time!

[DoublesPlayer]

Sony is in trouble, Bao - Sony 11:3

[taufik-ist]

i hope park gives Lin dan a hard time :)

[Jessica]

Seem like BCL wil win easily...

[kwun]

LWW/CTF is not doing well. 3-8 2nd game
neck to neck for CJ/KBH match. 15-15 now on rubber...

[blue_apple]

ya they r like suddenly became so weak...jia you!!!

[Morten]

go Kuan make the malaysian supporters proud by causing the biggest upset so far

[Han]

wow, rexy must be worry now ... Come one Beng Hong

[Batu Pahat]

Bao and Sony looks like a run away win for Bao 12-3

[ye333]

is there anyone who is really watching this game? is he just lucky today or he is really having more fighting spirit?

If it is the latter, MAS should move all MS older than 18 under Li Mao. :cool:

[madbad]

CJ -KBH 16-16. Going down to the wire

[vivian87_cty]

MD indo/mas 11-4

[Bresis]

choong tan fook/lee wan wah seem like a lost cause now....

[taufik-ist]

sony is confused , he doesn't know what to do

[kwun]

Cj / Kbh 17-17....

[Morten]

17-17. Kuan plays very good or CJ is extremely nervous

[shuzzack]

forsure dey gonna lose!!sooo sad lorr..miss ccm/kkk:(

[TKG2609]

hehehe ... i think chen jin still need more expreriences ....

[vivian87_cty]

CJ/KBH 17-17 fight neck-to-neck

[wl2172]

go Kuan make the malaysian supporters proud by causing the biggest upset so far

Biggest upset happened in XD :) , KKK/WPT beat indo seeded 1 pair.

[blue_apple]

i think losing la...

so big gap now...11 points

[madbad]

OOh, CJ 19 KBH 18. 20 unforced errors each. Both must be nervous or the draft is eating them up.

[Batu Pahat]

As usual MD too much hype. Rexy should not have said so much. As Chinese say 'pantang'

[Han]

Beng Hong trailing all the time in game 3 ...

[Sandy]

ok, i just checked in online while waiting for the webstream to load....
There will be a new XD winner this yr...
hmmm, i haven't seen this match(KKK/WPT vs. NW/LN), and don't exactly know what happened, but i wasn't surprised at all with the result(even if it ended in rubber set)..Too bad though. Lilyana can do so much, but if Nova can't control the game, they're toast...:p..IMO, the coaching staff needs to take a look at pairing Lilyana with another male partner; i think they've seen enough already of what Nova can/can't do.. :rolleyes: :p

Agree that Lilyana should paired with another male.
In many event, I see Nova is the weak side, too much easy unforced error from him in end of game.
Just my opinion, alternative player is M. Rizal or Lingga Lie, both players are 1 year younger than Lilyana.

[Jessica]

The MD are sure something wrong...Is really far away..I think they are losing...What happened...It is so shock...

[blue_apple]

r they like giving up or wat??????????????????

[*izzyC*]

Is Li Yongbo watching the CJ/KBH match? I bet his assistant needs to prepare a fire extinguisher to put out the smoke coming out from him :D

[TKG2609]

kbh will lose ...

[vivian87_cty]

KBH gambateh, u can do it

[madbad]

Cj wins 21-18 and avoids a humiliating upset

[TKG2609]

kbh already lost

[Jessica]

I think KBH is going to lose but he really has done a good job...

[wynn000]

KBH lost a-dy and Lee Choong..............

[ye333]

20:18. Seems KBH is losing. CJ is more experienced in getting the key points.

Biggest upset happened in XD :) , KKK/WPT beat indo seeded 1 pair.

[kwun]

Chen Jin beats Kuan Beng Hong 21-18 / 18-21 / 21-18. damn that was close.

[tubby]

CJ won - must have been a really tight game - Did anyone watch it?

[Han]

Fairy tale ended, good fight for Beng Hong, really disaaponited with Tan Fook and Wan Wah, just can't count on them

[Batu Pahat]

KBH lose
CTF/LWW lose

So sad and 'pek chek'

[shuzzack]

kbh lose already...but brave fight showed by him..unlike our md..

[Jessica]

Oh..there are over for the MD...Really dissapointed...

[kwun]

CTF/LWW is way way gone. trailing 19-8 on 2nd set.

[taufik-ist]

markis/hendra is really really on fire.... ) 19:7

[TKG2609]

lindan 3 : 0 park

[vivian87_cty]

KBH lost. 18-21 21-18 18-21

[wynn000]

[TKG2609]

[blue_apple]

[Bresis]

oh no..all the talk about winning the MD...the malaysian camp must be ashamed now! to any1 who is watching the match live..what went wrong with ctf/lww?

[taufik-ist]

Game Over For Ctf/lww 10:21 :)

well Done, Markis/hendra

[**KZ**]

this is bad....CTF/LWW are really disappointing....lost so easily....CTF was makin all the mistakes

[Jessica]

Well...i am going to sleep...My feeling is all mess up now..Really hope to vent some anger but for sure,KBH is coming back...

[taufik-ist]

Taufik Vs Chen Hong Is About To Start

[vivian87_cty]

sad, lost..........

[TKG2609]

i will support lindan/taufik/chen jin

[Inky2000]

So what Dane said about Mas MD was right after all.

[*izzyC*]

again, lww/ctf never showed us any fighting spirit in the second set, giving it away just like that.. anyway congrats M.Kido/H.Setiawan!

[pramilainc]

Time for the show down. Come on Chen Hong, time to deflate Taufik

[**KZ**]

it was like they were just not into the game...it was just like a warm up match...they underestimated the indonesians....adn CTF was making alot of mistakes....rexy must be furious

[tubby]

Bao wins first game 21 - 14

[taufik-ist]

park... cmon... don't lose easily :)

[*izzyC*]

Chen Hong and Taufik is on!! Bao CL won the first set 21-14

[Jessica]

I think there must be some problem???Are they normal when they are playing???

[Batu Pahat]

Eriksen was right. Mas MD should be mor humble and don't talk abt winning even before the tournament start. Very embarassing!

Just like England in football. Always talk they can win World Cup but always fail. Laughing stock!

[Malaysianfan]

so disaapointed!! Thy lost with such a big margin! what the heck!

[emms626]

omg CTF/LWW lost

[taufik-ist]

Time for the show down. Come on Chen Hong, time to deflate Taufik

ha..ha

i know u hate taufik badly :rolleyes:

[Sammy]

Ya KBH done very well

Indeed very well. I think he gave JC a real scare. Keep up the good work KBH

[vivian87_cty]

match of the round btw CH & TH begins

[Malaysianfan]

Eriksen was right. Mas MD should be mor humble and don't talk abt winning even before the tournament start. Very embarassing!

Just like England in football. Always talk they can win World Cup but always fail. Laughing stock!

Well, i think the coaches really shouldn't talk that much!!!!!!!

[wynn000]

now can only depend on LCW

[nwy5633]

haiz..
wat a big disappointed day by day...
hope mas last md will stay on course...
atleast till 2mmorow...
i don't want too many disappointment in 1 day

[taufik-ist]

Eriksen was right. Mas MD should be mor humble and don't talk abt winning even before the tournament start. Very embarassing!

Just like England in football. Always talk they can win World Cup but always fail. Laughing stock!

poor rexy !!!

tommorow mas news papers may bash him :rolleyes:

[**KZ**]

wat was expected failed....wat was unexpected happened...

[taufik-ist]

cmon... sony.... don't give up easily

[Bresis]

bao trailing 1-7 in the 2nd game..wow..is it because of the change in the sides of the court? or sony has found his rhythm?

[vivian87_cty]

MS TH/CH 3-1 their campaign started

[*izzyC*]

wow, Sony is breezing ahead 7-1.. cmon Chen Hong!! I know you still have it in you to beat Taufik!!

[Sammy]

so disaapointed!! Thy lost with such a big margin! what the heck!

A very pathetic performance. They dont deserve to be there. No urgentcy at all and the Indonesian were basically punishing them at will. Time to move on to breed and spend time on other pairs. Wonder what will be Rexy's response.

[Malaysianfan]

I think CTF can retire now!! SO disappointed with him!! Why wouldn't he change?!!

[taufik-ist]

7:1 kuncoro leading, i know you won't disappoint me... give BCL a fight :)

[Batu Pahat]

When will we see a Malaysian World Champion in Badminton?

Sigh!

[terry]

Again LCW will be in pressure... hope he can bring the title back MAS.

[wynn000]

ahhhhhhhhhhh very dissapointed hope

[**KZ**]

LCW will not disappoint us....unlike CTF/LWW....always look so confident but failed under pressure

[Batu Pahat]

Lin Dan and Park closer than i thought

[wynn000]

LCW can win the MS MUST WIN

[Batu Pahat]

Taufik leading Bao 8-4

[*izzyC*]

Bao CL is playing catch up.. jia you!!

[Jessica]

Without CCM/KKK...the Mas MD really can't do it...Hope the last pair will hold tightly...Rexy must be crazy now...

[taufik-ist]

A very pathetic performance. They dont deserve to be there. No urgentcy at all and the Indonesian were basically punishing them at will. Time to move on to breed and spend time on other pairs. Wonder what will be Rexy's response.

i know rexy was to arrogant, he said CTF/LWW wouldn't lose to markis/hendra again in WC 2006

[blue_apple]

n i thought choong tan fook will do a good job before he retire...haihhh

[vivian87_cty]

Ms Th/ch 9-6 ...................

[Jessica]

Who will hafiz playing tomorrow???

[taufik-ist]

aa opik.... cmon .... please your fans :)

[tubby]

Eriksen was right. Mas MD should be mor humble and don't talk abt winning even before the tournament start. Very embarassing!

Just like England in football. Always talk they can win World Cup but always fail. Laughing stock!

Easy now - when you have the players to win it why not bring some positive psychology into it.

Unfortuntely it was another Eriksen (spelt differently I beleive) who couldnt get our would class players to play as a team!

Luckily in badminton i dont have to worry about it as unless something huge changes we will not produce a top quality mens singles player! Maybe in the mixed we have a chance!

[Batu Pahat]

Just realised that Tazari had played earlier in the day. Not sure if has it in hime to play 2 matches.

Wonder why are we sending so many player in XD?

[Jessica]

I think taufik will win...

[*izzyC*]

Lin Dan is not having an easy time, Park SH is no easy meat..

[vivian87_cty]

it's reli a sad day for me & malaysian fans :(

[Sammy]

When will we see a Malaysian World Champion in Badminton?

Sigh!

We will but definately not in CTF/LWW

[Batu Pahat]

Hafiz playing the winner of Lin Dan and Park tomorrow

[Jessica]

But is also can counted a happy day...With the XD..I have never never think before the XD can beat the indo world champion...

[vivian87_cty]

Ms Th/ch 13-8
Sp/ld 16-19

[taufik-ist]

where is 'kemana' ? is she still sleeping ? :)

taufik is playing now... somebody, wake her up :)

[tubby]

Is anyone watching Taufik? I think he will have to be playng pretty well to beat CH.

[DoublesPlayer]

Taufik - Chen: 14 - 8
Lin - Park: 20 - 16
Sony - Bao: 13 - 14 (Sony under pressure)

[kwun]

sometimes i wonder if you Malaysian fans complains too much. but then, having seen history repeat itself over and over again, i can't really blame you guys for complaining.

perhaps the expectation was too high to begin with, we never see fans from other countries like England, Netherlands, Japan complain about their players, probably because the fans don't expect their players to win in the first place.

[*izzyC*]

Bao CL back in the lead, 15-13

[wynn000]

yaya and at least KBH do well and no let me dissapointed again!!

[vivian87_cty]

hope that the last pair of MD can show a convincing performance after this.. now we can only counted on them lo

[DoublesPlayer]

Quite a big gap, I thought it would be closer

Taufik - Chen: 16 - 10

Game is not over yet ...


Is anyone watching Taufik? I think he will have to be playng pretty well to beat CH.

[**KZ**]

what happened to the MD match between M'sia and CHN? it supposed to be on now

[Jessica]

Chen Hong is not very stable now...

[vivian87_cty]

Ms Th/ch 15-10
Sp/ld 0-1

[Batu Pahat]

Who does LCW have a better record against? BCL or Sony? I believe it is BCL

[taufik-ist]

But is also can counted a happy day...With the XD..I have never never think before the XD can beat the indo world champion...

i knew nova/butet wouldn't win the wc, becos their peak was finish in korea and HK open

[Jessica]

Taufik is still fantastic as ever...No wonder he is the World Champion...

[cesc fabrigas]

taufik r monster to chen hong only 1 time beat taufik in many meeting b4

[*izzyC*]

If Mohd Fairuzizuan/Lin WF can beat Guo/Xie today, who are they up against tomorrow?

[vivian87_cty]

Bao going to win... left only 2 points

[taufik-ist]

BCL is now more mature (after winning korean open 2006)... LCW should be carefull

[Han]

I think we just expected too much from our MDs who have yet to deliver so far except with great potential. Realisticlly, on Lee Chong Wei can produce but he has to fight alone against the world, not easy. Indeed a sad day even with the win of XD.

[**KZ**]

Who does LCW have a better record against? BCL or Sony? I believe it is BCL

BCL has nvr beaten LCW in their 6 meetings....against sony....i don't know...but based on current form most probably LCW will win

[tubby]

Lots of errors in the TH/CH game.

11 of CH 14 points have come from TH errors!

But as i'm typing this TH has won the first game 21 - 14

[*izzyC*]

Sony is still not giving up, only 1 point behind

[taufik-ist]

cmon... sony... 1 point more to make it level

[Misty100]

There are mixed fortunes. At least we have an unseeded XD pair scoring an upset against a world number 1. Well, CTF/LWW loses to a pair whom they have lost to before shouldn't come as any surprise, but the way they lost is pathetic. We still have cheers on the Malaysian side when LCW & HH won their respectives matches, and how KBH displayed beyond our expectation... so there is still hope... have faith in our dudes. :)

[Batu Pahat]

If Mohd Fairuzizuan/Lin WF win they will meet Korea No 2 seed or Paaske/Ramusen.

[**KZ**]

hey isn't M'sia vs CHN MD gonna be played now? anythin happened?

[vivian87_cty]

bao win the match

[taufik-ist]

Lots of errors in the TH/CH game.

11 of CH 14 points have come from TH errors!

But as i'm typing this TH has won the first game 21 - 14

so if there were no errors from taufik, the score would be 21:3.. fantastic :D

[kwun]

I think we just expected too much from our MDs who have yet to deliver so far except with great potential. Realisticlly, on Lee Chong Wei can produce but he has to fight alone against the world, not easy. Indeed a sad day even with the win of XD.

look at Fu/Cai, so much potential, but always lose. Chinese fans don't complain as much about them.

[Jessica]

Well...is indeed a big upset when CTF/LWW lose...Actually i really put on a very high hope towards them and i believe that they can at least go to the final..But now,they are really make us dissapointed...

[Sammy]

Without CCM/KKK...the Mas MD really can't do it...Hope the last pair will hold tightly...Rexy must be crazy now...

Actually I was hoping CCM/KKK to make it this year never never CTF/LWW. Since the withdrew of CCM/KKK I know Malaysian MD have to wait another year. CTF/LWW was never the aggresive pair and tend to make a lot of enforce errors. Well, not to worry there are other young potential pairs coming up the rank.

[*izzyC*]

Thanks Batu Pahat.. yes BCL won!!

[Han]

sometimes i wonder if you Malaysian fans complains too much. but then, having seen history repeat itself over and over again, i can't really blame you guys for complaining.

perhaps the expectation was too high to begin with, we never see fans from other countries like England, Netherlands, Japan complain about their players, probably because the fans don't expect their players to win in the first place.

That's because you don't understand the passion we have for badminton and the resources the government have pour in to this sport. :crying:

[Sandy]

hopeless Sony

he got too much injury :sad:
needed changed the coach, please no more "trial and error" method by inexperienced coach in Pelatnas (Joko Supriyanto, Hendrawan) :rolleyes:

[shuzzack]

miss ccm/kkk now:(:(wat is their next tournament after diz?sory, a bit off topic

[Jessica]

BCL will play LCW tomorrow...

[taufik-ist]

Well...is indeed a big upset when CTF/LWW lose...Actually i really put on a very high hope towards them and i believe that they can at least go to the final..But now,they are really make us dissapointed...

the life must go on... i was dissapointed to nova/butet,too :rolleyes:

[Batu Pahat]

Game over. LCW v CH. Looks like if LCW is going to win the World Championship, he will have to go pass the Great Wall of China comprising BCL, CJ and LD. Mammoth task ahead. Hope God and luck is with him. If he can win then he call himself to be a great player and i believe will be one of the greatest achievement in Malaysia badminton history

[vivian87_cty]

hope that LCW tml can continue to maintain his very good record against BCL

[*izzyC*]

look at Fu/Cai, so much potential, but always lose. Chinese fans don't complain as much about them.

well I guess that's because the Chinese team have the likes of Lin Dan/Zhang Ning/the unbeatable wd pairs to cover up for the md losses, so no big deal to them

[DoublesPlayer]

Wow, so CH only killed TH by 3 shots, and the rests are TH unforced errors?

so if there were no errors from taufik, the score would be 21:3.. fantastic :D

[Jessica]

Goodnight..Gonna sleep now...

[Sammy]

look at Fu/Cai, so much potential, but always lose. Chinese fans don't complain as much about them.

May be the Chinese fans were so fedup they dont wanna waste their effort/time to comment/complain about them :D

[Sammy]

Goodnight..Gonna sleep now...


Huh...so early? Got WMC and ZN match coming up later

[roller]

Was XXF using a NS9000?

[*izzyC*]

woo-hoo, Chen Hong in the lead now!10-8 Chen Hong had been pretty confident (or should i say cocky?) in his comments on the draw for this WC... its time he prove to the world he can walk the talk and not just talk the talk (but I doubt he can do it :D )

[vivian87_cty]

why the MD of mas vs china not started yet?

[Batu Pahat]

WMC and ZN , i only hope we don't lose badly. Good enough if the score is respectable. Hoping WD can win but then WPT just played a 3 setter. Not sure if she can 'tahan' or not

[ccskaki]

May be the Chinese fans were so fedup they dont wanna waste their effort/time to comment/complain about them :D

Actually Chinese fans don't complain as much as Malaysian fans because China has many world champions in MANY sports, not just badminton. We Malaysians are only good in badminton. It's the only sport where we can pin our hopes on.

[taufik-ist]

TH... keep fighting.... 8:10 ch lead

[Batu Pahat]

MD of mas vs china start at 7pm spanish time

[taufik-ist]

TH: don't play rubber... u can't play rubber set

[madbad]

By keeping CJ on court for 3 games, KBH has done LCW a huge favour, not just physically but mentally too. I wonder if CJ has doubts creeping into his mind over his performance.

[Misty100]

WMC vs ZN is at 4.30am lah

[Malaysianfan]

Actually Chinese fans don't complain as much as Malaysian fans because China has many world champions in MANY sports, not just badminton. We Malaysians are only good in badminton. It's the only sport where we can pin our hopes on.

Dun forget, we have our world champions in Bowling, lawn bowl and squash too! But those are not included in Olympic game.

[tubby]

Taufik still making too many errors.

17 of CH 27 points have come from TH unforced errors!

[wynn000]

they start 7.00p.m now there is 6.57 p.m.

[taufik-ist]

d4mn... taufik is gonna lose 2nd set :(

[Batu Pahat]

Talking abt Squash there are 3 big tournaments coming up, HK open, Qatar Classic and World Open. If Nicol David can win all 3, she will have a huge lead over her rivals.

[vivian87_cty]

Lin Dan wins 21-16 21-12

[wynn000]

relax taufik can win 1

[*izzyC*]

d4mn... taufik is gonna lose 2nd set :(
not so fast, he is catching up..

[Batu Pahat]

Game over. Lin V Hafiz tomorrow. Anyone know Hafiz record against Lin Dan?

[kwun]

d4mn... taufik is gonna lose 2nd set :(

go Chen Hong!!!!!!!

[vivian87_cty]

yeah, mas MD going to start...

[Batu Pahat]

MD coming up. Our last chance

[madbad]

Last chance for MAS in MD. Match up next.
CH now up 18-15
LD wins easily and rolls on

[Darth Andrianus]

Talking abt Squash there are 3 big tournaments coming up, HK open, Qatar Classic and World Open. If Nicol David can win all 3, she will have a huge lead over her rivals.

Now, now, folks, let's stick to badminton, shall we :)? Chen Hong is really gonna take the second set, I hope TH can fight back in the third one.

[kwun]

Now, now, folks, let's stick to badminton, shall we :)? Chen Hong is really gonna take the second set, I hope TH can fight back in the third one.

win-win situation really, even if CH loses in the end, he managed to pull Taufik to 3 games and burn up more reserve energy.

[Sammy]

Actually Chinese fans don't complain as much as Malaysian fans because China has many world champions in MANY sports, not just badminton. We Malaysians are only good in badminton. It's the only sport where we can pin our hopes on.

True true.... we complain something we are good at and we dont even bother to take note at something we are not good at eg: soccer

[madbad]

CH at 20-18, Taufik attempting a late surge
and CH wins 21-18. Now the test of Taufik's stamina

[kwun]

win-win situation really, even if CH loses in the end, he managed to pull Taufik to 3 games and burn up more reserve energy.

not so quick though. 20-18

[zqloy]

Taufik should play more seriously in 3rd set. No more goofing around if u wanna win.

[kwun]

Chen took 2nd game, 14-21 / 21-18

[vivian87_cty]

TH & CH have to go rubber game lo

[madbad]

Taufik should play more seriously in 3rd set. No more goofing around if u wanna win.

Was he fooling around? Are you watching live?

[taufik-ist]

i hope TH still has 1 tank of gas

[Han]

win-win situation really, even if CH loses in the end, he managed to pull Taufik to 3 games and burn up more reserve energy.

I think Taufik just lost 2nd game intentionally so he can stay in the court longer to get use to the drift for tomorrow showdown or he didn't warmup properly? :D Chen Hong has more to prove and I think Chen will win!

[emms626]

tomorrow.....i have school,but i want to watching

[taufik-ist]

i'm going to sleep... i dont want to see TH lose :(.....

[*izzyC*]

i hope TH still has 1 tank of gas

but will he has any gas left for tomorrow? :D

[zqloy]

Was he fooling around? Are you watching live?
Nope. Heard that he made tons of mistakes, he should reduce it in order to win CH... go Taufik!

[Batu Pahat]

Wonder if China has planned their player's world rankings for MS. Each of their player is in one half the draw. Thus creating the possibility of an all China semi final sweep and forcing all players to go through China if they want to win. Nightmare scenario if all 4 places taken up by China

[kwun]

i'm going to sleep... i can't see TH lose :(.....

losing hope so easily?? 3rd game just started!

[other]

If taufik bothers to move faster, he will win. Chen is playing ok but Taufik is getting winners from the backline while Chen isn't.

anyways back to match

[vivian87_cty]

MD chn/mas 2-3 start game

[kwun]

TH - CH : 4 - 2

Yang/Zhang vs. Saralee/Sathinee about to start. i wonder if Zhang will be in the mood now that CTF lost... ;)

[floorfilla]

:) All the while through the match between TH & CH, the commentators were looking out for TH's backhand smash... And everytime TH does it, they will go "ooohhhhhhh, did you see that?", "that's IT!!!"... They are so funny...:D

[madbad]

Th 5-3 Ch
Mas 6-5 Chn

[taufik-ist]

losing hope so easily?? 3rd game just started!

it's hard for TH to play rubber :rolleyes:... my heart is beating faster :D while watching TH play rubber ;)

[Batu Pahat]

For the sake of badminton, Taufik has to win. Last think i want is to see is China v China

[*izzyC*]

TH - CH : 4 - 2

Yang/Zhang vs. Saralee/Sathinee about to start. i wonder if Zhang will be in the mood now that CTF lost... ;)
and I heard that Zhang JW was injured during yesterday's match

[madbad]

it's hard for TH to play rubber :rolleyes:... my heart is beating faster :D while watching TH play rubber ;)

Well, they're at 5-5 so you might as well stay up to watch the conclusion:p

[Sammy]

but will he has any gas left for tomorrow? :D

He can go to the nearest gas station :D Anyway both players are playing well but I hope TH can win. There are already quite a number of Chinese players going into 2morrow's game. :D

[vivian87_cty]

MD china/ mas 10-9

[other]

haha interesting line call at 5-3 :D

[kwun]

Well, they're at 5-5 so you might as well stay up to watch the conclusion:p

yeah. probably 15mins more. 7-7 now.

can you really fall asleep peacefully without knowing the result?

[*izzyC*]

taufik/CH are really close 5-6 are we seeing a possible upset here?(but Chen Hong is the seeded player afterall)

[vivian87_cty]

yeah, mas make it to 10-10

[madbad]

Xd Chn 5-3 Tha
Th 8-7 Ch
Mas 11-10 Chn

[2cents]

Chen Hong and Taufik are in dog fighting now. 8 all with Chen Hong leading in Smash, Net, and also Unforced Errors

CHen Hong commited too many unforced errors :(

[*izzyC*]

He can go to the nearest gas station :D Anyway both players are playing well but I hope TH can win. There are already quite a number of Chinese players going into 2morrow's game. :D

In fact I think Zheng Bo/Zhao Tingting is the only Chinese that lost today (so far) :eek:

[madbad]

yeah. probably 15mins more. 7-7 now.

can you really fall asleep peacefully without knowing the result?

Taufik-ist, are you there? Hmmm... must have fallen asleep:p

[madbad]

CH defying most of our predictions and showing what he's made of. 10-10 now

CHen Hong commited too many unforced errors :(

TH-CH 11-10. Holy cow! This is turning out to be a thriller. I don't believe i'm skipping dinner for this...

How come Yang/Zhang leads Thai pair 12:4 ??? Since both Yang and Zhang got injured. They said they would go as far as they could, no goal at all because of the injured.

The Thai pair must lost first mentally, that's bad

[jamesd20]

I am rooting for CH, but think TH will win. If CH can just play longer rallies, and be more patient, then he can win though......

[ants]

Too bad LWW/CTF lost to the indonesians. KBH lost..but this time he lose with pride. I think he played his best match.. still a little inexperience in terms of final set games. Pressure. I hope he will do well in the other tourneys.
Kudos to my man KKK and partner WPT after upsetting the world champs.

[Batu Pahat]

We should import players from other countries

Taufik-Chen Hong's match is a slow counting machine which works perfectly now.

[madbad]

On a side note, Tracey Hallam is beating her Thai opponent 21-12, 11-6. The poor Thais must be not be able to concentrate very well at the moment.
