Schedule has been released:
http://www.tournamentsoftware.com/sport/matches.aspx?id=13214&day=105564

Looks like Peter Gade has given a walkover to Chen Yu.

whaaat? I'm assuming he needs rest.

WHY!!!!!!!!!!:eek::eek::eek:

Maria Kristin will face Huang Chia Chi of Australia in the first round. This is the second week in a row where Maria benefits from Zhang Ning and other top players pulling out. Maria was scheduled to play in the qualification round of Malaysia and Korea Superseries, but in the end, she went straight to the main round due to her [somewhat] higher ranking... :D So lucky.

If she can defeat Huang Chia Chi, then her road is pretty soft going to the quarterfinals. But we all know Huang is good. I think the match will go to rubber sets. Too close to predict. I can only hope Maria wins...:cool:

WMC is facing the great wall if she manages to beat Kaori Mori. Lu Lan, Jiang Yan Jiao, Xie XingFang. It gets tougher and tougher.

Choong Tan Fook/Lee Wan Wah v Ashley Brehaut/Ali Basuki Sindoro
Fairuzizuan/Lin Woon Fui v Michal Logosz/Robert Mateusiak

Out of so many matches, only 3 can realistically progress ??

I think WPT/KKK can beat the Chinese but KKK might not go all out in XD. I think the Hashims' might win.

What are these??:confused: :confused: Julia has to face Pi Hong Yan in 1st round? Roslin VS Jonnassen??Kuan Beng Hong VS Sony??Lee Tsuen Seng VS Lee hyunnIl??and Chen Hong VS Hafiz AGAIN???...faint...

No need to faint...This will happens more often in the coming tournament.So,lets just wait and watch it.

Looks like Peter Gade has given a walkover to Chen Yu.

Again, if PG gave a walkover to CHN player, it's perfectly ok. If another CHN player gives to his teammate, then we see all the "LYB sucks", "LYB dirty strategy", etc flooding the forum again. :cool:

Well, if you're not good enough then Super Series is not for you, plain and simple :D I like the format and I think most audiences too ... Every Super Series excitment starts from round 1(even the qualification round have interesting matchup.) However, putting 2 Super Series back to to back on consecutive week seems to harsh to players.

yup..agree with u in almost all of your predictions but i'm hoping against hope that the all the malaysians end up as the winner after the 1st round...especially in the men's singles department...im gonna hav to pray harder for them..:) :);)

I agree with you 100%.

Who arrange all the tournaments schedules?

There will be no tournaments at all in February? ???? April and August only had one tournament.

But the toughest ones for players to play are September months, 4 events in a row. (If the players choose to enter all the events)

And of course at November 2007, there will be 3 Super series in one month. How can the IBF expect the top elites players to play in their best condition in tough events three consecutives tournaments in one months?

ooo...I really hope LD wins after the being K.O. in R16 in Malaysia Open :rolleyes: :D hehehe :p :p PG giving CY a walkover, he must very tired ;)

Good to see XXF back after being ill :D :) Golden Couple Go Go Go! :)

Again, if PG gave a walkover to CHN player, it's perfectly ok. If another CHN player gives to his teammate, then we see all the "LYB sucks", "LYB dirty strategy", etc flooding the forum again. :cool:

Bacause PG's walkover before tourney starts...CH went to semifinal before giving WO to BCL....

Bacause PG's walkover before tourney starts...CH went to semifinal before giving WO to BCL....

A WO is a WO, regardless which round. In theory, a WO in later round is more "reasonable", as the guy already worked in many rounds, and more chance to be tired / injuried.

Again, we are not here talking about after how many rounds, this guy should be tired or not. We are talking about the fact that some ppl here just can't take the fact that some CHN players raising the trophy. Somehow, the CHN already got attacked due to their success.

Remember, if we really talking about fair in this sport, we have to say CHN team suffers the most. Remember, how many of their good players can't participate in certain tournaments due to limited entries??? Hey, if XXF or XXZ can't even make the team (Olympics), shouldn't they screaming "unfair" the most? Many times, 2 of their 5 top MS (mostly all in top 10-15 world wide) can only watch others who barely rank in 50s playing. How they (and/or LYB) feel??? :mad: :mad: :mad:

..in this thread (and if i'm not mistaken in another thread, which i forgot, which event also replied):
http://www.badmintoncentral.com/forums/showthread.php?t=34345&page=3 (see post#51 & #52)

i'm not too sure about CTF/LWW progressing so easily.
they have been looking very shaky for the last 3 months or so.
my expectations for them are currently very low.

I can see Lazybuddy's point and I do emphatise with the Chinese team. The responsibility of the coach is so so heavy. Whatever decision you made, someone (management, player or fan) will think it's not the best.
Then as a player, you think you are good but end up sidelined. And when you're chosen, nothing less than being the champion is expected. Anything short of that, you are bombarded.
But as one of the Chinese player said, that is something they have to live with altho' a little encouragement from fans would make their day.

haha my expectations for ctf/lww is lower than low haha

Game just got started, and Nova/Lilyana lost 1st game to German pair ....

Why are they like that, yoyo kind of performance?

wad time is it starting??

oh wad a coincidence abedeng.. i was just asking wad time is the tourney goin to start haha thx 4 the info

KKK & Wong Pei Thy are playing in the mix double event against China's Zhang Jun/ Zhao Ting Ting...and now they have won!! Congratulations!

KKK & WPT have already their match in three sets.

KKK/WPT won against Zhang Jun /Ting Ting....

I think they have to seriously think about KKK stop playing MXD anymore. Since KKK/TBH seems their top MD pair, asking KKK to play MXD would physically drain him, as well as put him under a lot of pressure...

If KKK/WPT goes further in MXD, we will probably see a compromise in his their MD perfomance...

Yeah, they are a pretty good XD pair, even if they hardly ever train XD. In fact Wong Pei Tty was instrumental in the World Championship and Asian Games bronze medal achievement with 2 different partners.

Good thing BAM is now looking at establishing XD department .....

yes they won.they r getting better.best mas xd.hope they get enuf rest esp wpt who is goin 2 play in wd in 6 hours time.go wpt.ceh n kkk/tbh.mas boleh

joanne/shirley just lost
wonder wat happen 2 them in 2nd n 3rd set
just start cathing up after half of 3rd set
btw y joanne play but lim pek sia x play

Julia won the first set against Pi?

I think they have in mind to reduce the costs of the participating players, especially those from other continents. Imagine you (as an European) playing last week in KL and then having to hang around, incurring hotel costs etc, before starting the Korean Open next week.

That is why SS events come in matching pairs: Malaysia-Korea, Singapore-Indonesia, China-Hong Kong, China-Japan, two European pairs.

Edit: OK, China-Japan are seperated by a few weeks, but the others are back-to-back.

Roslin won the first game against Kenneth 21-18 but now trailing 4-11 in the 2nd game.

Officially, there is no difference between the two walkovers. But we practically can make very good guesses as to the differences in intentions of the walkovers. One cannot help feeling that whoever Gade meets in the first round in Korea, he will give a walkover anyway. Whereas if Chen Hong were to meet LCW (instead of BCL) in Malaysia SF, he would have played and played well, too. Of course, I cannot prove any of these, but no one can blame me from feeling this way.

I agree with you about the other thing, the limited entry rule. But these are two very seperate issues. You should not lump them together.

go julia
she's definately improving
3 more points 2 go

Julia Wong beat Pi Honyan in rubber, another upset

Julia Wong bt Pi Hongyan 21-17, 15-21, 21-16

> 1.3 billion ppl against a few million from other countries... how fair is that ?
They should chop China into small small provinces and then ask each one to compete as 1 country..

I'm sure Danish mobs will take it to the streets...
The club Roslin played will be burnt down...
Its coach will be stoned...
And immigration will withdraw Roslin's visa.

Damn..Yeoh Kay bin blew his golden opportunity in the first set!

Too bad Kay Bin lost the close 1 set, 21-23

10-5

hmm..coming back strongly in second set, now 11-5 lead

homesters usually has the edge over opponent.. so relax.. i didn place any paw for that match haha

Upsets of the day (feel free to add to them):
1) Roslin beat Kenneth
2) KKK/WPT beat ZJ/ZTT
3) Julia Wong beat PHY
4) Juliane Schenk beat Yippy

i c..... kasper totally outplayed by kay bin.... wonder if he can get any help from "Casper the Friendly Ghost"... hahahaha

wooow....damn, huge comeback by Yeoh Kay Bin thrashed the Dane 21-8 in the second game! I guess he's fired up after the close loss in the first game

so sad for yippy.... guess she couldn't "YIPPY" after all after the match haha

wooow....damn, huge comeback by Yeoh Kay Bin thrashed the Dane 21-8 in the second game! I guess he's fired up after the close loss in the first game

Zhang Jun acts a bit clueless on courts these days... So I think their defeat some what not surprising... Poor ZTT..

Zhang Jun acts a bit clueless on courts these days... So I think their defeat some what not surprising... Poor ZTT..
Gee, I wonder why Gao Ling "dropped" him...:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :D

probably its not zhang jun's fault.... maybe tingting's errors alot haha

Gee, I wonder why Gao Ling "dropped" him...:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :D
haha must be he done something bad... haha

Gao Ling is still too 'Hot' to waste her time arnd with him...

Oh no... My PSH getting owned, there goes my PAW

Go Kasper... I got PAW$ 11 on him too...

kay bin running out of steam i guess....
trailing 7-12

probably its not zhang jun's fault.... maybe tingting's errors alot haha

From what I noticed during MO, ZTT was constantly frustrated at ZJ.

yea... too hot i guess hahaha... pramilainc go and search the professional players forum for the gao ling's thread.. she's so hot in those pics....

kay bin won the 3rd round 21-14!!

KBH vs SONY.......

when ?

WMC has toilet break lead, 11-7 against Mori.

And Bao seems to own Park Sung Hwan, wonder how Park beat Lin Dan last week.

Mew Choo extends lead to 14-8. Lu Lan leads Hirose 6-2. Bao about to finish off Park.

has there ever been a 21-zip drubbing? Lin ZHU nearly accomplished that today 21-2

Gao Ling is still too 'Hot' to waste her time arnd with him...

Oh no... My PSH getting owned, there goes my PAW

Go Kasper... I got PAW$ 11 on him too...
Oops, that's PAW$16 +11 down the drain...:p

WMC wins lopsided 1st game, 21-9. Bao on matchpoint.

Taufik-ist,

KBH vs Sony about to start!!!

Lu Lan leading Hirose 13-7, hope Hirose can fight back.

Oops, that's PAW$16 +11 down the drain...:p

My High risk - High reward approach ended up being High risk - No reward :(

WMC starts game 2 convincingly, 4-1 lead.

Shon about to qualify for round 2.

Go Beng Hong!!!!

Lee vs Lee also about to start.

-tsuen seng and hyun il

Lu Lan leading Hirose 13-7, hope Hirose can fight back.

Better, otherwise I'd loose PAW$ 13....

Man, I'm getting owned in this PAW thing...

Taufik-ist,

KBH vs Sony about to start!!!

thanks...... too bad you will support KBH :)

Mori fights back, 6-5. Sony starts game, 2-2.

thanks...... too bad you will support KBH :)

Wrong, I support committed never-say-die players .... :) if KBH plays crap, Sony gets my vote ....

Sony pulls away 10-4, closing in on toilet break.

Mori and WMC neck and neck, 8-8.

Sony lead 11-4. KBH no match with him.

Lu Lan beat Hirose 21-16 in 1st game, Hirose fightback came a bit too late.

WMC ups the pace to toilet break, 11-8.

Sony continues further, 13-6. MAS Lee lead KOR Lee 3-1, but for how long?

WMC at 14-9, MAS Lee still with 2-pt gap, 6-4, Hirose starts strongly in 2nd game, 4-1.

WMC cruising away, 15-10. As is Sony, 18-9. MAS Lee extend lead 7-4. Lu Lan moving forward, but still behind 4-5.

Wrong, I support committed never-say-die players .... :) if KBH plays crap, Sony gets my vote ....

btw
sony is leading 16:7.... too far away :)

lee tsuen seng leading 6-4 against lee hyun il
hopefully LTS can mantain his lead for the rest of the game...

for kuan beng hong's game...haihzzz....sony is definitely owning him...
IMO, KBH's confidence has taken a deep plunge...he's performance has been on the decline lately....

Gamepoint Sony. Hirose and MAS Lee maintain 2-pt gap. WMC 4 pts away from victory.

Easy game for Sony. 21-12

WMC 2 pts away now. Hirose still maintain 2-pt lead, MAS Lee still lead by 2 pts.

Miew miew about to win the match.

Haih....why hasn't the coaches given up on Beng Hong yet???!! i wonder? i dont see any potential in him

That's it, Mew Choo wins 21-9, 21-13.

I thought Jiang Yanjiao not playing.

KBH wants to prove a point, 4-1 2nd game. Hirose and MAS Lee take toilet break with 2 and 3 pts lead respectively.

KBH lead on 2nd set. 6-2.

Lu Lan levels, 12-12. I think she can't afford playing 3rd game, lost to Yippie last week.

Haih....why hasn't the coaches given up on Beng Hong yet???!! i wonder? i dont see any potential in him

They don't have any choice. Besides, he can be a good sparing partner to LCW and other players.

MAS Lee still with 3 pt lead, as is Kuan against Sony.

Sony closing in again, 8-9.

Sony retakes lead, from now onwards I don't think Kuan can respond. Hirose and MAS Lee maintain their advantage, but cannot pull away.

Hmm, Hirose might still make it to 3rd game, 19-14. MAS Lee still with 2 pt advantage, 18-16. KBH about to give up, 11-14 down.

Well done Wong MC, a comprehensive victory too.

Come on, Eriko ... Too bad the other two ko's going against Wong/Chin.

lee MAS got the first set.

Hirose forces rubber! MAS Lee takes 1st game, now can his stamina hold? Sony only 3 points away.

Hirose takes the 2nd game 21-15... with a bounce in her step :p
WHOA the unfancied Lee (Tsuen Seng) won the 1st game 21-17 :eek:

Man, Lee TSuen won!! Hope he could get rid of the other Lee in the second set too and take the game!

Beng Hong is alomost done

He's done! Going home tomorrow, BYE!

i like hirose..she's a real fighter...i remember the asian games match between hirose n xie xingfang....she lost the 1st game 21-(something single digit) then fought back in the 2nd game to bring it to deuce n won the 2nd game...she fought really hard in the 3rd game also but luck wasnt on her side, but it was definetly a hard fought match for XXF..
so i hope hirose wins in this match against Lu Lan..

wow LTS managed to win the 1st game..impressive...i think he's better than KBH-who has just lost the game to sony...haihzzz

KBH lost........

Sigh...What a dissapointment from KBH,i really have no more hope in him if he continue going on like this.I am happy enough with julia and roslin performance and i think KKK is able to handle both MD and XD,i just hope that KBH can know what is his problem.

Hirose takes the 2nd game 21-15... with a bounce in her step :p
WHOA the unfancied Lee (Tsuen Seng) won the 1st game 21-17 :eek:

I wish I was there ... Third set will be hard-fought.

Lee TS continues to surprise (or maybe it is not so surprising anymore) after leaving BAM. Maybe KBH can follow his footstep. Problem is, KBH has never shown much, whereas LTS has fulfilled his potential during his prime.

Wah Lee TS is really battling it out!! Against all odds! C'mon Lee TS!!!

i like hirose..she's a real fighter...i remember the asian games match between hirose n xie xingfang....she lost the 1st game 21-(something single digit) then fought back in the 2nd game to bring it to deuce n won the 2nd game...she fought really hard in the 3rd game also but luck wasnt on her side, but it was definetly a hard fought match for XXF..
so i hope hirose wins in this match against Lu Lan..

wow LTS managed to win the 1st game..impressive...i think he's better than KBH-who has just lost the game to sony...haihzzz

Yeah y're right. Remember she is abt 8 or 9 points down while playing WMC in the 2nd set, all of us thought she is done already, but she manage to fight back. WMC is actually lucky to won the 2nd set.

Beng Hong is not a born badminton player....he will be wasiting his time, effort and BAM's funds if he continues....he should try ping pong maybe he might be the next Wang LiQin??!!

In badminton, KBH is not getting anywhere any time soon. It may all be too tough for him. Just as in studies, some go far but others are just so-so. KBH is just so-so.

Lee TS going for the BIG Korean kill!! Not too far away from a major upset! C'mon!

MAS lee leav KOR lee very far laa...

yes Lee (MAS) won straight game

Lee Tsuen Tseng sends Korean BIG hope out!!! In straight sets! Well done Lee....good try the other Lee

Gigantic upset by the MAS Lee over the KOR Lee. The score in the second game would indicate there was something wrong with LHI. Anyone can confirm?

What happened with Lee Hyun Ii??? I really feel shock with LTS performance.He win over him in two straight set and the second set just let the korean scored 8 marks.Wow,the Mas LTS is on fire now.

LL puling ahead of Eriko 14-11.
Battle of the Wangs, the HK version leading the CHN (but cuter:p :p ) version 12-8

Its either, Lee TS was in unstopable form today OR HI Lee caught the Lin Dan M'sian Open disease...

A great day for MAS so far, with three major upsets created (KKK/WPT, Roslin, LTS) and only two players (whom we didn't place high hope on anyway) lost.

Oh no... 3/4 my favourite MS players out, only 1 remain... Hopefully he won't catch LiYongBoitis this time,

Lets see how the other high hopes of M'sia does?? Hafiz and Lee Chong Wei? Any predictions?

A great day for MAS so far, with three major upsets created (KKK/WPT, Roslin, LTS) and only two players (whom we didn't place high hope on anyway) lost.

You forgot Julia Wong.

Poor Eriko ... luck of draw not on her side

BTW, what is the full score of Sony vs. KBH?

Hafiz vc CH just started. 2-2

A great day for MAS so far, with three major upsets created (KKK/WPT, Roslin, LTS) and only two players (whom we didn't place high hope on anyway) lost.

i think there were 5 upsets caused by the malaysians in total...
-KKK/WPT over ZJ/ZTT
-julia wong over pi hongyan
-roslin over kenneth j
-WMC over kaori mori (cuz kaori is ranked higher in BWF, so i still call it an
upset even tho WMC is in great form)
-Lee TSuen Seng over Lee Hyun Il (definitel the biggest upset of the day):eek:

now its hafiz's turn...GO HAFIZ!!!!!!im still supporting u!!!haha:) :)

As always. Hafiz will lead on first set. Maybe he will win it. But, the real problem is on 2nd and 3rd set.

10-4 to Hafiz.......

As always. Hafiz will lead on first set. Maybe he will win it. But, the real problem is on 2nd and 3rd set.

Yeah, agree on that. He has a BIG mental block when it comes to second or third games. Maybe Chen Hong knows that and is taking it easy in the first game

Hafiz is leading far away with 11-5 but i can't predict anything coz i know well his unconsistent performance.

I reckon Hafiz is a talented player.....just wondering what wil happen if he is to train under Li Mao instead of Sidek.

14-12. CH fought back.

-WMC over kaori mori (cuz kaori is ranked higher in BWF, so i still call it an
upset even tho WMC is in great form)


Well, Sony is ranked lower than KBH, but I find it almost impossible to call it an upset win.

Hafiz.....hope you can prove it wrong to every ppl out there tat u r not juz champion in the 1st set.... GO GO GO !!!

19-15, Hafiz cashing in on first set

Hafiz is very talented, that's why I feel it is such a waste.

Will Hafiz get his first win over a Chinese since God-knows-when?

See... he won the first set 21-15.

Wait for 2nd set. He will show his true colour. haahahahaha...

hafiz won 1st set!let's see how it goes...

Will Hafiz get his first win over a Chinese since God-knows-when?

he will when he is ready to leave Misbun as his coach.....I can coach better :D:D:D:D:D
