Somebody said KBH spars with LCW. I think he shouldn't coz it is affecting LCW's games. :)

[abedeng]

Gamepoint Fu/Cai and 2 Danish pairs.

[sickgal]

and here comes the danes with the 1st victory in game 1

[madbad]

DEN XD try to mount last ditch attempt, and saves 4 matchpoints!!!

Rizal/Polii, don't make me angry, you wouldn't like me when I'm angry ....

Let me guess, you turn green, muscles begins to expand ripping your clothes to shreds. You have uncontrollable temper and go on a destruction rampage. I thought I saw that once in the movies...:D :D

[abedeng]

Ong/Tan lose in 1st game 18-21. Hendra/Joko try to salvage game 1, 19-20.

[sickgal]

DEN XD try to mount last ditch attempt, and saves 4 matchpoints!!!

[abedeng]

Rizal/Polii make me angry, losing 22-24.
Fu/Cai make LYB smile, 21-19.
LCW makes our hearts flutter, 12-11.

[X Ball]

Looks like LCW's habit of living dangerously lately is going to stay. Li Mao needs to blast his ears.

[sickgal]

lcw n shoji sato match is pretty interesting..the scores is kinda close..

[abedeng]

LCW sees concern in his GF's eyes, 15-13.
Ong/Tan step up slowly, 2-5

[abedeng]

The great Danes are walking in the park, 6-2, giving young MAS pair space to catchup, 4-6.
Fu/Cai at 4-4.
LCW sees his coach's stern face, 18-15.

[abedeng]

Fu/Cai pull a lead, 7-4. As do great Danes, 9-6.
Polii/Rizal down 6-8, wonder if their morale suffers from the 2nd game loss.

[X Ball]

Shen and Hock plays catchup again in 2nd game --- don;t they know how to play any differently ?

[sickgal]

fu/cai is still leading by 7-5.... lcw's match makin me faint lol..sigh sigh

[X Ball]

[abedeng]

Sato forces deuce 20-20.

[lipans]

20-20 aaa...? Haiya

[**KZ**]

LCW seems to struggle at the end of the set always......LD used to hav a habit of losing the 1st set then winning the other 2....now LCW?

[abedeng]

Sato gets gamepoint!!! And takes the game 22-20.

[madbad]

Sato has come back to take the 1st game 22-20. LCW must have had a major nervous spasm.

[lipans]

LCW lost 1st set.

[sickgal]

in MO lcw lost in quarter-final... don't tell me he wanna let this happen in the round of 16

[X Ball]

LCW is losing his balls --- his confidence is going to shreds

[Jessica]

Oh no...What happened to LCW???He lose the first set by 20-22.I wonder what is with him lately.

[abedeng]

2 veteran pairs leading the youngsters 10-8 and 11-7 respectively.
Can Polii/Rizal come back from 8-10 down?

[X Ball]

LCW is shocking.....does anyone know whether he is suffering from any problem....maybe tooo much girlfriend or not enough ?

[tbleong]

lcwＬＯＳＥ　１ＳＴ　ＳＥＴ　ＴＯ　ＳＨＯＪＩ

[X Ball]

Bin Sheng and Soon Hock's adventure ends here today....they will on the plane home I predict.

[sickgal]

[abedeng]

The great Danes swat Ong/Tan like fireflies, 16-9.
Fu/Cai have an uncomfortable lead, 12-11.

[madbad]

Den XD team look to have broken the INA spirit, up 19-11

[abedeng]

LCW given an earful of scolding, 5-1
I give Rizal/Polii a screenful of scolding, 11-19.

[X Ball]

Rexy is right --- the young guys do not know how to play the Europeans

[tbleong]

ｈａｆｉｚ　ａｎｄ　ｒｏｓｌｉｎ　ｅｎｔｅｒ　ｑｆ！！　ｗｏｗ，，，，

[sickgal]

msian MD seems no hope to make it to the further stage...fu/cai is leaing by 16-11...

[X Ball]

LCW's 2nd game is like his first- starts out fast but allowing Shoji to catch up. Whatpredictability !

[abedeng]

Ong/Tan are out of the picture, 9-19.
Fu/Cai maintain their motivation, 14-11.
Polii/Rizal lost theirs, 11-21.
LCW knows we are not happy with him, 8-4.

[abedeng]

Next, LCW's girlfriend against China no 3, Lu Lan.

[X Ball]

WMC starts --- LCW has a pip across and finds inspiration ! I hope....

[lipans]

LCW girlfriend will play next court.

[abedeng]

LCW wants to get this over with and support his GF, 10-4.
Fu/Cai hold the upperhand, 17-12

[sickgal]

[tbleong]

ＬＣＷ　ａｌｗａｙｓ　ｓｌｏｗ　ｓｔａｒｔｅｒ！！

[lipans]

LCW staring at WMC. blink blink....

[sickgal]

and so fu/cai make it to the QF...many many congrats!

[X Ball]

For the someone who said Malaysia has many good doubles pairs, no it hasn't. Bin Sheng and Soon Hock not one of them, neither is the pair of Fairuzizuan and Wu. So not many real good pairs now.

[abedeng]

Fu/Cai complete the rout, 21-13. Next, the great Tony/Candra vs Hang/Cho.
LCW at 13-6.
WMC has a good start, 2-0.

[X Ball]

I think LCW purposely slowed his game to be on court with Mew Choo. Now we know. :)

[abedeng]

LL takes 1st pts, 2-3. LCW moves to 16-6.

[abedeng]

Lee/Hwang to meet the poles

[X Ball]

Maybe one day they will play doubles together.

[abedeng]

Neck and neck scoreline, LL 3-4 down. LCW 17-6 up

[X Ball]

WMC playing like LCW --- starts fast and gets caught up by opposition. All planned ?

[abedeng]

WMC trail for the 1st time, 4-5.
LCW still cannot kill off Sato, 17-8.

[abedeng]

13 gamepoints for LCW. WMC and LL 5-5.

[sickgal]

wmc is behind by a point... 5-6...sigh sigh...

[X Ball]

Now WMC has nervous spasms

[abedeng]

Rubbergame for LCW. LL retakes advantage to 7-6.

[sickgal]

and so LCW won the 2nd game...21-7

[tbleong]

[Jessica]

The japanese leading again 6-1 in the rubber set.

[abedeng]

LCW breaks the duck, 2-6.
WMC needs a break, 6-11.
Tony/Candra 8-5 up, Polish pair 5-7 down.

[Jessica]

Oh,i feel something bad for LCW,today he is not in the condition.

[X Ball]

This is looking bad for LCW at 3-8

[madbad]

Sato is killing LCW in the final set...LCW might be on the plane tonight too if he stays dreaming on court about WMC
At this rate they can both fly back together :p

[abedeng]

LL extend lead 15-8. LCW at 3-8 down. Bad omen.

[Jessica]

Now LCW 3-8 and WMC 9-15..

[sickgal]

Tony/Candra get their big break, 11-7
Poles still 2 pts behind, 7-9.

[abedeng]

Sato and Lu Lan maintain their advantage, 16-10 and 9-5.

[X Ball]

Madbad, it could be but Li Mao will sit between them as punishment for their losses

[Malaysianfan]

When will the old LCW come back?:crying::crying:

[abedeng]

Lu Lan close to the finish, 18-11.
Sato has useful lead, 11-6.
As do Tony/Chandra, 14-8.

[Jessica]

Things are getting from bad to worse.He is behind with 6-11.If he really lose this time,he will definetely drop from the world no 2 place.

[X Ball]

Whoever is coaching LCW now is doing it badly

[lipans]

Aiya... LCW watching WMC play, WMC watch LCY playing. How r they going to win?

[X Ball]

LCW needs to be Houdini if he is to win this now

[Malaysianfan]

Whoever is coaching LCW now is doing it badly

The problem is Li Mao doesn't think that LCW is sliding.:mad:

[abedeng]

WMC lose 1st game 14-21.
LCW will lose, unless he can do magic again, 8-12.

[abedeng]

LCW try to close in, 9-12
Tony/Candra and Lee/Hwang both have 17-13 leads.

[abedeng]

WMC get 1st pt of 2nd game, 1-0. LCW at 10-12.

[Jessica]

I think that magic won't happens all the time.He is still behind with 11-13.

[X Ball]

LCW swapping his Subaru for a Ferrari to catch up

[abedeng]

Sato still lead, 13-12. Tony/Candra closing the 1st game, 20-16.

[lipans]

12-13 oredi.....

[Jessica]

Very nervous,13-13 now....

[tbleong]

ｌｅｔ＇ｓｓａｙ　Ｌ：ＣＷ won this game, how he fight with CJ???? pls,, Malaysian have to woke up....

[abedeng]

Tony/Candra wins, Lee/Hwang at gamepoint, and LCW leads 14-13.

[X Ball]

Now WMC gets the Subaru and slows down

[lipans]

waaa... 14-13 to LCY.

[wynn000]

LEE vs SATO 14-13

[X Ball]

Did u guys see LCW's Ferrari ovetaking Sato's ?

[abedeng]

Lu Lan pulling away 5-2, must be she had learnt her lesson in MO.
LCW looking good now, 16-13.

[madbad]

LCW has reeled off 7 points in a row. The alarm bells must have gone off in his head up 17-13

[abedeng]

Today may not be WMC's day, 3-8.
LCW is in cruise mode, 18-13.

[wynn000]

Lee 19 Sato 13.......

[tbleong]

any body can tell me why LCW like to chease from the back? why he dunt want to lead all the way. i found, if he leading, he will lose point easily. AM I RIGHT????

[madbad]

WMC no match for Lu Lan. She needs to develop a weapon... any weapon. Down 3-9

[Malaysianfan]

Did u guys see LCW's Ferrari ovetaking Sato's ?

But he cant do this everytime,especially when he plays against LD, PG, BCL and Taufik.He should stop making unforced errors and losing points in a row.Why cant he change???:(

[abedeng]

Tony/Candra with a 4-1 lead. Hwang/Lee just won 1st set.

Matchpoint, LCW!!

[sickgal]

and here comes our another survival in MS>..... finally ....lcw..work hard...

[wynn000]

k
LCW won 21-13

[madbad]

any body can tell me why LCW like to chease from the back? why he dunt want to lead all the way. i found, if he leading, he will lose point easily. AM I RIGHT????

I don't think he's doing it by choice. Ever consider his opponent may be playing well??:rolleyes: :rolleyes:

[Jessica]

abedeng,magic do happens....LCW win in the rubber set with 21-13...Now my feeling is really complicated,do no should be happy or sad for him...

[abedeng]

LCW finishes the game in time to console WMC during the break, 21-13.
WMC down in the dumps, 3-11.

[sickgal]

I think that magic won't happens all the time.He is still behind with 11-13.

and its proven magic do happen for once again!! :D

[matt_att]

Lee 19 Sato 13.......

I think LCW is driving Kenari ... not Ferrari:D

[Jessica]

LL is simply too strong for WMC...

[X Ball]

It is like what I said --- LCW hopped into a Ferrari and just shot away from Sato.

What it tells me is he is doing it on purpose. Nobody plays like this if he wasn't sure he was going to win. Is he putting on a show or just confusing his opponents ? I don't know.....this is too quirky.

[madbad]

Lu Lan smoking WMC like a cheap cigar up 13-3

[abedeng]

Sorry WMC, not your day today, 3-12 down.
Tony/Candra cruising at 10-2.
Lee/Hwang 4-2 up.

[abedeng]

3-15, and WMC knows it! LCW better cheer her up after this.

[Jessica]

and its proven magic do happen for once again!! :DYa....Ha..ha..:D LCW make me believe in magic once again...:p

[X Ball]

Unfortunately WMC cannot do the same the LCW did. That is jump into a Ferrari and overtake her opponent.

[abedeng]

Must be Zhu Lin had given Lu Lan all there is to know about WMC's weaknesses.

INA-US pair at 11-5, KOR pair at 8-4.

[X Ball]

I must ask LCW what Houdini trick he used to spurt away. :)

[abedeng]

Chen Jin and Dicky about to start.

[Malaysianfan]

It is like what I said --- LCW hopped into a Ferrari and just shot away from Sato.

What it tells me is he is doing it on purpose. Nobody plays like this if he wasn't sure he was going to win. Is he putting on a show or just confusing his opponents ? I don't know.....this is too quirky.

I think he is just inconsistent in his game. He tends to lose points in a row and likes to show us his magic by winning points without making any mistakes.

[Jessica]

So sad for WMC...She is thrasing by LL with 21-4...

[X Ball]

WMC gets to go home with KBH. is that good ?

[abedeng]

Game over, WMC is back in LCW's arms .....

Tony/Candra will be in action tomorrow, 19-7 up. Followed by Hwang/Lee, 14-9.

[X Ball]

Ok Hashims are in, now LCW. Yeoh Kay Bin perhaps later ?

[abedeng]

Tony/Candra make it look easy, 21-16, 21-10.

[X Ball]

Doubles also looking good with Tan Fook and Wan Wah in and maybe KKK/TBH next

[abedeng]

MAS q-finalists

MS:
Roslin
Hafiz
LCW

XD
Koo/Wong

MD
Choong/Lee

If Koo/Tan make it, then we are guaranteed a semis spot, 'cos they will meet Choong/Lee.

[X Ball]

ERiksen and Lunngard pair looks good today.

[Malaysianfan]

Doubles also looking good with Tan Fook and Wan Wah in and maybe KKK/TBH next

But sadly both pairs are going to meet in QF.I don't know which pair i should support.:confused:

[X Ball]

My bet is Roslin this year.

[X Ball]

I would rather KKK/TBH gets in because I know they can beat other pairs out there.

[abedeng]

Lee/Hwang cut the Poles down, something Fairuz/Lin failed to do.
Dicky is having a good scrap with Chen Jin, but it won't be long now .... 10-9 to CJ.
Wang Chen and Seo at 4-4.

[tbleong]

I Hope Palyama Can Beat Cj. Good For Lcw... Palyama,,, Gogogoggogog.

[Malaysianfan]

Today Choong/Lee performed well considering that their juniors like Zakry/Gan are still struggling to beat the Thais pair.

[X Ball]

Yeoh is on to play CY

[alfa2]

Yeoh Kay Bin is in.....

[X Ball]

YKB is knocking on the doors lately. Hope he does well. He is a very smart player, much better than KBH

[X Ball]

Wow, he realy gets going

[markchan]

I saw YKB play in the MO, he has potential, better than KBH if u ask me. Must improve on his fitness if he were to match the chinese, as he is an attacking player. Go KAY BIN !!

[alfa2]

3-15, and WMC knows it! LCW better cheer her up after this.

Do u mean cheering her up after she lost the game? better not, who knows the cheering job might end up in a room....:cool::cool:and LCW doesnt have the energy to perform magic again tomoro.:D:D:D:D

[abedeng]

Yeoh is starting smartly against CY, 9-5 now.

[**KZ**]

YKB is a good player while Chen Yu seems to be struggling lately....another slump in performance by Chen Yu? remember he suffered a slump in his badminton a while back.....YKB leading 11-6....hope he can avenge his dft in MO

[markchan]

KB takes the lead for the toilet break...haha....keep it up !!!

[abedeng]

Yeoh gets a deserved Kit-Kat at 11-6.
Bao is fast destroying Shon, 10-4
CJ at 8-6 2nd game, after winning 21-16 1st game.

[alfa2]

YKB is leading 9-5.....unbelievable for our Msia MS players today except for LCW, but he is not accountable as he's the only player who's cheating around by performing magic.....:D:D:D:D

[X Ball]

Chen Yu got his work cut out today. HE will know he has a game on --- Yeoh is playing very well

[abedeng]

Still maintaining gap, 12-7 now. Go YKB.
Bao will finish long before him, though, already 11-4 up.

[X Ball]

Just hope it does not go into 3 sets like the MO

[abedeng]

YKB moves faster, 16-9. Bao is stalled a bit, 14-6.

[X Ball]

He is running hot.

[Felicia_txh]

Hope Malaysian players can perform well!!KKK n TBH gambate oh!!jia you jia you!!

[abedeng]

CJ 13-10 up over Dicky.
YKB nets another point, 17-10 before service change, 11-17 to CY.
Bao moves ahead 17-7.

[X Ball]

Chen Yu is getting a little run

[abedeng]

CY tries to mount a fightback, 13-17. Bao almost there 19-7.

[abedeng]

YKB stops CY's progress, 18-14. Chen Jin 17-10 up.

[X Ball]

Yeoh must be benefiting from working with Li Mao..he has improved out of sight. Is it bcause of maturity ? Or is it because he enjoys badminton a lot more now than before ?

[abedeng]

Now 5 gamepoints for YKB. 10 for Bao.

[abedeng]

Bao finishes 1st game 21-10, but YKB under pressure, 20-17 now, CY serving.

[alfa2]

will YKB proves that he's in the yoyo team oso in the 2nd game?

[madbad]

Seo is leading Wang Chen 18-16 in the 2nd game.

[X Ball]

Looks a replay of MO unless KB stops the rot and finish in 2 games

[tbleong]

KB is dye-in-the-wool fighter.

[LI De Quan]

cy Can Beat Yeoh!!!!!!!!!!!

[X Ball]

If KB gets close, he can finish this off. Don't like his chances if it goes the 3 sets

[spchu]

Li de Quan, You may be outnumbered here ;) Come on Kay Bin

[Dreamzz]

KB is dye-in-the-wool fighter.

what does this mean exactly??
:confused: :confused:

[X Ball]

cy Can Beat Yeoh!!!!!!!!!!!

Hope you are wrong !

[madbad]

Seo really stretching Wang Chen, up 9-7. Can the qualifier pull off a huge upset? Up 11-7

Similarly, Ella is up 13-9 on Yao Jie

Bao looks like he'll close out Shon soon

Chen YTu and Yeoh heading to rubber

[tbleong]

ｃｏｍｅ　ｏｎ　ｙｋｂ．　ｍａｉｎｔａｉｎ　ｙｏｕｒ　ｐｏｗｅｒ／／／／

[X Ball]

dye-in-the-wool means hardcore fighter, never gives up

[madbad]

Bao through easily.
Ella still up 14-11 on Yao Jie
Wang Chen in big trouble, trailing 13-8 to Seo

[alfa2]

Yoyo yoyo yoyo yoyo yoyo......Mr.Yo Kay Bin.....aiyoyyo....u r in the yoyo team indeed.

[abedeng]

And rubber it is!! CY easily take 2nd game 21-12.

Bao has eliminated Shon. Ella & Seo are looking good, esp Seo.

[madbad]

Yao Jie catching up 15-15
Wang Chen going down 9-16

[*izzyC*]

Li de Quan, You may be outnumbered here ;) Come on Kay Bin

Go go Chen Yu!!

[abedeng]

Chen Yu with 4-2 advantage, errr, make that 5-2.

[hcyong]

Chen Yu has a slow start, but thereafter, when things normalise, Yeoh KB is just not his equal.

[Dreamzz]

judging by LCW's performances, i think the match against CJ tomorrow will be very difficult indeed. i would give the edge to the chinese.

[Jessica]

Actually Sato Shoji is not a very bad player.He has a record beating the top player before.So,i still think that it will be 50-50 against LCW and CJ

[LI De Quan]

lee Cw Vs C J :50%-50%

[Speed & Power]

If i've not mistaken Shoji Sato has beaten Taufik Hidayat before in the Thomas Cup last year in staright sets!

[Speed & Power]

Lin Dan slowing down against the Pole, 15-14 now!

[Dreamzz]

If i've not mistaken Shoji Sato has beaten Taufik Hidayat before in the Thomas Cup last year in staright sets!

true true, but then TH was supposedly injured in that tournament (or hadn't fully recovered, can't remember) so i guess that doesn't really count. not saying that he's not a good player, but i doubt he could beat TH when he's fully fit.

[**KZ**]

ella karachkova totally trashed yao jie in the 3rd game.....emerging badminton nation? russia

[Speed & Power]

Lin Dan is thru... takes it 21-14/21-15 !!! LD vs Roslin Hashim in QF's

[Dreamzz]

Lin Dan is thru... takes it 21-14/21-15 !!! LD vs Roslin Hashim in QF's

never any doubt, although that's what i would have said in the MO against PSH as well.

now, if only the jap girls can pull through ...

[abedeng]

Yao Jie really messed up her chances, if it were Wong Mew Choo or Eriko Hirose, they would have taken it.KKK/TBH next, against the World Championship runnerups from ENG.

[Speed & Power]

I just watched Federer hammer Roddick just now in the A-Open semis> Would world badminton ever have any "dominator" just like Roger Federer??? Any candidates, Lin Dan, Taufik??

[abedeng]

What's happening to the cute Jap girls, struggling in 3rd game? C'mon we need cuties to win, already lost Wong Mew Choo and Eriko Hirose. Only ones left is Zhang Yawen ....

Judith making LD's girlfriend sweat a bit, 6-6.

[**KZ**]

polish denmark open champs are giving jap gals a beating in the decider...wonder if they'll fight back
