Krisna 07-18-2007, 10:27 AM Before we realize it, we are already in 'tomorrow'... yet... still no results... huangkwokhau 07-18-2007, 10:43 AM Complete XD and MD has been updated in Philippine website huangkwokhau 07-18-2007, 10:44 AM hendra/ joko lost to younger korean MD as well as Sigit/Frans to Mas in tight games...too bad..

Ha ha ha... :D:p:D I am sad that Sigit is just too old now... in the past, he would not loose to unknown MAS pairs in the 1st round... maybe his time is over... :crying: badMania 07-18-2007, 11:17 AM Fran should find himself a younger partner....but then Rian Sukmawan/Eng Hian faced a similar fate last year when they were finding themselves beaten left and right in the early days. However, I am encouraged by Luluk/Alvent's resurgence in the past 2.5 weeks. They managed to beat yet one of Rexy's boys again....this time Gan Teik Chai/Lin Woon Fui. KlasseE 07-18-2007, 12:05 PM just look what's on tournamentsoftware <H3>Regulations Match schedules may be adjusted by the referee in order to give enough rest to players with sequential matches. they should add: Update of results may be delayed or postponed to next day in order to give enough rest to our staffs for breakfast, branch, lunch, tea break, dinner, super.........this apply to our livescore service as well...... </H3> bic33 07-18-2007, 12:20 PM just look what's on tournamentsoftware <H3>Regulations Match schedules may be adjusted by the referee in order to give enough rest to players with sequential matches. they should add: Update of results may be delayed or postponed to next day in order to give enough rest to our staffs for breakfast, branch, lunch, tea break, dinner, super.........this apply to our livescore service as well...... </H3> nope, you're incredibly wrong... as people (inside source) told me, the PO is catching up with their target quarterfinals in friday... so it wouldn't serve them right to procrastinate it.... as i look into the tournament software, some players have just 2-3 hrs of break.... so it's really exahausting... bic33 07-18-2007, 12:24 PM Fran should find himself a younger partner....but then Rian Sukmawan/Eng Hian faced a similar fate last year when they were finding themselves beaten left and right in the early days. However, I am encouraged by Luluk/Alvent's resurgence in the past 2.5 weeks. They managed to beat yet one of Rexy's boys again....this time Gan Teik Chai/Lin Woon Fui. luluk/alvent is better than all of rexy's boys except KKK/TBH and an in-form CTF/LWW... :D huangkwokhau 07-18-2007, 12:29 PM full update at tournamentsoftware...so many upsets on WD, including no 2 ( japanese), number 7 ( german) and number 8 ( Thai) bic33 07-18-2007, 12:56 PM what? reiko was upset by CH's wife? oohh... there was some talent and skill transfer that occurred...lol madbad 07-18-2007, 05:31 PM What time do 2nd round matches start?

Why can't Hafiz lose to a Russian? What's wrong with being a Russian? And why should Malaysians be disappointed with him? He's only representing himself in the tournament. He should be the one most disappointed with himself. thiery 07-19-2007, 05:19 AM Kuan Ben Hong & Hafiz can go for good i think....better give their places for new players like Tan Chun Seang and Chan Kwong Beng. thiery 07-19-2007, 05:23 AM Why can't Hafiz lose to a Russian? What's wrong with being a Russian? And why should Malaysians be disappointed with him? He's only representing himself in the tournament. He should be the one most disappointed with himself. There is nothing wrong for being a Russian and to beat Hafiz. Just that there is something wrong for Hafiz losing to a Russian. :D People are dissapointed because we supported him and yet he let us down again and again. Just like a Brazil football team being beaten my Malaysia. Something wrong with the Brazilian but nothing wrong with the Malaysians. nwy5633 07-19-2007, 05:43 AM hafiz should be band for international tournament atleast 3 month due to his performance.. maybe tat can help him to get the hunger to win again... hcyong 07-19-2007, 05:51 AM There is nothing wrong for being a Russian and to beat Hafiz.

Just like a Brazil football team being beaten my Malaysia. Something wrong with the Brazilian but nothing wrong with the Malaysians. He never asked for your support. When he loses and you display your anger towards him, how will he feel? He will be like "What the...? You're not the one who lost, I'm the one..." Of couse, if it's a team tournament, it's a different story. thiery 07-19-2007, 06:00 AM He never asked for your support. When he loses and you display your anger towards him, how will he feel? He will be like "What the...? You're not the one who lost, I'm the one..." Of couse, if it's a team tournament, it's a different story. As a Malaysian we support Malaysian. Dont tell me you support a foreign player. In that case, Hafiz would be even angrier. How will he feel then? He will be like "Darn!! what the ___? You dont support me and that's why I lose" Just kidding. Just hope that Hafiz can bounce back and do better next time. hcyong 07-19-2007, 06:10 AM As a Malaysian we support Malaysian.

You dont support me and that's why I lose" Just kidding. Just hope that Hafiz can bounce back and do better next time. You don't show your support to him by venting your anger at him every time he loses. For example, it's silly to say you won't support him in future anymore, because he never asked for it in the first place. robin7 07-19-2007, 06:25 AM Another upset. Bao Chun Lai (x3) was beaten in straight sets by Ronald Susilo (x10) 21-14, 21-8 in 3rd round. However Chen Hong (x1), Lee Chong Wei (x2), Kenneth Jonassem (x4), Sony Dwi Kuncoro (x6) & Park Sung Hwan (x9) all advanced to Friday's Quarter Finals.

Dreamzz 07-19-2007, 07:01 AM really hope tat chen hong is the next victim... ouch, that's nasty. i think it's good to support your favourites and hope that they win, but hoping that a particular player loses is kinda mean. robin7 07-19-2007, 07:01 AM I wonder how Susilo beat BCL with 21-8 in the 2nd game, amazing! Dreamzz 07-19-2007, 07:06 AM it does seem that once BCL loses his concentration and motivation he loses really badly. Jessica 07-19-2007, 07:07 AM I discover this too,this is the biggest problem with BCL.Once he is behind the opponent,he will lose his focus easily.Actually i really feel pity about him,he can counted a good player but always can't win the champion. huangkwokhau 07-19-2007, 07:08 AM I fell sleep when Fastdrop called huangkwokhau 07-19-2007, 07:16 AM Just called Fastdrop, result for WD Lita/Nitya Beat Pan Pan /Qian Tian....upset from INA Ku Pei ting/Chia Beat Ha/kim Endang/Rani beat Valeri/Nina Polii/Jo beat Hwang/Sun ZTT/Yang wei beat Wenni/Elodie Natsir/Vita beat Meilina/Shendy Yu/Wen beat Amelia/sook Pan PanQian Tian WON....sorry not Nitya/Lita huangkwokhau 07-19-2007, 07:16 AM Miyuki/Satoko still playing their 3rd set..18-11.....Japanese won.... huangkwokhau 07-19-2007, 07:17 AM Now MD............... huangkwokhau 07-19-2007, 07:17 AM No.....BCL lost......haiya!!

Anyway KienKiat/BoonHeong show their class today. MY GOODNESS, i just saw it, how can they do that, im amazed ! Moreover the score is 21-14, 22-20. Means both sides also played superbly FAST during give & take :eek::eek::eek: robin7 07-19-2007, 10:41 AM wow....I have not seen him play...I guess one day....Thanks..need to get back to sleep..all night waiting for Fastdrop's call/sms Check it out! (http://www.badmintoncentral.com/forums/showpost.php?p=618023&postcount=2):) badMania 07-19-2007, 10:51 AM I suspected why FHF/CY got a WO from Xie/Guo....at least we know that neither Xie/Guo got injured..??? now at least CHN has a decent MD pairs now, HHB/Shen Ye, now Xie/Guo....I am glad that Luluk/Alvent has a better result than in the past, hope that you can prove that they can beat this up-coming CHN pair. Up/coming CHN pair??? They have been around since God knows when :cool: huangkwokhau 07-19-2007, 11:02 AM Up/coming CHN pair??? They have been around since God knows when :cool: Really???:D:D...sorry then:D:D badMania 07-19-2007, 11:06 AM Overall, a good day for INA. Team Pelatnas dominates the QF for the XD with Nova Widianto/Lilyana Natsir, Flandy Limpele/Vita Marissa and Devin Lahardi/Lita Nurlita all advancing. One semi-final spot is also assured as Nova/Butet will face Devin/Lita. One suprise was Mohd Rijal/Greysia Polii failing to make the cut for QF as they were beaten by the Chinese Taipei pair Fang Chieh-Min/Cheng Wen-Hsing. Fang/Chieh will challenge Flandy/Vita tomorrow. Flandy/Vita better be careful and not under-estimate them :cool: Nothing less than a title will be acceptable here, with the withdrawals of almost ALL the top pairs :cool: There are also 3 Pelatnas pairs in the WD. Lilyana Natsir/Vita Marissa advance as expected and they will face a stern test against Chien Yu-Chin/Cheng Wen-Hsing tomorrow. Jo Novita/Greysia Polii also did well in beating a Korean pair Hwang Yu Mi/Sun In Jang and they are likely to be defeated by Yang Wei/Zhao Tingting in the QF. The 4th seed Rani Mundiasti/Endang Nursugianti struggled against the Russian pair Nina Vislova/Valeri Sorokina and they have another tough match against Satoko Suetsuna/Miyuki Maeda tomorrow. In the MD, Luluk Hadiyanto/Alvent Yulianto qualify for yet another QF. If they can beat Guo Zhendong/Xie Zhongbo (who surprisingly beat the second-seed Tony Gunawan/Candra Wijaya), a first final appearance in 2/3 years beckons for them. Meanwhile, the club pair Rian Sukmawan/Yonathan Suryatama Dasuki also did well in qualifying for the QF in beating Chew Choon Eng/Hong Chieng Hun. They have an unenviable task of beating the top-seed Koo Kien Keat/Tan Boon Heong tomorrow. In the MS and WS, Sony Dwi Kuncoro and Adriyanti Firdasari are through to the QF. Sony faces a revenge match against Ronald Susilo (who beat Bao Chunlai today), while Firda will face Wang Yihan. It will be a big morale booster (and also improve their WR) before the WC if both players can win their matches tomorrow. badMania 07-19-2007, 01:54 PM It costs quite a sum to continuously SMS overseas. Better to SMS someone else in Manila. Don't worry, our Hau-Ge is rich enough to afford the smses and continuous calls to Manila :p badMania 07-19-2007, 01:56 PM "fan" is actually short for "fanatic". So you are both fanatical fanatics :) I am just a normal fanatic. Hahaha...I am a fanatic...but not so fanatic :D avataar 07-19-2007, 03:13 PM Good matchups for for the 20th - WS - J Schenk vs P Y Yip MS - K Johanssen vs S H Park R Susilo vs S D Kuncoro WD - Y TingTin/W Yang vs G Polii/J Novita flymordecai 07-19-2007, 04:35 PM I think Gunawan lost because the rest of his group were anxious to hit the beach. ;) bananaboy 07-19-2007, 05:17 PM I think Gunawan lost because the rest of his group were anxious to hit the beach. ;) Doesn't Tony pay for his own tournament expenses?:confused: Because if he does, I am sure he doesn't want to go home with a small pay-check, or none whatsoever, just to "hit the beach".:p Inky2000 07-19-2007, 07:58 PM Doesn't Tony pay for his own tournament expenses?:confused: Because if he does, I am sure he doesn't want to go home with a small pay-check, or none whatsoever, just to "hit the beach".:p Or maybe Tony treats the trip as his summer holiday trip. We the ordinary people go for summer holidays and just pay and pay. Tony is different as he could still earn back part of the money that he is going to spend for the holiday ... Hitman71 07-19-2007, 08:51 PM Too many upsets, hmmm ... TG/CW lost 21:16, 21:16 ... WTH .. I thinks they are just warming up and do some calibration. KlasseE 07-20-2007, 12:05 AM Too many upsets, hmmm ... TG/CW lost 21:16, 21:16 ... WTH .. I thinks they are just warming up and do some calibration. It's hardly for TG/CW to keep their performance if they continue to train separately as a pair..... |
