:eek:Erm.. Looks like this year JAPAN Open is more "completed" than WC though ....:cool:

[Morten]

Nowadays WC and Olympics are "easier" to win than super series due to the fact that so many low ranked players from small nations compete in those 2 major championships. With only 12 super series a year we will see the top guns aiming for each one of them so they get the maximum benefit of points for qualification to the olympics next year, so yes this year will most likely see a VERY strong line up in each super series tournament

Yes, its true, but usually the most 'up-set' results happened in these two major championship...players from small nations usually creates some up-set results to those top - guns like....Olympic 2004.. LD lost to Ronald Susilo..WC..07...TH lost to Anup from India and many more..unexpected results which makes the championship a lot to talk about...:p

[Abhay]

Will Chinese domination is continued in All rest of the super series this year or some new faces will come up?
