Oh No..only one INA shuttler in SF..anyway..cmon Alamsyah make upset pleaseeeeeeeeee...

if he did...this will be upset of tournament...

if he did...this will be upset of tournament...
This will be upset of THE YEAR!:eek:
Plus, more or less, it will break LD's confidence to face OG!

But I think that's not gonna happen.
LD is way too much for Alam. I'll be more than happy if he can push LD into rubber.

Oh No..only one INA shuttler in SF..anyway..cmon Alamsyah make upset pleaseeeeeeeeee...

Semifinalist position is maximum outcome here considering Alam today's opponent is really heavyweight player.

It'll be upset of the century... hehe..:D

Ms Wong will need more banana power today.:D

yeah u right...just if any miracle happen in this thai gold gp Alam can win this SF match..but anyway..cmon Alam make upset of the century plsssssss...:D:p:p

anyone pls update on court 2 where our player involve.....cause im not at home now....on hset now.....

Sudket! Saralee! Sudket! Saralee!

..the kids are in bed already??.. ;)http://l.yimg.com/us.yimg.com/i/mesg/emoticons7/36.gif

A slow start by Sudket... I believe they will bounced back;)

Just know that Saralee is older than Sudket !

malaysia pair 17-21 to super china in 1st set!!!

malaysian still chasing 11-15 in 2nd set

china 5 more points to reach into the final!!!

He/Yu has caught S/S 7-7 now in 2nd

Thailand! Thailand!

THA leading 18-15.

Another mistake from Sudket gives CHN match point 20-18

Sudket smashes into the net to hand the match to He/Yu

Sudket should really find another partner before he becomes too old for this.
It's a shame to see him working so hard when Saralee is chock full of errors :o

oh dear. Thailand lost after having a 3pt lead. they gave 7 straight points to China and conceded the match.

He Hanbin / Yu Yang beat Sudket Prapakamol / Saralee Thungthongkam

21-14 / 21-18

On the other court, Lin Dan is having it easy against Alamsyah Yunus.
Quite the expected result ;)

thanks goodness tomorrow is Saturday.

Surprise that Huang Hua, joined our BC forum as well.....

how did you figure that out? ;)

On the other court, Lin Dan is having it easy against Alamsyah Yunus.
Quite the expected result ;)
not sure if it is easy....16 points are considered " honorable"...:D Alamsyah just makes you run and run....he is too small..too bad he does not have powerful smahes..his dropshot and netting are fantastic....

Btw, I have a problem w/ live score, so u guys please update me if dont mind

XD Thai lost as well as many of PAWers,...including my nemesis...Madbad...

not sure if it is easy....16 points are considered " honorable"...:D Alamsyah just makes you run and run....he is too small..too bad he does not have powerful smahes..his dropshot and netting are fantastic....
I'd say that Lin Dan is being honourable by allowing him 16 points ;)

how did you figure that out? ;)
She told me...I met her and her husband in 1994...also recently Xu Huiling, deputy secretary of China badminton just mentioned as I believe she was matchmaker as both did not speak mandarin and Indonesia before...very funny and romantic at the same time...:D

Wang Chen, as usual, looks quite cute :rolleyes:
It seems Lu Lan needs a new hairdresser.

Wang Chen has the lead at 5-3 :)

I'd say that Lin Dan is being honourable by allowing him 16 points ;)

At the first break, Lu Lan leads Wang Chen 11-8 :)

At the second break, Lin Dan leads Alamsyah Yunus 11-9 :)

old Chinese style Wang Chen vs. new Chinese style Lu Lan.

it is amazing that Wang Chen has been playing internationally since mid-90's. i remember she was playing in the WGPF in 1996.

interesting how Lu Lan is having trouble reading WC's shots. LL leads 14-10.

Too many unforced errors from Wang Chen
Lu Lan moving ahead smoothly!

Lu Lan wins the first game 21-14 :eek:
Lin Dan leading Alamsyah Yunus 17-14 in their second game.

oh dear. WC looks a bit tired. this is only the first game!
Her birthday was sometime last week... 21st June (also the longest day of the year, I think)

Alamsyah Yunus has drawn level with Lin Dan 18-18 :eek:

Lin Dan beats Alamsyah Yunus to enter the final
21-16, 21-18 :cool:

It was a brave show by Yunus.

Not bad and too bad.....levelling 18 all with LD....good effort by Alamsyah...thats the way he should play...

So far CHN team doing good in this tourney, they will revenge their performance at IO last week. I think they will do the clean sweep tomorrow.

Xie Xingfang opens up a big lead over Xing Aiying 7-3 :eek:

Lu Lan enters the final beating Wang Chen 21-14, 21-12

Also they all use the same yellow overgrips :(

4 all nw for WD...

XXF won 21-7,21-16...

At the recent Singapore Open 2008, Xing Aiying lost to Tine Rasmussen 13-21, 11-21.

At the Thailand Open 2008, although Xing Aiying managed to get almost the same number of points against Xie Xingfang, this loss looks worse... 7-21, 16-21 :(

Chinese Taipei WD leading 8-6 nw

Yellow and white... that somehow for me just looks wrong... :(.

At the Thailand Open 2008, although Xing Aiying managed to get almost the same number of points against Xie Xingfang, this loss looks worse... 7-21, 16-21 :(
..if we tally up her total vs. Tine, XAY got 24 pts (13+11)..
..against XXF, she only managed to get 23 pts (7+16)....i'd say it's about even..:cool:

btw, i assume you're 'really' going now??.. ;)

Chinese Taipei Wd took 2nd game 24-22

Yes! second set won by CTP!! :D:D:D

mm..can you get any picture of her???im curious here!cannot imagined how it looked..;)
It was during Singapore Open...to make it worse..they should tape with "hello Kitty" print on it....:D:D Lu Lan may get upset

result plssssssss

Good stuff from Ms Wong. I bet if Zhang play against CTF, he'll get a wippin...;)

You guys suddenly turn to be "Nona Igun", critizicing players' fashion, he3!
Yes, Taipei won 2nd set! Win the 3rd and make it no clean sweep for CHN

a good chance for WPT/CEH for final. Well done!

match pt for CHN,20-12

CHN WD won it,21-13

WD will between MAS and CHN....

I dont think bot WPT/CEH or JY/LY will win over the winner between these CHN and Taipe. And if Taipe win hardly over CHN, they will win easily in final. Yup, same like Vita/Butet did last week.

MAS WD did beat this chinese pair before...;) you will never know

how knows maybe CTF will ask his GF to loose? hehe.
Unlikely. China will win all of it.

Now it is show time to see Kungfu Panda aka Tesana with Shaolin Pandas....hehe

malaysia through to final vs world number 1...

That thai guy is so hugeeeee................ It'll be a miracle to win. hehehe....

man... I think the commentator is surprised at his size as well. So many big words and weight and size already. Its a miracle. If he wins, I think all players should stuff themselves with food. Forget about fitness. hehe.

oh yes.... now you remind me of that Panda. Nothing is impossible. heee hhheeee haaa haaa.

Ya all, me just got back, RTM 1 isnt showing anymore... no time to check the threads... can you all just tell eagle is GD Sports showing?? Maybe I can catch the last match

Black shirts for Chinese team is good :D

wow...Kungfu Panda leads....9-8

Ya all, me just got back, RTM 1 isnt showing anymore... no time to check the threads... can you all just tell eagle is GD Sports showing?? Maybe I can catch the last match
Hong Kong Cable TV is showing

FHF smashes aren't proving to be effective :P

Black shirts for Chinese team is good :D
YEP...FU Haifeng looks sharp and handsome...a bit like aaron Kwok:D

I hope CHN will win...as many PAWs on Thai....hehe..25 points....

YEP...FU Haifeng looks sharp and handsome...a bit like aaron Kwok:D
Yah... good observation, does look a bit like Aaron Kwok :D.

Come on...FHF...half chinese and Indonesian

Yah... good observation, does look a bit like Aaron Kwok :D.
Arron Kwok is more feminine but our FHF looks more macho...:p

Haiya....16-13 for Thai now....pls no upset...hehe

Wow that Thai young dude has good smashes :D

18 all......nice to see Kungfu panda's play

Hong Kong Cable TV is showing

Thanks, I'm watching "HK Wired Sports" from PPMate, my Sopcast is not working today.

The big sized Tesana is proving his worth here :D

Wow that Thai young dude has good smashes :D
Songphone does have strong smashes...he is pretty good in XD too

wow..Panda can JUMP....hehe

Haiya....16-13 for Thai now....pls no upset...hehe
he he he he, so far no upset, eagle want upset! :D

Wow that Thai young dude has good smashes :D
<nod> Didnt know a big sized fella can jump so high

very lucky CHN could seal 1st set

wow 23-21 to cy/fhf... close one hehe :D

The thin fellow made more mistakes. Disservice to the big guy.

FHY/CF were excellent in attack, but their defense looks vulnerable.
I think REXY can instruct his men to keep on attacking the chinese from the begining in order for any mas pair to win...

Kung Fu Panda gota strong defense too. The only way to beat him is keep sending sharp drop shots, not by smashing hard though...

nice to watch MD match

11-10 to the Thais!!! :D:D:D:D

man.... miracle do happen. In a short moment for panda.

The defending champion OG is also getting older. So power and speed my be less compare 4 years ago. However, wisdom is there. ;)

Is FHF really half Indonesian?

The thai gave up on confidence. Initially it was there. Too bad. Mental need to be stronger.

All big PAWers are gone too,..hehe

The defending champion OG is also getting older. So power and speed my be less compare 4 years ago. However, wisdom is there. ;)
Defending OG champion :confused: :eek:

FHY/CF were excellent in attack, but their defense looks vulnerable.
I think REXY can instruct his men to keep on attacking the chinese from the begining in order for any mas pair to win...

If it's Fuzzy, they keep the shuttle low, play very close to the net, not to give chance for Fu to do his hard smashes. Other Msia MD dont do like that.

Fu/Cai I think played better during TC Finals. Here, like they're feeling out the Thais, it's a new Thai MD pair-up. But this Thai pair is certainly one to watch in future, he he. More nicknames.:D

Is FHF really half Indonesian?
YES...his father is from Surabaya...just sent you PM

The defending champion OG is also getting older. So power and speed my be less compare 4 years ago. However, wisdom is there. ;)

Errr.....:confused::confused:If you're refering to MD, the 2004 champs already retired. It was a Korean pair, one of them Ha, now coaching the Korean MD.

so far, 3 out of 5 events in the final is an ALL chinese affair :(

Errr.....:confused::confused:If you're refering to MD, the 2004 champs already retired. It was a Korean pair, one of them Ha, now coaching the Korean MD.
Its Hae Tae Kwon/Kim Dong Moon who won the 2004 OG gold, their teammates Lee Dong Soo/Yoo Yoon Seong get the silver.
This year the Korean will make the clean sweep again for MD in Gold & Silver;)

Its Hae Tae Kwon/Kim Dong moo won the 2004 OG gold, their teammates Lee Dong Soo/Yoo Yoon Seong get the silver.
This year the Korean will make the clean sweep again for MD in Gold & Silver;)

Thanks for the info, also wondering which defending champ extreme was refering to.
Lee/Jung are hot favourities for gold but 2nd pair Lee/Hwang for silver??? He he, there are many other better pairs that can make mince meat of Lee/Hwang. No clean sweep.

LEE/Hwang is one class lower from te rest eventhough they are runner up of AE.

YK has a fast .movement on court....

Good test for Lindan Tomorrow.

oh yes. its the korean defending champ. former WC.

Viva thailand !

so far, 3 out of 5 events in the final is an ALL chinese affair :(

not very surprised as for
MS- LCW is absent
WS- Tine is absent
MD- LYD/JJS is absent
WD- always china's
XD- Widianto/Lilyna absent

these are the main ppl who can challenge the title strongly but were absent..
so of coz china have a 99% chance to make a clean sweep

Haha indeed... :cool:
Glaives of wisdom la

Hope Bonsaak beat LD tomorrow. Also MAS WD can repeat their succes when they beat CHN No.1 WD. Hmm, difficult missions for them!

YES...his father is from Surabaya...just sent you PM

ahhhhh.me want that messages too!!!ahahahahaahha
i've heard about him (FHF) being indonesian blooded before,but never get the confirmation.can you please be a very nice BCers and send any information about it :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D tksssss a lotssss

Well, the only one exciting showdown to watch tomorrow is first match LD vs Thai Superman. Boonsak is the best hope to deny CHN white wash here, let's see...

Except for the WD final, the rest of the matches are seeded 1 vs seeded 2. Guess if the chinese WD seed 2 didn't withdrawl we might have first and second seeds in all finals. These don't come along often (usually due to upsets) although first two seeds are supposed to be in the final.

surprisingly...semis only have 12 pages...

malaysia wong/chin rockss on to final.. hooray..

YES...his father is from Surabaya...just sent you PM
maybe chinese being kicked out of indonesia 30 years ago like tan xianhu and other famous badminton coaches in China. without them, china badminton team can not be as strong as today.

not very surprised as for
MS- LCW is absent
WS- Tine is absent
MD- LYD/JJS is absent
WD- always china's
XD- Widianto/Lilyna absent

these are the main ppl who can challenge the title strongly but were absent..
so of coz china have a 99% chance to make a clean sweep

just guessing what china want by throwing all his seeds in GP n not in SS such IO.. of course they'll win.. But without any pride at all.. It's such ashamed winning, i thought.. n d GP can't be standard 4 china players facing olympic games.. So marvelled..

come on... all first seed..except for women double..

haha...... malaysia rocks..

come on wong/chin prove them wrong that u both can win gold in olympics..hehe

wong/chin boleh...

1000 post dy..... finally/akhirnya

so far, 3 out of 5 events in the final is an ALL chinese affair :(
surprisingly...semis only have 12 pages...
1000 post dy..... finally/akhirnya
..there were 2 representatives for MAS in the Semis, yet it was a pretty quiet night....For tomorrow's Finals, i won't be surprised to see the same (less) interest..Won't be surprised either if CHN sweeps all titles..But hope the MS match will be one entertaining one. And 3 of the 5 matches won't be decided by a W/O (that could mean the Finals thread could be down to only 6 pages:p)... :cool:
