anymore withdrawal??:confused:

surely Vita-Butet in WD...as they skip XD??....

Msia young MD : Razif/TWK

Young XD & WD Players : Ng Hui Lin, Woon Khe Wei, Lim Khim Wah, Chong Sook Chin.

In doubles dept, Msia will only be represented by KKK/TBH, Fuzzy pair, WPT/CEH.

They are withdrawn from both Denmark & French SS, according to Utusan M, due to budget constraints. For Razif/Wee Kiong, addition reason is they have participated in 3 straight tourneys recently, Rexy wants them to take a tourney break & hone their skills for China & HK SS.

Oh yeah, Rexy is also not going to Europe (same like last yr), he's training the other pairs at home.

There is so many international tournys at GP Level around Asia,
send the juniors there is a better options instead of going to Europe.
All juniors must proove themselves in GP Gold before Going for SS...
Take CWF as example...;)

Lydia Cheah & Julia Wong are runner-ups of GP Gold recently but they're not sent either. Their getting runner up without top players is not the issue, it's not their fault those players decided to withdraw, same as we cant look at Zhou Mi winning those titles as "top players not there". This is considered a break-thru in our WS, since bf this pretty hard for them even to get into semis.
Lydia is low in WR, but Julia should be able to get into main draw.

Budget constraint is the official reason as stated in Utusan. And seniors over juniors, sthing that Rashid has complained abt before.

I dunno whether I should be glad or sad to know that PBSI is not the only one infected by low budget virus.:o

Most of federations got the budgets cut after Olympic, including German,Denmark,Netherland, Singapore ( SIN Coach told me that SBA only sending Kendrick to European SS),Vietnam, Taiwan ( recent Japan Open;s trip was sponsored too)..etc

Oh? And the reason is...?

kak...lydia is at wr44...can get to into qualify round at least

Oh? And the reason is...?

JUST like what misbun shooting out in press...finding those service that lost in the jungle:where is those PSYCHOLOGIST?stamina trainer and so on...;)...after 2 lost outing in final...:rolleyes:...

apparently the reason of nova-butet and rijal-vita withdrew from den is that they got bored of the atmosphere in tourneys competition...they need more time to rest......said local newspaper......

Actually Richard Manaiky felt that time was too chort for them to prepare for DEN Open...Most players had 1 week or 10 days for Lebaran.....

if Nova and Butet is ok. but for vita and rijal.. i think rijal is currently on the fire!! and also greysia.. JMO..

Look out for Danish players Kenneth Jonassen, Peter Gade, Tine Rasmussen and doubles Paaske/Rasmussen on home ground (if they are playing)

Look out for Danish players Kenneth Jonassen, Peter Gade, Tine Rasmussen and doubles Paaske/Rasmussen on home ground (if they are playing)
yes, they will surely participate in this tournament:)

go peter gade!!!!! hahaha :D

Now there is global crisis around the world. So many federations in asia save their budgets to send players to europe, it's quite far from asia. They are waiting for cina n hongkong SS.

Ayob also withdrew from Dutch Open too

Huangkwokhau,
do you have any new information whether my favourite player Taufik Hidayat will attend Denmark Open, I can see he is not on the official list of withdrawels at the moment?! Could be a nice match with Wong CH.

The BWF expects most of the top players to participate. Mentioned Taufik, Chen Jin, Lee Chong Wei, Sony Dwi Kuncoro. And for the womens matches also including Tine Rasmussen.

I hope there is good attendance, so it will be an exciitng tournament.

LCW oso withdrawal ady...

source fr sinchew website

LCW*also withdrew...? wow...this tourneys should hold the record of the ''most withdrawal in SS history ever....''

Ayob also withdrew from Dutch Open too
oh, now i know why ayob withdrew in all the tournament..
its because of his knee injury..he cant play for the coming 4 weeks though..

p/s, anna rice withdrew is because she is having some flew.

After olympic. No tournaments were joined by all top players. Maybe we will wait until 2009. Is final super series held this year?

Latest Withdrawal:

Lee Chong wei
Wong Mew Choo
Xie Xing Fang
Reiko/Ogura

With Lee Chong Wei's withdrawal, this will be a chance for Simon Santoso to shine yet again....and hopefully win his first SS title? Hmm.....

WDN means withdraw. Other info from the press or personal contacts

It's chance for indonesia to sweep all titles.

It's chance for indonesia to sweep all titles.

Nah...draw in WS is tough. Chance is that Sony Dwi Kuncoro should have a realistic go at another SS title, given that only Kenneth Jonassen, Peter Gade or Chen Jin in his half. The last 2 players will fight one-another in the QF, while Sony will face Kenneth. Sony's first two opponents will be Kenichi Tago and either Ng Wei or Chetan Anand.

Simon Santoso has an even better chance of reaching the Final, with Premyslaw Wacha and Petr Koukal as the first two opponents. His QF opponent shouldl be the winner between Arvind Bhat and Mohf Hafiz Hashim. His SF opponent should be either Joachim Persson or Wong Choong Hann.

In the XD, since the 3 top INA pairs withdrew, Devin Lahardi/Lita Nurlita are our best hopes. They have a tough first round draw against Joachim Fischer-Nielsen/Christinna Pedersen.

In the MD, it should be an open field. It will be a tremendous achievement if Markis Kido/Hendra Setiawan can win this title. But, tough matches start from R32 where they will face Anthony Clark/Nathan Robertson. Somehow, Kido/Hendra don't really like to face Anthony Clark, having lost to him and Blair a number of times. Dangerous MAS opponents like Mohd Fairuzizuan Mohd Tazari/Mohd Zakry Abdul Latif and Koo Kien Keat/Tan Boon Heong should be their opponents in the QF and SF. A Final match against Lars Paaske/Jonas Rasmussen or the in-form Mathias Boe/Carsten Mogensen (having won 3 titles in the past weeks) is always possible.

or Wong Choong Hann.

Flandy/Gres is still going, if they win 1st round, they will meet Devin/Lita

Flandy/Gres is still going, if they win 1st round, they will meet Devin/Lita

In that case, Flandy Limpele/Greysia Polii might have a chance. With Rijal/Vita withdrawing and no more players in the Qualification List (all have been promoted), they have a free-ride to R16 and if they face Devin/Lita, they should progress to QF where they could face a tough match against Anthony Clark/Donna Kellogg [4], then possibly David Lindley/Suzanne Rayappan [7] in the SF and Thomas Laybourn/Kamilla Rytter-Juhl [3] in the Final.

Dangerous MAS opponents like Mohd Fairuzizuan Mohd Tazari/Mohd Zakry Abdul Latif should be their opponents in the QF

I WILL not surprise if they lose in 1st round....:rolleyes:

After some Seeded players withdrew, why BWF don't hold Re-Drawing.
The Drawing was held too long time before the tournament's schedule :mad:

We have better chances in MS n MD. Soni dwi kuncoro is on fire. for MK/HS they will have tough fight against LP/JR. Even they have good head to head againts the danes. But the danes play at home. And Malaysia pairs still inconsistent. In MX, i don't hope too much.

japanese team all withdrew....

what......no ogura/shiota then....hiks.....:crying:

wads wit this withdrawing disease going on after OG?!! goodness...

Kenichi Tago...now...he Is Better Than Sato And Sasaki...hehe

based on the draw, i think INA Wd has good chance to win the title, at least reach final....

With Japanese Ogura/Shiota withdrawal, Jo Novita/Rani Mundiasti automatically get easier path at early rounds, home pair Frier Kristiansen/Rytter Juhl likely will waiting them at quarter. Meanwhile Nitya/Greysia and Lita/Endang will take on Chinese youngsters at second round (R/16), the rising pair Cheng Shu/Zhao Yunlei and Pan Pan/Tian Qing respectively. Hope they will create breakthrough here...

Did Kenichi Tago ever play against Taufik? His idol is Taufik.. It will be a good match if they meet on the court. Fan against Idol..

Looks like they just did a redraw :o.

I am confused. Tournament software lists Bao Chunlai, Taufik Hidayat, Xie Xingfang in the draw. Hence I presume they are playing?

Being a Singaporean I should support Kendrick Lee, but I think he has an insurmountable task playing Bao Chunlai in the first round!!

Some great draws in the first round - Taufik vs Wong Choon Hann, Kenichi Tago vs Sony Dwi Kuncoro...

If you look at the draw, BCL, Taufik have a WDN beside their names = Withdrawn. I guess they havent updated as to who'll take the withdrawn players' places or show as walkover.

Looks like they just did a redraw :o.

they did?
where did u see that?

well i think there's no need for a re-draw, just let the QUILIFIERS play on the first round..
