That's a really tough one to pick. So many great teams, including yourself and Lars Paaske, are playing in Men's doubles.

My guess would be Candra Wijaya/Tri Kusharjanto.

I think you shouldnt ask this question as some of our answers might discourage you. :p

But, I hope you win! ;)

Just as Nic said, I hope my answer hasn't discouraged you. Good luck Jonas. Hope you can prove me wrong :).

Jonas,

At the end of the day, you can only try your best. We all at BF hope you will win and mention a few of us in your victory speech *cough* (hint ;)). But i got a feeling Candra will come away with it. As you said, he is the best of his time.

Best of luck! :)

I think Bambang Suprianto is playing doubles with Sigit Budiarto this time. I got this info from http://www.yonexsunrisesingopen.org.sg/men_double.html

Well, as much as I would like to see Paaske and you win, I think it will be Ha/Kim and Erikssen/Lundgaard-Hansen in the final, which the Koreans will win... I think Candra has a less than optimal partner this time.

Oh who am I kidding? It's impossible to even make guesses. It's too early in the season. I have no clue to what shape the participants are in...

Mag,

I agree. Kim/Ra should come away with the mixed doubles title..

For mixed, I would go for Zhang Jun/Gao Ling. Looking forward to seeing them playing together once again.

Are you referring to Kim Dong Moon/Ha Tae Kwon? If you are, yes they are playing. 2nd seed.

Do you know where we can find the seeds and the draws for this tournament? I don't seem to be able to find it on the internet :(. Thanks :)

Jonas,

you guys are playing Choon Tan Fook/Lee Wan Wah on first round.

and then next you will play an English pair, i can't figure out the name from the translation. some body and Clark, i think.

and you are the 3/4 seed, in case you did not know! :D

kwun

08-16-2002, 04:19 PM

correction, Choong Tan Fook is playing with Kim Wai. a new guy from Malaysia. 2nd round is against Robertson and Clark.

Hi Jonas,

Good luck!
By the way, have you met my countryman Choong Tan Fook in a tournament before?
What's your confidence level playing against him and his new partner in the 1st round?

All the best!

My appologies. You're right. After checking the draws, Candra is indeed playing doubles with Bamburg.

I`ve just arrived in Singapore and is a bit surprised to find out out that we`re acsually going to play Fook/Kim as I was told!! The reason why is that the draw wasn`t published yet!! Thank you for that!!
