GROUP 1

DENMARK v HONGKONG

MALAYSIA v KOREA

INDONESIA v JAPAN

CHINA v ENGLAND

my prediction

Denmark will win MS, MD, XD and WD
Korea will MD, WD, and XD
Indonesia will win MS, WS, MD and XD
China will win all matches

Yes, agreed with U,....besides I think INA manage to take all 5.......

[vpsingh]

The best competition to be seen here --- DENMARK v HONGKONG.
And though Chinese are supermen (and superwomen) in the game, I will still wait and see how they fare against Denmark, Indonesia and HK.....

[Han]

According to Sina website, the format sequence has changed this year to :
Match 1 : Men's Doubles;
Match 2 : Women's Singles;
Match 3 : Men's Singles;
Macth 4 : Women's Doubles;
Match 5 : Mixed Doubles;

This, however, may not apply to Malaysia vs Korea if Lee Hyo Jung/Lee Yong Dae are involving more than single event.

So the matcup is out between Malaysia vs Korea :
1 XD :
Kean Keat Koo/Pei Tty Wong vs Yong Dae Lee/Hyo Jung Lee
2 MS :
Chong Wei Lee vs Young Soo Jang
3 MD :
Kean Keat Koo/Boon Heong Tan vs Jae Sung Jung/Yong Dae Lee
4 WS :
Mew Choo Wong vs Hye Youn Hwang
5 WD :
Eei Hui Chin/Pei Tty Wong vs Kyung Won Lee/Hyo Jung Lee

Not sure putting KKK and WPT playing two events is the right thing, I think Malaysia is going all out to surprise the Koreans. All the best to our players.

Japan not sending Sho Sasaki today :(

[mcdreamy]

so, there's no website with livestream of those games??
indovision only broadcast the last 2 days of the competition n i dont have indovision on my house........ pity me.............

[otaclub]

KOR-MAS match is streamed on Sopcast (CCTV)..INA-JAP is not streamed anywhere as far as i know..

[Krisna]

I like Reiko but I think Reiko-Shintaro will be destroyed by Lily-Nova today... :p I predict 4-1 for INA overall...

[ctjcad]

..wow, so little enthusiasm for the 1st day of the SC....Even chris@ccc didn't create a thread for Day 1...:confused:

Go team USA!!:cool:..(oh, wait, are they playing today??)..

[Gunawan]

CCTV5 is showing MD INA vs JPN now

[ssertere]

So the matcup is out between Malaysia vs Korea :
1 XD :
Kean Keat Koo/Pei Tty Wong vs Yong Dae Lee/Hyo Jung Lee
2 MS :

3 MD :

Similar pattern here, both MAS and KOR, played their MD and WD players on MX, lets see who have the better stamina and tech? :rolleyes:

Hopes the best and the luckiest one win....

[robin7]

Who's the commentator on Astro calling Koo as Koh?

[ctjcad]

looks like the crowd is pulling for the Indonesians..
Is that Hau-ge screaming "In-do-ne-sia!! In-do-ne-sia!!"??..
Markis is exclusively playing in the front...Hendra staying back..

[Gunawan]

First set INA vs JPN 21-14

[ctjcad]

what happened to the scheduled broadcast of KOR vs. MAS???...not as interesting???...:confused:
JPN is playing the younger doubles pair..many errors..

Sounds like the crowd is probably enjoying the KOR vs. MAS match more...

[robin7]

LYD/LHJ secure the 1st game 24-22.

[Tjun Tjun]

KKK is making too many mistakes.......now 7-7.....

[Gunawan]

looks like the crowd is pulling for the Indonesians..
Is that Hau-ge screaming "In-do-ne-sia!! In-do-ne-sia!!"??..
Markis is exclusively playing in the front...Hendra staying back..
Hau-ge is not in Guangzhou. He cancelled his trip.

[Tjun Tjun]

KKK smashing into the net.....now falling behind 7-9..........

[Tjun Tjun]

Slim lead for Mas 11-10.............

[Tjun Tjun]

Level 12-12.........

[SolleR]

INA has lead 1-0. Good job Kido and Setiawan...

[Tjun Tjun]

INA won 2nd set 21- 11

[Tjun Tjun]

KKK calling out to his partner when the shuttle was well in....14-15.............

[ssertere]

INA 1-0 JAP.
Now, queen of three sets performing, hopes she can finish the match in 2sets.

GO MKY!!!

[Tjun Tjun]

Korea 17-16............

[Tjun Tjun]

Level 17-17............

[Tjun Tjun]

Lucky net roll over by KKK...18-18...........

[ctjcad]

..hehe, Zhu Lin is doing the honor of CCTV's in-studio host instead of playing....doesn't seem to mind with her happy mood..

[cooler]

INA won 2nd set 21- 11

what can i say, INA owned JP MD pair, too much talent, too much experience. None of the JP's smashes or deception work on kido/setiawan. Kido pulled a nice fake lift.

[Tjun Tjun]

Set point for Mas.....20-18!

[Tjun Tjun]

Korea serving 19-20.............

[robin7]

Hold on, KKK/WPT force a rubber by taking the 2nd game 23-21.

[badMania]

A good start for INA as Markis Kido/Hendra Setiawan easily beat the Japanese pair in straight-sets 21-14, 21-11. I thought Japan will field Kenta Kazuno/Kenichi Hayakawa.

[badMania]

Well, as a neutral observer, I hope MAS can beat KOR :) INA vs MAS in the SF will be a cracking match for sure....likewise, KOR vs CHN.

If KOR loses this XD, they will be put in great trouble given that Lee Chong Wei will probably win the next match. So, this rubber-set will be very crucial for both MAS and KOR.

[badMania]

Hau-ge is not in Guangzhou. He cancelled his trip.

Yes, he called up me yesterday saying that he has to go back to JKT.

[ctjcad]

[ssertere]

i think Japan is reserving their best player for death-or-alive game against England or play-off match

[hoiboy79]

Sitting here watching Maria Kristin Yulianti is agonizing knowing that KKK is going to rubber set against LYD.

[badMania]

I was expecting them to field the in-form pair of Kenta Kazuno/Kenichi Hayakawa, already WR16 right now. They should play against ENG and the important play-off match.

As for INA, they will want to save Nitya Krishinda/Greysia Polii for the must-win WD match against ENG tomorrow. The rest are all expected line-ups.

[haifeng4ever]

I'm scared that KKK will be running out of energy.....

[ctjcad]

..wow, Sayako is putting up a fight against Maria, even doing it with a bit of Susy's style of serve..Park JB doing double duty coaching Sayako..
How come those Indonesian supporters know where the cameras are?? or which cameras are shooting where??..

[hoiboy79]

Any update on MAS-KOR XD score?

[haifeng4ever]

Poor KKK! Played so hard for the mixed doubles....By the time he plays men doubles....He'll be totally worn out.....Sincerely hope that he will pull it off somehow....:crying::crying:

[brujuk]

Go Indonesia players......

Cendol....Cendol.... for Indonesia players :D

Poor KKK! Play so hard for the mixed doubles....By the time he played men doubles....He'll be totally worn out.....Sincerely hope that he will pull it off somehow....:crying::crying:

The MAS vs KOR XD scores look soo interesting. *sigh* Have to wait for the videos..

[cooler]

..wow, Sayako is putting up a fight against Maria, even doing it with a bit of Susy's style of serve..Park JB doing double duty coaching Sayako..

i believe maria is just strolling along;)
she isn't in threat, just look at how she walk and stroke selection;)

[badMania]

Well, the Japanese girl takes the first set 21-18, despite trailing 14-18 just now :eek::mad:

If Maria loses this one, I believe Adriyanti Firdasari will be fielded tomorrow.

[robin7]

Poor KKK! Played so hard for the mixed doubles....By the time he plays men doubles....He'll be totally worn out.....Sincerely hope that he will pull it off somehow....:crying::crying:
LYD too is playing MD later and so are LHJ and WPT in WD.

[ctjcad]

..JPN supporters giving Sayako some last minute push...What a comeback by Sayako, winning 7 straight pts to close the 1st game..Maria, many errors toward the end..

i believe maria is just strolling along;)

[Tjun Tjun]

Not really an exciting match............

[jasonmarc]

What a waste....KKK/WPT will be a spent force in their WD and MD matches later.....no hope for MAS team.......

[badMania]

..JPN supporters giving Sayako some last minute push...What a comeback by Sayako, winning 6 straight pts to close the 1st game..Maria, many errors toward the end..

7 straight pts in fact...14-18 to win it 21-18.

I have a feeling Maria might lose this one :mad:

[zqloy]

Btw, who won the XD match?

[Krisna]

7 straight pts in fact...14-18 to win it 21-18.

I have a feeling Maria might lose this one :mad:

What happened?!? I took my eye off for a few minutes and then the Japanese player won game 1! :crying: I can't believe it!

[kwun]

Kanako Yonekura. haven't seen her for a while.

[ctjcad]

7 straight pts in fact...14-18 to win it 21-18.

I have a feeling Maria might lose this one :mad:
..she can hardly move now; look at her body language and court movements..Sayako is the one hopping around like an Energizer bunny..;)

[badMania]

What happened?!? I took my eye off for a few minutes and then the Japanese player won game 1! :crying: I can't believe it!

Me too...I thought at 18-14 Maria would have wrapped it up quickly :mad:

[robin7]

PHI 2 : 0 RSA - PAW-ers should be very happy now.

USA 1 : 1 CZE - I believe the outcome will depend on WD.

MAS 0 : 1 KOR - KOR will probably win this one.

[Krisna]

How come those Indonesian supporters know where the cameras are?? or which cameras are shooting where??..

INA supporters are fun to watch..., so the cameramen look for us, Chris... :D We do not need to look for the camera... :p

[cheeyf]

hehe
hope she do well in wd later
come on mas
kkk must win md

[Krisna]

Me too...I thought at 18-14 Maria would have wrapped it up quickly :mad:

Maria using her superior techniques to lead again in game 2: 9-6 now... Maria's strokes are one of the best in the game (outside China, I mean)...

[badMania]

Ok...Maria is leading 11-7 right now. The problem is whether she's in the right shape to play a rubber-set.....

[jasonmarc]

MKY seems still bothered by her knee injury,.....but played well in the 2nd game...

[Tjun Tjun]

MS: Korea gets its 1st point 1-8..........

[simonlovers]

16-8 for Maria...:cool:

[rizayosia]

There is no way that Maria will lose 2nd game, it's 18-8.

[cooler]

INA supporters are fun to watch..., so the cameramen look for us, Chris... :D We do not need to look for the camera... :pmaria's level definitely far superior to sato. Sato only strength is her stamina over a slower maria who is prolly not want to push her injured knee too early. Sato will tire out soon;)

[jasonmarc]

MKY is a class above Sayaka.......MKY is too skilfull for Sayaka....

[Krisna]

Maria showing her true class now! Leading 19-8 against the world # 66 from Japan... Go Maria!

[ctjcad]

INA supporters are fun to watch..., so the cameramen look for us, Chris... :D We do not need to look for the camera... :p
..no, i mean, those fans know where the cameras are and whether they're being focused on..
See, another shot at the INA contingents...
Sayaka making more errors now..Too bad she doesn't have a powerful smash, more of a finesse game..

[cooler]

Maria using her superior techniques to lead again in game 2: 9-6 now... Maria's strokes are one of the best in the game (outside China, I mean)...
wrong, Maria's strokes are right up there with the best;)

[badMania]

Maria takes the second set 21-11. Let's see if she can last the rubber-set.

[Krisna]

INA fans shouting "habisin, habisin, habisin" (translation: finish her! finish her! finish her)

[extremenanopowe]

wah.. msia and korea line up interesting. ;)

[Tjun Tjun]

Sudden injection of pace....smashing on the side line.....15-5......now 16-5......

[badMania]

INA fans shouting "habisin, habisin, habisin" (translation: finish her! finish her! finish her)

U mean there's a live telecast?? Which channel is that?

[extremenanopowe]

lee chong wei looks fierce man... hantam! ;)

[cheeyf]

if only mas won g1 js now
lol so close g1 n g2 score but they did their best
proud of them

[cheeyf]

lcw sure win la george
wonder y korea x field park
weird

[Krisna]

Maria's strokes are right up there with the best;)

I'm a bit humble about not claiming that... I'm biased of course, because I've been watching Maria's skill improving over time since she was 13...

[Krisna]

Hey, what's happening now... 1-7 in favor of JPN?!?!?

[badMania]

It's not looking good for Maria as she trails 2-7.

[ctjcad]

U mean there's a live telecast?? Which channel is that?
..shown and heard on Sopcast->CCTV5 (livestream)..

Sayaka does have a soft-touch around the net..but not accuracy..

[simonlovers]

heh ??
3-8 for Maria

[cooler]

hmmm, sato is not tired yet:D

[kwun]

U mean there's a live telecast?? Which channel is that?

http://www.badmintoncentral.com/streaming/cctv5.html

[d3sm0nd]

may i noe wat racquet is KKK using jus now?:confused:

[kwun]

hmmm, sato is not tired yet:D

Japanese girls never give up. very good to watch.

[jasonmarc]

Sato showed some inexperience moves......MKY still looks superior, besides her knee problems..

[Han]

if only mas won g1 js now
lol so close g1 n g2 score but they did their best
proud of them

Malaysia took a gamble letting KKK and WPT played two events and now lost XD and use up tremendous energy ... I hope this won't cost us the MD and WD match later on.

[Han]

Sato showed some inexperience moves......MKY still looks superior, besides her knee problems..

In Badminton, stamina still rules.

[badMania]

Maria trails 7-12 right now. Still no improvement from 2-7 score just now...

[cheeyf]

Malaysia took a gamble letting KKK and WPT played two events and now lost XD and use up tremendous energy ... I hope this won't cost us the MD and WD match later on.

lyd/lhy oso play both
so is even
haha

[jasonmarc]

JYS is matching LCW in 2nd game,....LCW have to play rubber game to let KKK more time to rest.......

[copadh]

come on, maria...

[copadh]

you should sent the shuttlecock over the net, maria...

[d3sm0nd]

may i noe wat racquet is KKK using jus now?:confused:

any1 can answer me :(:(:(

[ctjcad]

INA fans chanting "Ma-ria! Ma-ria!"..Sayaka still running & hopping like an Energizer bunny..*dum, dum, dum*..more errors from Maria..

Maria looks like she's about ready to collapse on the court..Look at that attack & pace from Sayaka..

[copadh]

MKY 15: 17 Sayaka

come on, girl, close the gap...

[copadh]

magic shot from Maria, 16-17...

[kwun]

i cannot tell if Maria is mentally in control, or just struggling to stay in the game. flashes of brilliance and flashes of unforced errors.

[copadh]

perfect defense...but again, sent the ball to net...16-18

nice drop shot, 17-18...

[Krisna]

17-18 Maria.... uuuh this is a tough game... All mental now...

[Tjun Tjun]

any1 can answer me :(:(:(

He was playing with a losing racquet.....:D:D:D

[ctjcad]

Sayaka just seems to be full of energy...And she jumps up & down after Maria made an error, smashed into the net..

[copadh]

i cannot tell if Maria is mentally in control, or just struggling to stay in the game. flashes of brilliance and flashes of unforced errors.

perfectly said, Mr Kwun, she looks very tired...

well...need two errors from Sato to tied the point...19-19...

follow by the net... 20-19
come on, girl, one more point...

[badMania]

Maria manages to level it at 19-19! 2 more pts for both players to take this match.

[badMania]

Match pt for Maria at 20-19!

[Krisna]

HABISIN HABISIN HABISIN!!! Go MAria!

[picachu01]

very excite! 18-19

[ctjcad]

i cannot tell if Maria is mentally in control, or just struggling to stay in the game. flashes of brilliance and flashes of unforced errors.
..the latter..She's surviving because Sayaka is making errors (inexperienced)..
Sayaka's style reminds me a lot of Xu haiwen's style (her height esp.)..

[Krisna]

MARIA wins it for INA!!!! 2-0!!!!! :D

[simonlovers]

Yeees!!!
Maria Win!!!!!!!!!!!
Nice job Sayaka Sato..
:)

[ssertere]

MARIAAAA.... YOU ROCKS!!!!

you almost make me get a heart attack everytime you play...

CONGRATULATION....

[badMania]

It was another amazing comeback from Maria Kristin Yulianti as she wins it in 3 games: 18-21, 21-11, 21-19! 2-0 to INA. Still, I think it's safer to field Adriyanti Firdasari tomorrow.

Sony Dwi Kuncoro should wrap it up for INA in the next match!

[huangkwokhau]

Phew!! sport jantung....

[badMania]

17-18 Maria.... uuuh this is a tough game... All mental now...

We can all relax again now.....:D

[picachu01]

Congratulation INA, Maria is so strong! good player!

[badMania]

Phew!! sport jantung....

Hey, u are online!

[huangkwokhau]

Maria is really a queen of 3 sets and making us heart attack.....

[huangkwokhau]

Hey, u are online!
:D:D....yep..stayed in hotel here and will play baddy...hm..almost 5 weeks, I have not played baddy yet..hope I wont get tortured...:D

[ganny]

What is the score of MAS v KOR???????

Just seen the reply Thanks

[Han]

Is getting better, now KKK/TBH vs LYD/JJS ...

[ssertere]

Agree, Firda is more prepared. Let Maria rest a day before the match against China...

[badMania]

As expected, MAS levels it 1-1 too. The next match will be very crucial: Koo Kien Keat/Tan Boon Heong vs Jung Jae Sung/Lee Yong Dae. The first titanic match of the day! A win for KOR will more or less seal the tie for them, whereas, if MAS wins this one, WS should be the decider match!

[ctjcad]

..Maria should've and could've wrapped it up in 2 games (she should've wrapped up the 1st game but her errors cost her the game)..On the other hand, Sayaka should've and could've wrapped up the 3rd game..IMO, Maria escaped this one..

[kwun]

Maria, living at the edge. she was trailing so much in the 3rd, game (12-17) that people starts to wonder if she pull it back. but she did, taking 9 points vs. Sato's 2 pts.

one has to wonder if Maria really had the calculations in her mind how much she has grinded Sato physically and mentally to achieve that feat. Sato was noticably more tired at the end and while she worked as hard as she did, Maria was mostly lucid on how each rally is playing out.

[kwun]

OMG, is that Wei Yili commentating? she looks skinnier and better than when she is on the badminton court.

[badMania]

Agree, Firda is more prepared. Let Maria rest a day before the match against China...

Well, she will get a 3 days rest before INA plays CHN on Thursday. Fielding Maria against CHN should be the reasonable strategy.

[Bao]

Thanks for updating score, now i'm on journey, only can surf this forum to know the result, thankyou

[kwun]

OMG, is that Wei Yili commentating? she looks skinnier and better than when she is on the badminton court.

my mistake, i mean Zhu Lin.

[badMania]

Sony Dwi Kuncoro vs Kenichi Tago. As a biased INA fan, I bet my money on Sony :p

[huangkwokhau]

Agree, Firda is more prepared. Let Maria rest a day before the match against China...
against, INA should field Lindaweni...let her play..

[scherzando]

Are they showing MS INA vs JPN now instead of the MD MAS vs KOR? Seriously?

[robin7]

PHI 3 : 1 RSA

18 PAW pts for everyone!

[badMania]

against, INA should field Lindaweni...let her play..

Well, it depends on what's the strategy against CHN. To test them using a mix of 1st and 2nd team players or to let the entire 2nd team play.

[Krisna]

Well, she will get a 3 days rest before INA plays CHN on Thursday. Fielding Maria against CHN should be the reasonable strategy.

Yes, I agree! :cool: Firda is enough to deliver us a point against ENG... Err... will Firda play Elizabeth Cann then? :confused: Well maybe... :p


Hey, does anyone know why Japan fielded Sayaka Sato when there are tons of other Japanese players with better skills, rank, and experience than her?!? :confused: Doesn't make sense...

[huangkwokhau]

Yes, I agree! :cool: Firda is enough to deliver us a point against ENG... Err... will Firda play Elizabeth Cann then? :confused: Well maybe... :p


Hey, does anyone know why Japan fielded Sayaka Sato when there are tons of other Japanese players with better skills, rank, and experience than her?!? :confused: Doesn't make sense...
actually Sato is one of the best WS now.....she beat hirose or even Goto....plus goto and hirose are not coming..may be Japan thinks there is no points to play their best against INA...

[kwun]

what makes no sense is how i am up at the middle of night watching SC even though i have been sick all day with some flu and totally tired, teary eyed and a headache.

[badMania]

Again, Sony takes time to get himself into the game.

[huangkwokhau]

what makes no sense is how i am up at the middle of night watching SC even though i have been sick all day with some flu and totally tired, teary eyed and a headache.
hope it is not SWINE flu..or better get some WINE to cure the flu....it works....:D:D

[kwun]

Again, Sony takes time to get himself into the game.

i agree. looking at his footwork, he doesn't seem to be taking the game very seriously at the moment.

[ctjcad]

...

..it doesn't make sense either when they fielded their younger MD pair and now Tago..

My gut says, because they know they probably won't have a chance and prefer to give their youngsters a chance to play..

[badMania]

First time Sony leads...13-12, but it's now 13-13.

[ctjcad]

what makes no sense is how i am up at the middle of night watching SC even though i have been sick all day with some flu and totally tired, teary eyed and a headache.

Maria said Sato has very strong stamina and not easy to make her tired. She lost control in 3rd game. She looks so relief after the match

[badMania]

My gut says, because they know they probably won't have a chance and prefer to give their youngsters a chance to play..

Perhaps.....they will probably just want to concentrate on facing ENG and the playoff.

[kwun]

thanks for the update. she made it too close for comfort.

Ooo, then maybe INA should do the same when we face CHN... ;):D

[badMania]

My preferred line-up against ENG tomorrow:
MD -- either Bona Septano/Mohd Ahsan or Rian Sukmawan/Yonathan Suryatama Dasuki
WS -- Adriyanti Firdasari
MS -- Sony Dwi Kuncoro
WD -- Nitya Krishinda Maheswari/Greysia Polii
XD -- Nova Widianto/Liliyana Natsir (no choice)

[kwun]

anyone can answer wat racquet is KKK/TBH using now?:confused:

sorry, i don't think anyone cares... :confused: :cool:

Simon should be up against Andrew Smith.....

[d3sm0nd]

thx for ur answer...is like better u dont answer ;)

[badMania]

hmm....nt the pro of cares or nt,if som1 noe jus answer me lol :cool:

It will definitely helps if u write PROPER ENGLISH!

[badMania]

Sony Dwi Kuncoro takes the first set 21-17 and is now leading 2-0.

[kwun]

It will definitey helps if u write PROPER ENGLISH!

agreed. how do you expect others to help u if we cannot even comprehend that sentence.

[kwun]

SDK finally woke up from his morning nap. :)

[waile]

malaysian pair is so jaded, responds are slow, and they kept allowing korean pair to attack...?????

[d3sm0nd]

It will definitely helps if u write PROPER ENGLISH!

my education nt as well as u guys ;)

[badMania]

Simon should be up against Andrew Smith.....

Well, he should have enough skills to the beat the "very temperamental & easily angered" Andrew Smith :D

[waile]

they attack one rally then they are happy to just defend the next... hmmm?????

[jasonmarc]

If KKK lost this one, he will be the one who lost 2 point for MAS in today's match against Kor...LYD will be the hero.......won 2 points for his team....

[kwun]

my education nt as well as u guys ;)

that's a poor excuse. i am sure they teach elementary English in Malaysia. go ask your teacher.

[kwun]

on a completely random note, Brandon just rolled off the bed and bumped his head on the floor. maybe he is eager to come watch the SC with me also.

[eaglehelang]

malaysian pair is so jaded, responds are slow, and they kept allowing korean pair to attack...?????

Errr, KKK just played a 3 setter in XD half hour bf this match, two sets ending in duece. Although LYD was also playing that XD match - Msia player stamina wouldnt be as good as Korea, esp LYD.;)

[badMania]

Jung Jae Sung/Lee Yong Dae will wrap it up in straight-sets unless there's a miracle.

[kwun]

huge smash by SDK send Tago flying towards the sideline.

i think SDK wants to ends this quick. :)

[ctjcad]

SDK finally woke up from his morning nap. :)
..i notice the commentator just woke up, too (didn't hear him for quite some time)..maybe a mic problem..

Maaan, i'm very interested in watching whatever match the crowd is cheering for..

[badMania]

The MS match appears to be quite boring??? Not much action like the previous one.

[badMania]

MAS 1 KOR 2 as Jung Jae Sung/Lee Yong Dae take it home 21-16, 21-17. It's now or never for MAS as they face a must-win match to save the tie.

[d3sm0nd]

that's a poor excuse. i am sure they teach elementary English in Malaysia. go ask your teacher.

even they teach my parents dont have $$$ for me to study...i start working wen i was 13 :cool:

[badMania]

Finally, Sony takes it 11-9 to the break. 10 more pts to end this tie.

[eaglehelang]

If KKK lost this one, he will be the one who lost 2 point for MAS in today's match against Kor...LYD will be the hero.......won 2 points for his team....

DUnno who is the one go & arrange XD play 1st, MD play 3rd match. WS could have played 3rd. KKK sure cannot outlast LYD(or rather Korea) on the stamina part, although KKK is supposed fittest Msia MD.

[huangkwokhau]

Hope Laurent nd Daphne could win this match....

[Han]

Now the pressure is really on Mew Cho, I hope she can keep the our hope alive.

[waile]

hmm, KKK is off form today and it is a bad day to be off form. sigh... WMC is unpredictable still after coming off an long layoff... is malaysia's fate sealed already?

[STfang]

koo/tan lost...
sad sad...

[kwun]

Hope Laurent nd Daphne could win this match....

GO Lauren/Daphne!!!!

i have been watching these two girls play and train since they were only 12!

[badMania]

DUnno who is the one go & arrange XD play 1st, MD play 3rd match. WS could have played 3rd. KKK sure cannot outlast LYD(or rather Korea) on the stamina part, although KKK is supposed fittest Msia MD.

Under normal circumstances, XD will be played first with WD and MD played as the last 2 matches. But this year, they change it to MD first and XD last.

The arrangement of the KOR vs MAS match is certainly quite weird as they could have played MD WD WS MS XD.

[badMania]

GO Lauren/Daphne!!!!

i have been watching these two girls play and train since they were only 12!

U sound like Krisna just now :eek:

[eaglehelang]

that's a poor excuse. i am sure they teach elementary English in Malaysia. go ask your teacher.

Cool, kwun, cool, drink some ginseng tea.:D He's using sms shortforms, and he's not the only one, there's another BCer who uses sms shortform in BC for some time. ANd that member didnt get chided for it.

[kwun]

even they teach my parents dont have $$$ for me to study...i start working wen i was 13 :cool:

simple things like a comma and fullstop and spelling properly ("when", not "wen") makes a huge difference. i am sure that was taught before 13.

[Jessica]

Another dissapointed performance by Malaysian pair.A lot of unforced error by Mas pair.KKK was moving slow on court and TBH seem like dreaming on court.Haiz...Mas will be losing to Korea after losing the MD tie..

[narnia]

JJS/LYD vs. KKK/TBH

They all showed what Mens' Doubles is in Badminton!

Great match! :)

[jasonmarc]

Errr, KKK just played a 3 setter in XD half hour bf this match, two sets ending in duece. Although LYD was also playing that XD match - Msia player stamina wouldnt be as good as Korea, esp LYD.;)

Then, WPT also going to lose.......as MAS dont have Korean Jinsen....:D:D

[ctjcad]

MAS 1 KOR 2 as Jung Jae Sung/Lee Yong Dae take it home 21-16, 21-17. It's now or never for MAS as they face a must-win match to save the tie.
..on a related note, get ready to hear more match review from narnia..;)
And yes, JJS & LYD are back as if they never left..:)

[Choyonn]

hmm, KKK is off form today and it is a bad day to be off form. sigh... WMC is unpredictable still after coming off an long layoff... is malaysia's fate sealed already?

LOL...be prepared for yet another "dominance" from the dynamic duo ;)

[waile]

so far it looks not bad, but what are our chances even if it goes to WD to decide the tie? though we r world no 1 there, but everyone knows our strength against LKW/LHJ...

[d3sm0nd]

simple things like a comma and fullstop and spelling properly ("when", not "wen") makes a huge difference. i am sure that was taught before 13.

:eek: oh no shortform allow here ar..so soli den :)

[ctjcad]

Anyone know which group match will be shown next??..I hope it'll be more exciting than this..:cool:

..who dat member??..who?? who??..

[jasonmarc]

I think he was tired... he was slower and made more mistakes....

If this is the case, then MAS team have made a big mistake by playing KKK in XD....to faced LYD/JHJ which the chances of winning is low......:mad:

[narnia]

And yes, JJS & LYD are back as if they never left..:)

:D:D ..must be Limsy........:p

[huangkwokhau]

Sony seems taking time to play this match....21-16..okay INA got 3-0....

[badMania]

INA 3 JPN 0 as Sony Dwi Kuncoro takes it in straight-sets 21-17, 21-16.

[waile]

though WMC looks a bit better than the korean girl, but it feels like if she were to meet stronger (power play) player, she would wilt...

[narnia]

I guess WMC must have been practicing with LCW. I see similar footworks. :)

[simonlovers]

Shendy/Meilina vs Maeda/Seutsuna....hmm...
it is a bonus if Shendy/Meilina can win this match...

[eaglehelang]

KKK/TBYH never play well in team event,....like last Thomas Cup....they also dreaming thru the matches againts Kor and Chn......:cool:

That time(2008) & 2007 Sudirman was more of TBH dreaming.
In reply to your other post, WPT got more time to rest as hers is last match but they are not expected to win vs LHJ/LKW, skill wise.

[badMania]

:eek:Hmm...Are you sure this is a great match???Korea pair was dominating from the first till the end..:rolleyes::rolleyes:

That's why he said its an excellent match because the dominating KOR pair was in such dominance form ;) It will be a huge disappointment if they don't win the World Championships this year :rolleyes:

[narnia]

:eek:Hmm...Are you sure this is a great match???Korea pair was dominating from the first till the end..:rolleyes::rolleyes:

You know what?

You can't say the word here, even though it is true. lol :)

[waile]

the irony, Korean good at doubles, Malaysians at singles, but at the end of the day, it would only mean we will lose in tournament events like this... coz there will always be three doubles and 2 singles...hehe

[narnia]

That's why he said its an excellent match because the dominating KOR pair was in such dominance form ;) It will be a huge disappointment if they don't win the World Championships this year :rolleyes:

How's the knee of Kido? Is it okay this time? :)

[Jessica]

If this is the case, then MAS team have made a big mistake by playing KKK in XD....to faced LYD/JHJ which the chances of winning is low......:mad:
Yup...I think the stamina is which KKK should work on if he want do well in both MD and XD...He really look exhausted in the MD just now and miss many simple shots while LYD still look very fresh and focus despite both playing in the earlier hectic XD.:rolleyes:

[vching]

Woah lucky i checked tournament software today! Had no idea Sudirman cup started.

Well guys, I'm back for the tournament before dissapearing back into med school ;)

[eaglehelang]

:D:D ..must be Limsy........:p
Nope... it's a female member, unless you still mistaken LImsy for a female ....
And Limsy doesnt post that way, his is more of "direct translation from Chinese" problem.:D



..who dat member??..who?? who??..
See WPT/CEH thread, you will know. Or scroll back a few pages in this thread :p

[ctjcad]

the irony, Korean good at doubles, Malaysians at singles, but at the end of the day, it would only mean we will lose in tournament events like this... coz there will always be three doubles and 2 singles...hehe

Mean while, CCTV5 is telecasting the match between WMC and HHY........

[eaglehelang]

Hmmm, where's jutawin with the cute icons? That should make things more interesting

[kwun]

the Li-Ning commercial with the Chinese team going on a battle is cool and cheesy at the same time...

[LingLing]

CCTV5 is showing Malaysia VS KOR

[narnia]

WMC looks in a good form. On the contrary, I see HHY having been shrinking in recent tournaments... :)

[Han]

For Malaysia to beat Korea, MD and the key which KKK/TBH failed to deliver. Surprisingly, Mew Cho won game 1 realtively easy and hope she can win WS and force match 5. I do think Malaysia WD can give a good fight to the Koreans, should be a close match.

[kwun]

what happened to WMC. her footwork is even more awkward than before.

[badMania]

How's the knee of Kido? Is it okay this time? :)

It's okay really if Kido is still not 100% fit. As u said before, Hendra Setiawan can always partner with other players like Mohd Ahsan :) We have an abundance of smashers remember? ;)

I guess INA fans are also prepared for the split up of Kido/Hendra if Kido's injury takes a long time to heal. At least they have won the World Championships and the Beijing Olympics Gold Medals....unlike the dominating KOR pair who has right now only the All-England title ;) They will have a long wait (till the London Olympics 2012) before they can truly say they surpass Kido/Hendra's achievements ;) Be patient bro ;)

[ctjcad]

LOL...be prepared for yet another "dominance" from the dynamic duo ;)

LOL Thanks guys. Enjoy the games! :)
..that thread has been quiet for a couple months or so now..it's about time to jumpstart it back..

Is madbad awake??..Wake up, madbad! Hwang Hye Youn needs your support as she is trailing WMC!!..

[kwun]

Lauren/Daphne took 2nd set 22-20. that was close!

[LingLing]

Does anyone know other results by far?

[ctjcad]

hey madbad, your heart-throb is on the court;)
..maybe CCTV5 purposely switched the broadcast to show HHY??..:confused:

Thanks for the info about Kido.

JJS won't play until the next Olympics. LYD should find another partner to achieve his another Gold Medal. :)

Women's matches are really boring compared with men's

Yeah, but you can stand it if you are willing to learn something from their great footworks. :)

hahaha, yes, it reminded me of the video game 'missile command':D

[hoiboy79]

Lauren/Daphne took 2nd set 22-20. that was close!

How'd you find out about the final score? I can see them playing right next to WMC and HHY though.

[LingLing]

Do you have a live scoreboard or something?

[narnia]

FYI, basically HHY has a very good stamina. I think that's making a difference now.

[badMania]

Thanks for the info about Kido.

In that case, I am sorry to say that JJS/LYD won't be able to surpass Kido/Hendra's achievements :mad: So sad to hear that really :mad:

[LingLing]

The Malaysian girl seems so tired now,is the last match women's doubles if tied at 2-2?

[hoiboy79]

Aww I think Daphne and Lauren lost..
