Anyone have the results of the MDs? In the SF, KKK/TBH to meet CCM/CCE and LWW/CTF to meet Goh WS/Vountus surprise winners over the fuzzys.

[markchan]

KKK/TBH lost in straight sets to CCM/CCE:eek:. LWW/CTF needed 3 sets to beat GWS/Vountus..

MS : LCW will vs Hafiz in finals
WS : WMC will vs Lydia Cheah in the finals.
XD : CPS/Goh LY will vs Fairuz/WPT in the finals.

CHONG WEI, MEW CHOO REACH MINI OLYMPICS BADMINTON FINALS


Bernama - Thursday, July 30KUALA LUMPUR, July 29 (Bernama) -- National shuttlers Datuk Lee Chong Wei and Wong Mew Choo reached their respective men's and women's finals in the inaugural Mini Olympics badminton tournament at the Juara Stadium of the Bukit Kiara Sports Centre here today.

Their journeys to the finals were just walks in the park as they were against less prominent opponents in the quarter-final and semi-final matches.

Top seed and World No. 1 Chong Wei, who was this year's Malaysian Open and Malaysian Open Grand Prix Gold champion, beat Mohd Roslin Hashim in straight sets, 21-15, 21-9, in a 20-minute quarter-final match.

In the semi-final, Chong Wei, who was the Beijing Olympics silver medallist, outclassed World No. 30 Sairul Amar Ayob, also in straight sets, 21-15, 21-15.

In the final tomorrow, Chong Wei will meet Muhd Hafiz Hashim who created an upset in the other semi-final by outpacing second-seeded Wong Choong Hann 21-19, 19-21, 21-18. In the quarter-final match earlier, Hafiz, who is World No. 37, defeated Kuah Beng Hong in straight sets 21-9, 21-14.

thx:)...I did check before but i missed this thread.......

Hmm, shouldn't the WC entrants be practising and preparing instead of risking injury on this low profile tournament? Am i'm thinking like a LYB?:D

[Oldhand]

An 'Olympic' medal might help to boost everyone's confidence :p

[ezpersonal]

i think im going to watch later, free as a bird

[jasonmarc]

KKK/TBH cant even win over CCE/CCM............how to play in WC...........

Dont know what they thinking,.....what they did in this long period of WC preparation time..........???

[Loh]

I don't see HH's name in the WC list but to beat WCH here when the latter should be well-prepared for the WC speaks well of HH. (Maybe his new coach Hendrawan has given HH new hope.) Even Lee Tsuen Seng will appear in the forthcoming WC and if HH should defeat LCW today, then we can say bye-bye to LCW at the WC. Surely X Ball will not want this to happen. :rolleyes:

KKK and TBH have also disappointed and this just won't do for a pair which is second seed for the WC. And this goes the same for the 8th seed Fuzzy pair! :o At least the uncles, who are twelve seed for the WC, showed that they are serious and they must again demonstrate this quality by winning the final today. ;)

And the WC is barely a week from now! It doesn't spell too good for MAS. :(

[SHLAU]

I read today's online newspaper "star" which said "MH showed more urgency in his game to defeat WCH". Funny, why not use the word "improvement" rather than "more urgency"?:rolleyes:

That's easy, most of the time Habis play like **** because he is just too lazy to move and to reach the shuttle early.

Beating WCH is no big deal. Saw his match last week against Boonsak and I must say his gameplay is unimpressive. Movement even is slower now, clear is too low that give Boonsak many half court smash, was totally beaten at the net in game 1.

That's why i feel sorry for Mas, represented by too many 'uncles' and retirees in WC........not a single back up manage to be in the WC team yet...still depending on those uncle......sigh :(

Absolutely agreed! No matter what we said about Mr YoYo. He is still the number 2 single for Malaysia. It is just pathetic.:(

[ctjcad]

A meaningless tournament................what's MSN thinking...?
...I hope BCers won't get worked up by the results from this tourney...;)

Heck, while we're at it, maybe they should hold a 2009 Mini World Championships-Malaysia, as a prelude to the upcoming WC..:cool:

[eaglehelang]

Ehem, the big shots wanted to have a mini OG, it benefits the other sports, but not sports like baddy or track cycling. The schedule had been changed for from June to July the sake of badminton, so, like it or not, the players have to participate.

[eaglehelang]

Uncle, if you havent noticed, KKK played XD semi at 3 pm then MD semi at 4 pm, lost both. Except for the 2 MD uncle pairs(who only played 1 dept while others played 2) and WPT/CEH, the rest of WC bound pairs didnt go very far. It could be they didnt go all out, since they have to go WC next week (like Rexy said in the press).

Hafiz did not qualify for WC, he was out of top 24.

[eaglehelang]

Results
MS : LCW won, beating Hafiz in 2 sets - shows again there's still big gap between LCW & other Msia MS
WS : WMC won, beating Lydia Cheah in 2 sets
MD : CCM/CCE won, beating CTF/LWW in 3 sets
WD : WPT/CEH won, beating CSC/WKW in 2 sets, also shows big gap between them & the young WD
XD : Fairuz/WPT won, beating CPS/GLY in 2 sets, a non WC bound pair won, haha

I'm glad that LCW won and he set a good example to all those going to the WC but who failed to win the finals at this meet.

Of course HH did not qualify for the WC but what he displayed here has put to shame those who qualified but did not perform to expectation. Hope it is a wake up call for all of them. The WC at Hyderabad must be lots more competitive and if they continue to show such lack luster display, they will be out sooner than expected.

I think KKK will also compete in both MD and XD at the WC and I wonder whether he has the stamina and focus to do well at both since he and his partner did rather poorly here.

We have heard enough of lame excuses but there is still a chance to prove us wrong - at the forthcoming WC. :D

THere's also WPT/CEH with WPt playing XD & WD, winning both. And WMC.
I wouldnt lose sleep over KKK/TBH's lost, or FUzzy pair or the other WC bound pairs that are playing 2 dept. They win kah, lose kah, have seen it all. All have played XD & doubles internationally.

Nothing great abt Hafiz reaching finals in a local tourney in which the prize is just a medal(seriously), those he beat did better than him in International stage, that's what counts.

Uncle, I thought you're Spore fan mah, why suddenly so concerned abt Msia players? ;)

PS : Remember the big hu ha when LCW lost to Roslin Hashim in TC stimulation in 2008? Then LCW beat LD in the tie vs China.:D

Well I just hope you're right and if the results turn out to be otherwise, there will be nothing else to blame.

I'm first a badminton fan and that's why I've been in this forum for such a long time! :D

If a Singaporean player is in competition, of course I will support him or her.

The word is not 'concern' here but 'interest' as badminton fans should be interested. I would have been concerned if players under my charge are not doing well without a good reason. ;)

[ants]

Its ok for KKK and the Uncles to lose now. Anyway its like a warmup and practice sessions for them. Im not that concern anyway with their performance this time.

[limsy]

haha
while others concerned about the wc player
i more happy that sonia get number 3:p

[koo_fan]

This mini olympics - mission accomplished i guess. Getting Malaysia fans worried about how Malaysia will fare in the upcoming WC.
KKK/TBH - really a heart attack la them both.

[eaglehelang]

Uncle, at this stage, nothing short of the stadium roof falling or bombings will surprise me anymore.;)

What I mean is : KKK/TBH has lost early rounds unexpectedly, lost to stratch pairs lah, then beat top pairs, etc,etc. Uncles CTF/LWW also lost in Thailand Open finals to CPS/LKW, just a week bf this mini OG, biasalah they all
Yes, yes, Rexy slightly concerned abt KKK/TBH but not happy with Fuzzy pair who lost in QF (and we've heard all this bf, all the hu ha)

I would not want to imagine. :p. sometimes i like them to be this way, they are not even a top seed to win. So, for MD, go go Korea and China. We Malaysians will send an underdog team.

Or they have forgotten that their MAS pair is very high second seed, meaning the organisers feel they can be MD WC, but just a rung lower than LCW the top seed in MS. I'm sure all MAS eyes will zoom in on these three players from the day they take to the Hyderabad courts. :rolleyes:

We will be having lots of fun here, but alas, you're right, we miss permuda, sigh! :(

[koo_fan]

hazirah~!dont be like this la!support the one you really want to support!gogo koo kien keat!kien keat boleh!malaysia boleh!I know you want to say that
Hey, support is still there. Sometimes they don't need the hua-hua words la. Extra pressure, don't u think? *wink*
I am convinced that they are going to give their best. that sound good enough to me.

and chris, what is wrong with "low expectation" approach? Sound ok, doesn't it?

[meiwei]

kkk/tbh lose over ccm is really suprising. couldn't believe it! i regret that i dint go. sigh. did any1 take pics of them? :)

[Jonc108]

An 'Olympic' medal might help to boost everyone's confidence :p

yes, congratulations to LCW, he finally got a OG champion... though a mini one...

LCW would get a WC as it is once a year now... but OG mah... once every 4 years... therefore got a mini one first... :D:D

[george@chongwei]

kkk/tbh lose over ccm is really suprising. couldn't believe it! i regret that i dint go. sigh. did any1 take pics of them? :)

George, how can you doubt my sincerity?

You may have crossed swords with Permuda many times before and may not have like it, but he is fun to be with "in the opposition".

I thought Permuda, being a keen soccer fan, will show up in Singapore when Liverpool played against our national team but no sign of this in the forum.

He is busy in the "political forum"? Which one, I don't find any in our BC website. Or do you mean he is involved in politics in MAS and make political speeches now and then? :D

[george@chongwei]

shhh...no politics here please:eek::D:D
