Its seem XXF still not yet fully awake..She going to lost the first set...Uncle Wong being dragged to the decider game...

DairyRon

08-12-2009, 06:08 AM

oh my... XXF lead back the score !

whack_d_net

08-12-2009, 06:09 AM

From h2h record, if i'm not wrong firda always lose to LL, rite?
LL often caught her off-guard
Hope Firda take a lesson or two
IMO, she needs to be more calm and workin on her footwork+court coverage :rolleyes:

simonlovers

08-12-2009, 06:10 AM

Firda....ayo firda,,,

DairyRon

08-12-2009, 06:11 AM

cool thanks for that information

Am most impressed with Ai Goto, if she had the height of her coach Kanako Yonekura, she'd be even better.

jasonmarc

08-12-2009, 06:16 AM

Been told that a quite draft but in middle court is not that much..according to player...dont know which one is mid court

Could it because of the air conditional system.............?

eaglehelang

08-12-2009, 06:17 AM

Its seem XXF still not yet fully awake..She going to lost the first set...Uncle Wong being dragged to the decider game...

It does seem our uncle WCH decided to let go of 2nd set to focus his energy in rubber ;)

eaglehelang

08-12-2009, 06:20 AM

And Korea's CHo/Yoo just beat the Japanese K & K in straight sets! I thought this Japanese would have been able to go far since their performance is better than Sakamoto/Ikeda.

jasonmarc

08-12-2009, 06:20 AM

Looks like Uncle Wong is going to lose also...........

jasonmarc

08-12-2009, 06:21 AM

13 - 10 from 9 - 0 .....WCH buck up..........

Tony/Bach is really good to win WC for the 2nd time now....impressive

badMania

08-12-2009, 07:13 AM

I don't think Bona/Ahsan can win today. INA pairs (except for Kido/Hendra) have been having problems facing CHN pairs, especially Fu/Cai.

Jagdpanther

08-12-2009, 07:13 AM

Oh, c'mon, Bona/Ahsan. Throw all you've got!

They are certainly not World Champions for nothing.....up next is the formidable Boe/Mogensen.

Looking at the draw, it's likely the DOMINATING Jung/Lee will have to get past 2 CHN pairs Shen/He, then Guo/Xu, before they entertain either Boe/Mogensen or Koo/Tan. Fu/Cai will surely await the winner in the Final.

I disagree with your bias views of things. Jorgensen, when I last saw him play, impressed me. PSH has not been very good lately - something is wrong with him.

Park's failure is amazing.
Li mao should be fired from the Korean team, for mentally disintegrating his own player by training LCW.

sure... he helps LCW out of personal mean to revenge on LYB... but mess up his paid job as Korean coach... if LCW does win LD with his help, LM is not fair to his Korean team.... a team coach should concentrate on this own team, particulary the last 2 weeks prior to a major competition...

and from this point of view, LCW was also not doing something fair to the Korean team players, spared some of their coach's time and distracted their coach's concentration on his own team out of his selfish personal pursuit... :confused::mad:

u must know, korean players surely do have some benifit too when training and sparring with the current wr1

... if it is a month earlier, yes... but not 10-14 days prior to the WC..

... but for professional players preparing for a serious major competition, the last 1-2 weeks are not for training and sparring with competitive trainers, but play less and take a balance between training and rest to build up the physical strength and concentrate on consolidating his own form, under the close monitoring of his OWN COACH.

... in this case, if LM was really serious in giving LCW coaching, then surely his attention to Korean players were distracted.(this is what I said unfair to the Korean team who does hire and pay LM)... if LM was not serious in giving LCW coaching (which i don't think is the case), what was the point LCW trained with him and said really benefited from that???

therefore, LCW owe Korean team... as said before, if he really want to benefit from LM's coach and be fair to the Korean team, he should hire LM directly, disconnect LM's coaching job with Korean team; or do that much earlier, not just 10-14 days (which was a critical moment in Korean team's preparation) before the WC.

... btw, I don't think LCW was really interested in training with the Korean players, everyone knows this is not his very purpose...

george@chongwei

08-12-2009, 11:42 AM

I dont think LM coaching attention towards the korean players will be distracted prior to lcw's 10 days training in Korea. LCW was only there for some light training and i'm sure he won't be disrupting the korean players focus during training. in fact , i think most of the korean players including park sung hwan, surely will make good use of this good opportunity by training and sparring with him.. not everybody will be having this kind of chance;)..Even Psh also didnt complain anything about it, but he eventually like the presence of the wr1 in their training camp too;)

We have two Estonian players playing right now.
Never heard Estonia and badminton together before. :D:D

Best of luck to both Kati and Raul!!:D

This is the 3rd WC for Raul Must after 2006 and 2007 WC. He played in Germany and sometimes trained in Sweden

How can there be a breeze in the stadium ?

Been told that a quite draft but in middle court is not that much..according to player...dont know which one is mid court

Could it because of the air conditional system.............?

Mostly it's from air condition. It's circle shaped stadium, court 1 and 2 baseline to baseline on far left, court 3 and 4 side by side in the middle, and court 5 and 6 are on far right. According to players draft on middle court is normal, but in court 1, 2, 5, 6, are 'not easy tot control'.
Been told that during India Open the air condition was being shut off in some matches.

..i also read that the organizer actually turned the A/C ducts/air flow upward towards the ceiling..

slightly off subject here but how can there be a breeze in the stadium ?:confused:
..the A/C draft problem was mentioned even before the tourney started, in the "News" thread. Basically they were still figuring out how to provide the best air circulation in the stadium for both the players & spectators, without inhibiting the actual matches. One of the original plans was to turn on & turn off the A/C system every 3-4 hours.

Wow...Tony/Howard crushed the JPN pair...19pts total allowed in 2 sets!
..perhaps there was just too much respect or intimidation @ the net by Tony...:cool:
..in the 2007 WC edition, Bach & Malaythong only went to R32. However, Gunawan and Candra W., whom Tony was partnering for abt 2 yrs as an independent pair, went all the way to the QF Rd. where they lost to their ex-compatriots & eventual MD champions, Kido & Setiawan.

They are certainly not World Champions for nothing.....up next is the formidable Boe/Mogensen.

Looking at the draw, it's likely the DOMINATING Jung/Lee will have to get past 2 CHN pairs Shen/He, then Guo/Xu, before they entertain either Boe/Mogensen or Koo/Tan. Fu/Cai will surely await the winner in the Final.
For this yr's edition, without Kido & Setiawan in the mix, i see both Tony & Howard going at least to the QF Rd. if not to the Semifinals. With a tiny chance of going to the Final Rd. and winning it all. Yes, i won't be surprised if they beat Boe & Mogensen in the R16 & advance to the QF Rd.
You've still got basically one of the best front court players in the game partnering a player who is younger than Wijaya. Who knows, we might see a Tony vs. LYD duel in the Semis...;)

Well, given Kido/Hendra's absence this year, the World's Best Pair better win the World Championships this year :cool: God forbid them losing in an important Major yet again :o
..as i mentioned before, i expect no less than a Final appearance for LYD & JJS, as they played in the Final Rd, 2 yrs ago. A World title should be theirs to lose...

I disagree with your bias views of things. Jorgensen, when I last saw him play, impressed me. PSH has not been very good lately - something is wrong with him. Don't shift the blame to LM -- that is evil.:rolleyes: Learn how to respect an upcoming player rather than cruxify someone you know nothing about.
..i concur. PSH is a very inconsistent player.

A few more thoughts from Day 3 actions:
- Tough lost for WMC. But Ai Goto seemed to be really prepared.
- Jan OJ's win over PSH wasn't really a surprised considering his great improvement over the last yr. PSH, on the other hand, IMO, has still a lot to learn. He better improve fast because he might be reaching his peak or close to reaching his peak soon.
- Xing Aiying also, IMO, has reached her peak. She just seemed to always struggle and can't pass a tougher foe, even for a European standard player.
- Too bad our JR & LP couldn't pass their opponents. Perhaps JR has been spending too much time in BC rather than training??....;)

I doubt much "coaching" from LM occured during LCW's visit. That would be like a slap in the face of Misbun.

There is not much gap between Jorgensen and PSH. The result is not a surprise.

... if it is a month earlier, yes... but not 10-14 days prior to the WC..

... but for professional players preparing for a serious major competition, the last 1-2 weeks are not for training and sparring with competitive trainers, but play less and take a balance between training and rest to build up the physical strength and concentrate on consolidating his own form, under the close monitoring of his OWN COACH.

... in this case, if LM was really serious in giving LCW coaching, then surely his attention to Korean players were distracted.(this is what I said unfair to the Korean team who does hire and pay LM)... if LM was not serious in giving LCW coaching (which i don't think is the case), what was the point LCW trained with him and said really benefited from that???

therefore, LCW owe Korean team... as said before, if he really want to benefit from LM's coach and be fair to the Korean team, he should hire LM directly, disconnect LM's coaching job with Korean team; or do that much earlier, not just 10-14 days (which was a critical moment in Korean team's preparation) before the WC.

... btw, I don't think LCW was really interested in training with the Korean players, everyone knows this is not his very purpose...

Chen rallies to win, Park ousted in badminton

By Manoj Vatsyayana (AFP) – 8 hours ago

HYDERABAD, India — World number two Chen Jin of China faced some anxious moments before overcoming Indian Parupalli Kashyap in the second round of the World badminton championships here on Wednesday.

Unseeded Kashyap, cheered by the home crowd, surprised the second-seeded Chinese when he bagged the opening game but then failed to match his opponent to lose 14-21, 21-10, 21-7 in 53 minutes.

Denmark's Jan O Jorgensen pulled off the only major upset in the men's section when he downed eighth-seeded Korean Park Sung Hwan 21-16, 17-21, 21-15.

Favourites Lee Chong Wei of Malaysia, Indonesian Taufik Hidayat, Denmark's Peter Gade and Chinese Lin Dan also made it to the men's singles third round, all winning in straight games.

Big players advanced into the women's singles third round, with world number one Zhou Mi of Hong Kong, Chinese Wang Lin, Wang Yihan, Xie Xingfang and Lu Lan, Indian Saina Nehwal and Pi Hongyan winning in straight games.

But there were minor upsets, with Japanese Ai Goto beating 14th-seeded Malaysian Wong Mew Choo and Thailand's Salakjit Ponsana rallying to down 16th-seeded Judith Meulendijks of the Netherlands.

Top-seeded Lee, seeking his maiden title at the championships, posted an easy 21-11, 21-14 win over Nigerian Ola Fagbemi.

"I don't think I was at my 100 per cent best today, but so far so good," said world number one Lee.

"I think my next match (against Tien Minh Nguyen) will be tough because I have lost to him recently in the Singapore Open."

Vietnam's Nguyen, seeded 14th, reached the third round with a 21-14, 21-16 win over Brice Leverdez of France.

Zhou, who got a first-round bye, needed just 27 minutes to beat New Zealand's Chan Ky Michelle 21-11, 21-15.

"I am still trying to adapt to the conditions," said Zhou, who represented China before qualifying to play for Hong Kong in 2007.

"I also quit the game for some time and then returned to achieve the number one ranking. I am happy with what I have achieved. It will be another achievement if I win the title here."

Zhou, like Lee, is aiming for a maiden World title.

Third-seeded Gade beat Japan's Sho Sasaki 21-11, 21-12 while fourth-seeded Hidayat recorded a 21-17, 21-15 win over Mathieu Lo Ying Ping of France.

"It was easier than I expected and everything is going according to the plan," said Gade.

"I controlled the match but I have to be at my best in the remaining matches. I had a good run-up to the championships and I practised very hard."

Sixth-seeded Nehwal opened her campaign with a 21-10, 21-17 win over Russian Anastasia Prokopenko.

"Right now I am very happy with my fitness. I didn't feel tired, but I am going to be tested in tomorrow's match," said Nehwal, who will now meet 10th-seeded Bulgarian Petya Nedelcheva.

"The fact that it was my first match after recovering from chicken pox, it did play on my mind before I started. But luckily it wasn't a major problem.

"Expectations will be there, but as a player you will have to focus on the game. Of course, some tension was there in my mind, but I am happy I won the match."

Fifth-seeded Xie, looking for a record third singles title, won when her Bulgarian opponent Linda Zechiri retired after feeling unwell in the second game. She was leading 23-21, 18-10.
