Lets just hope that Ina wont come empty handed for 3 times in a row.....

impressing result from vita/mona...go...go

go NTM... u can do that.!

My question is where are the TPE badminton supporters? :confused::confused: This is after all their national championship and they have 2 representatives in the finals. Haven't heard a peep from them. Only INA and MAS fans populate the threads relating to this tournament.

I saw the vita/mona semi finals game and thought Mona was very good. And also hope Uncle Wong will bad his 1st title in 6 years.

Come on Tien Minh, u can beat Uncle Wong Choong Han this afternoon. Uncle Woong has already run out of gas until now because he had to play 3 games in last match:D. Don't miss out this chane! he he:p

Wah... not bad for Ah Wong... all the best for all. ;)

Hmm,...a very evenly spread finals....

INA has 1.5 representatives
TPE has 2 representatives
Mas has 1, HK has 1, India has 1, Kor has 1, Vietnam has 1 and Chn has 1
USA has 0.5

I go to Chinese Taipei website directly, they just implemented
a Live Score reporting system since semi..:)

INA has 1.5 representatives

Mas has 1, HK has 1, India has 1, Kor has 1, Vietnam has 1 and Chn has 1
USA has 0.5

Good for the sport, of course. Hate to see every final game to be dominate by one country only...;)

I saw the vita/mona semi finals game and thought Mona was very good. And also hope Uncle Wong will bad his 1st title in 6 years.

Mona Santoso has a powerful smash, isn't she?

And also hope Uncle Wong will bad his 1st title in 6 years.

I think uncle Wong has experience, but Minh seems fitter and playing good badminton at the moment.

hahaha...... hope Harry Potter can do his country proud :)

Mona Santoso has a powerful smash, isn't she?

Mona Santoso also former INA player....?:rolleyes:

GDTV has it live. you can find it via PPTV.

IND 17-16 INA

first time i see the IND pair play. very good.

INDia 18-16 INA

Good for the sport, of course. Hate to see every final game to be dominate by one country only...;)
:DHe he, thats right. Everyone must agree with you except fans of ...:D:D:D

very close 1st set ind won. 2nd set india 3 indo 3

india 8 indo 11 2nd set

india-indo 9 - 12

india 12 indo 15

india /indo 14-15, 15-15

india leading16-15, 16-16,16-17

india 20 indo17

Mona Santoso also former INA player....?:rolleyes:

Hehe yeah, she's indonesian :)
She was in INA's pelatnas back then, played WS and then also WD and XD
But now she's representing USA's baddy association
That's why those 0.5 come from :p :p

sorry got everything mixed up india won 1st set 23 -21 2nd set 21 -18.

wow. when was the last time INA won a GP+ level event in XD? cool.

OMG Vita/Hendra lost :mad:

india won mixed doubles

should be a good confidence booster for the team. congrats.

what is the next event??

Jwala Gutta sponsor by Li Ning but use Yonex Arcsaber 9...

notice few other players too..

not used to typing and watching astro. computer one end tv the other end

I would love to see the home player Shaoh Chieh Cheng win WS this time....
Go Cheng!!!!

event sequence is :

WS
MS
WD
MD

US$6460 for indo XD only their 6 match together. india won US$11,560. The husband of the lady india XD was in the hotel and dare not watch live fearing he might jinx the match for her.
next match WS

they have smoke blowers and confettis, yet, their website sucks.

Live TV online? Where can we find the link?

Live TV online? Where can we find the link?

pplive streaming. look for GDTV.

korea girl Bae 25 yrs wearing a black ribbon on her shirt to honor the death of the former president of south Korea.

Wow..India on a roll..Saina Nehwal started it all by winning INO to be the first ever Indian lady to win a Super Series title and now this XD title..

This should do loads of good to Indian badminton!!!

TPE Cheng former junior champion unseeded and had to go through qualifying rounds

tpe/kor cheng/bae 2-2, 3-2

Mona Santoso also former INA player....?:rolleyes:

Mona joined in Pelatnas in very short time, 1999/2000 to 2001, kicked out by non technical reason.
She played in WS, if you have WJC 2000 Guangzhou's archive, her name in there as INA WS#1.

After that she played in WD represent Tangkas club.
In 2003 Jakarta Open I still watched her played in WD, paired with Andriani (Tangkas) beated Greysia Polii/Heny Budiman (Pelatnas).

tpe girl unusual hairstyle now 3-5

tpe girl already played 8 matches 5-6

Mona joined in Pelatnas in very short time, 1999/2000 to 2001, kicked out by non technical reason.
).

It is because she is a bit *BOYISH*? :confused:

kor girl in control tpe girl look weary no glow in face now 6-10

So there's only Vita/Mona the last hope for INA camp,
but i guess its an uphill task for them to overcome ZJW/YW
Hope they spring surprises like yesterday, though
But then again, beating 3 CHN pairs in a row is quite impossible
(Although Vita ever did it in China Masters SS 2oo7 with Butet)
Oh Noooo.... INA possibly left empty handed again!

a high backhand by bae went out 20-12, another deceptic net by cheng 21-12 now going rubber

cheng hair style

cheng and the loser bae

Go Vita/Mona :) :)

My congrats to NTM for winning the Chinese Taipei Open and for so appropriately returning the trust and support that Taiwanese sports equpment supplier Victor has given him. Would like to see him work harder to challenge the top ranks in the near future. :D

HKG MD, Wiratama/Wong grabbed first game 21-14.

Well, not good attitude. I love Chen Hung Ling and all player get to the final match, don't call him "Hary" pls!;)
Actually lots of BC'ers here already called him as taiwanese Harry Potter :p:p
But i'm sure it's just because of their resemblance, not to make fun of him
Same like we used to call PHY as Lady Pi or SDK as WYH's big brotha
Hehehe :):)

Ok, rightnow, the last set (game 3 in MD match), harry team will win for TPE!

__________________________________________________ ________________


I had rooted for Uncle WCH to win the 2009 YCTO means’ singles title but this was not to be as NTM was too good for him. He played a tactical match with low, flat returns, explosive smashes, excellent net plays and didn’t give WCH many chances to attack as he did against TH in his semi-final match. NTM is really a ‘dynamo’ and he has won two grand-prix titles so far this year and I can see him going on to win the super-series titles. Had WCH not been stretched to three games by TH, he might have a chance against NTM but I really doubt this.

Thank you very much, eaglehelang.

yep, a well deserved victory once again for NTM of Vietnam:)
as usual, his energetic on court and all of his hardwork and powerful smashes makes him a winner today;)
all hail Nguyen Tien Minh of Vietnam:cool:

Though I was rooting for Uncle Wong, but NTM was too good. Congrats to him.

I saw ms final at outside (chinese restaurent))Astro ,not in home... ,NTM deserve to win.cheers for him !

yes, it's great to see NTM having a decent attacking game. He had none a year ago. What a difference that makes. He might be in the top 6 MS with this second title. Wow, what a victor!
Disappointing for WCH but he can be proud of his gallant efforts. Keep thinking creatively about tactics, WCH.

congrates to all winner,include my fave,nguyen tien minh and chen hung ling^^
too bad tat my another fave lost.wch

Mona Santoso also former INA player....?:rolleyes:
Hehe yeah, she's indonesian :)
She was in INA's pelatnas back then, played WS and then also WD and XD
But now she's representing USA's baddy association
That's why those 0.5 come from :p :p
..Mona is not part of or representing the U.S. National team/squad/association. She only plays using USA as the country of her representation..
Btw, a bit surprised to see her & Vita made it to the Finals..
I didnt expect the QF & Semi could run up so many pages (57 pgs & counting), thanks to our industrious Labis & other members.
...
..if one splits them up, the QF & Semis threads will each have less than 57 pages. Heck, we can join all of the CHN Taipei Open threads into one and we'll have more than 100 pages of thread..:cool:

is everyone have a picture of this tournament and NTM?
