If KKK/TBH will be there; I am sure Malaysian BCers would be pleased.

I am a fan of Lee Yong Dae/Ha Jung Eun (KOR).

I hope they would rise up to make it into the Top 4 Mixed Doubles seeds.

Lee Yong Dae/Ha Jung Eun defeated Tontowi Ahmad/Liliyana Natsir [2] at the 2011 Denmark Open SSP last week. This has given LYD/HJE confidence.

Thanks for the 2012 OLY points compilation/info.

Lee Yong Dae/Ha Jung Eun really need to start gathering more OLY points from now on.
