Both no 1 and 2 in MD struggled a bit today, esp lee/jung will have another tought match against the no 7 chinese pair!!

Looking forward to tomorrow, I just love the SSP events!!

people keep criticising BWF, but the SSP must be a success with most of the top players participating.

Because we are in the Olympics qualification period this year, we find many top players participating in the SSP tournaments.

Perhaps, in the next 3 years, SSP won't be well participated. Let's wait and see.

if Koo/Tan want to win against nemesis Ko/Yoo, all they need to do is to play hard, no fancy movement, and most thing is don't give Ko/Yoo a single break, SEND THEM TO HELL...!!
this is what john wayne as colonel said to his soldiers...

MS QF
Simon Santoso vs Peter Hoeg Gade [4] - I am hoping for Simon to beat Peter Gade again, after the success in the Korea SSP earlier this year at the same stage! This is especially as Gade was stretched to 3-sets in his match against Du Pengyu today as well as the first-round match against Shon Wan Ho yesterday, while Simon has had 2 easy matches so far.

MD QF
Markis Kido/Hendra Setiawan [8] vs Mathias Boe/Carsten Mogensen [3] - Boe/Moe should take this one as Kido/Hendra are obviously struggling to find their form right now.

Kudos to BWF, without the SS Premiers it will be so difficult to gather all the top players together so often.

Don't worry,without the Olympics, the World Championship and Super Series Final (perhaps not limited to top 8) will become more important and sought-after, I think. I also expect that BWF will continue to fine-tune it,improve the format,increase the prize money,boost the image,raise the status,and so on and so forth.

Yessir coach...But coach you forgot note that with the speed and fitness of Yo-Koo, they may not give our buddy Koo-Tan a break

And forget Johnny Boy said, Jackie Nicolson said 'you can't handle the truth'

Again your last sentence amazed me. The radio over here has been playing this (in bold) for the past month.
This should be told to KKK/TBH and all their supporters.

**extremenanopowe** · 11-24-2011, 05:46 PM

Camon kkk, you can do it. Show us you are a handsome boy. Else, we bcers are going to whoops your butt. lol.

**AE 86** · 11-24-2011, 06:58 PM

is time for KKK/TBH to end the jinx against the korean pair.

**AE 86** · 11-24-2011, 06:59 PM

CPS/GLY should have no problem to get past the THAI pair.

**AE 86** · 11-24-2011, 07:01 PM

it will be a smooth sailing for dato lee today after comfortably blew tago away yesterday.

**visor** · 11-24-2011, 07:04 PM

well, koo and tan did get a nice 2 week break having skipped hk open, so we'll see if that helped them any bit at all

but my intuition only gives them 30/70 chance of winning against their arch rivals tomorrow

Yes, this should be a most interesting match; World No.4 (Ko/Yoo)-vs-World No.5 (Tan/Koo).

I think it could be: Ko/Yoo 55%-vs-45% Tan/Koo.
