. 2011 Super Series Finals: Day 1 - Wednesday 14-December What I know; * There will be 2 sessions on Day 1. * The first match of Session 1 will commence in 19 hours' time. We will have live-streaming from BadmintonWorld.TV (BWF's Channel); http://www.youtube.com/badmintonworldtv#p/l I have checked tournamentsoftware for the links for; * The Schedule of Matches * The Draws, but there is nothing at tournamentsoftware at the moment. .
The OSIM site gives the following link for the WSS Finals. http://www.wss-finals.com/ Unfortunatley, it defaults to Chinese language. Maybe someone can help us with it... Edit: That collage pic on the home page there makes the players look like some tortured souls from out of hell.
Qualified players and their seeding . From other BC threads, we can find the qualified players and their seeding, but not the draw. The qualified players are; Mens Singles (1) Lee Chong Wei (MAS) (2) Chen Long (CHN) (3) Lin Dan (CHN) (4) Peter Hoeg Gade (DEN) (5) Kenichi Tago (JPN) (6) Sho Sasaki (JPN) (7) Taufik Hidayat (INA) (8) Simon Santoso (INA) Womens Singles (1) Wang Yihan (CHN) (2) Wang Xin (CHN) (3) Juliane Schenk (GER) (4) Saina Nehwal (IND) (5) Tine Baun (DEN) (6) Sayaka Sato (JPN) (7) Sung Ji Hyun (KOR) (8) Bae Youn Joo (KOR) Mens Doubles (1) Cai Yun/Fu Haifeng (CHN) (2) Jung Jae Sung/Lee Young Dae (KOR) (3) Mathias Boe/Carsten Mogensen (DEN) (4) Ko Sung Hyun/Yoo Yeon Seong (KOR) (5) Koo Kien Keat/Tan Boon Heong (MAS) (6) Chai Biao/Guo Zhendong (CHN) (7) Hirokatsu Hashimoto/Noriyasu Hirata (JPN) (8) Mohammad Ahsan/Bona Septano (INA) Womens Doubles (1) Wang Xiaoli/Yu Yang (CHN) (2) Tian Qing/Zhao Yunlei (CHN) (3) Mizuki Fujii/Reika Kakiiwa (JPN) (4) Ha Jung Eun/Kim Min Jung (KOR) (5) Shizuka Matsuo/Mami Naito (JPN) (6) Cheng Wen Hsing/Chien Yu Chin (TPE) (7) Christinna Pedersen/Kamilla Rytter Juhl (DEN) (8) Poon Lok Yan/Tse Ying Suet (HKG) Mixed Doubles (1) Zhang Nan/Zhao Yunlei (CHN) (2) Joachim Fischer Nielsen/Christinna Pedersen (DEN) (3) Xu Chen/Ma Jin (CHN) (4) Chen Hung Ling/Cheng Wen Hsing (TPE) (5) Tantowi Ahmad/Liliyana Natsir (INA) (6) Sudket Prapakamol/Saralee Thoungthongkam (THA) (7) Robert Blair/Gabrielle White (SCO/ENG) (8) Shintaro Ikeda/Reiko Shiota (JPN) Jung Jae Sung/Lee Young Dae (KOR) might perhaps withdraw because of injury suffered 2 days' ago at the Korea GP Gold. .
yep, those faces look like hand-drawn, almost in a caricature fashion definitely not altered from photos but dang, he musta been one tortured artist!
That banner pic must be a candidate for the worst landing page in professional sport. I take back my words. It's a hands-down winner. No contest. Walkover.
Draw on the eve of the tournament . Yes, perhaps the organisers are following this type of doing the draw (on the eve of the tournament) when everyone is present; http://www.badmintoncentral.com/for...the-draw-on-the-eve-of-a-Badminton-tournament .
. I believe that Sandy is waiting for the DRAW, before creating the PAW Game of this tournament for us. .
2011 Super Series Finals: LIVE DRAW link . Thanks cobalt, I have also found this LIVE DRAW link, located at; http://www.badmintoncentral.com/for...805-LIVE-DRAW-of-BWF-Super-Series-FINALS-2011 .
. Hahaha... Lin Dan and Chen Long are drawn in the same group. I hope CBA won't match-fix LD-vs-CL, when playing in this group (Mens Singles Group B). .
It is easy for CBA. LCW will top his group and up to CBA to arrange (not manipulate) who to play him in the SF.
Poor LCW. I think he would prefer LD. LD paid him a visit at the locker room and they looked to be close friends. CL didn't do that.
Ok, see this.My opinion is that the late draw may be good for regular competitions due to known reasons. Yet for a festive competition like SSF, the season's climax, in which the qualifiers are limited and only be confirmed a couple of weeks prior to the competition, the draw could be earlier to build up the atmosphere...
Having a draw done will not help promote this event.....everybody knows who will be there...I don't understand why this is big issue...I prefer this way..Draw it LIVE!
Who said that. LYD withdraws? Just checked with Alvent and he has not been asked by BWF to replace lyD yet.
