M/Q Report version 1 (updated 9th March 2012), BWF link : http://www.bwfbadminton.org/file_download.aspx?id=326892&tid=1 Looking at M/Q report, INA, JPN, TPE have registered full team. Also KOR will bring their best in singles category. Some notable names from CHN squad are Chen Jin, Li Xuerui, Wang Lin and Chai Biao/Guo Zhendong. Overall, the entry list is much better than last year due to Olympic qualification point race will be ended soon
Too bad. Angga/Rian is #9 here.. if they can be seeded.. They can go further in this tourney. Finally first international tourney for Suci/Della in 2012.. Hope Nitya/Feinya can do better here! They are now rank #15. Hope they break top #10 this year.

And now, the good news [TABLE] [TR] [TD]42[/TD] [TD]15409[/TD] [TD]HWANG[/TD] [TD]Hye Youn[/TD] [TD]KOR[/TD] [TD]122[/TD] [TD]Q[/TD] [TD]14[/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE]
Tanongsak S (THA) talented player but his form is decreasing IMO, wonder whats going on. Muscleman Sho Sasaki, LHI: if PG cant prevent CJ from taking his spot perhaps these two can hunt down the spot from CJ. CWF, hope he goes far in this tournament. Taiphoon, CSC, TJing Yi, Lydia Cheah: players that I hope will do well. Time to go up, not down, especially Jing Yi and Lydia. Wang Lin: not sure how she'll do in this AUS GPG. Have to wait two weeks for this GPG. Too long for me
And another cutie Jung Kyung Eun Chai Biao/Guo Zhendong plus some other players had withdrawn, M/Q Report version 3 (updated 19th March 2012) : http://www.bwfbadminton.org/file_download.aspx?id=328748&tid=1 Seeding Report version 2 (updated 19th March 2012) : http://www.bwfbadminton.org/file_download.aspx?id=328749&tid=1
Too early to predict but can't help thinking LXR is unstoppable in the WS, and good to see Wang Lin and Han Li playing, surprisingly the latter two, Wang Lin understandably but why Han Li,have to start from the Qualification stage. The MS has a pretty strong lineup, Chen Jin got to repeat his sterling performance in the Swiss Open to win this one, certainly far from easy with Dangerman Lee HI, Showman Sasaki and Taufik participating. Let's see how the draw goes,not out yet.
Yeah but Cutie #2 plays almost every tournament these days. A Hwang Hye Youn sighting is very rare indeed.
Yes, Jung and Kim Ha Na are a little desperate now in terms of Olympic qualification. They are just 1000 points out of 8th place but can't seem to catch Cheng/Chien. This is their first of three more chances.
