    Whoooaaaa!!

    Only 18 days to go!!

    It seems like the olympics is just around the corner and it´s come so quickly!!

    It seems like yesterday that Lars and I won the WC and now we go in as topseeds for the olympics. Who would have thought that??!!

    I would like to take this opportunity to thank you all for your support and kind words to me and Lars.

    I hope to enjoy a lot of great badmintonmoments with you guys in future tournaments.

    Will any of go to watch the olympics?? If you do I have a request which I think would be much appreciated here at the forum. Make some HUGE banners with BADMINTONFORUM.COM printed on them so a lot of people will notice you and visit our great site. (Applause editors)

    Thanks again!!

    JR

    After you win the gold ;) and if you do get some media coverage. Don't forget to mention your supporters from badmintonforum.com :p Did Kwun send you a shirt? Maybe you can wear it afterwards? :D Good luck JR!! I hope that I'll be able to see your games on tv.

    good luck JR and LP. You guys are exciting to watch. I'm behind you guys for the MD Gold which I believe is great for Denmark as well as to the sport of international badminton.

    Toughest Opponents

    JR, as the first seeded, who do you think would be the toughest opponent(s)?
    Best of luck to you ...

    It must be truly wonderful to take part in the Olympics. Best of luck to you, Lars and Rikke.

    Hope you have recovered from your recent injury. Maybe it even gave you a little rest time to concentrate on other things.:D

    Take care of yourselves and do pop by BF, if possible, whilst in Athens.

    Good Luck!

    i could not believe that i would have the opportunity to talk to the best double player in the world. Though i would like LWW/CTF to take the gold, I would be "as happy" if you guys won!

    Good luck and all the best.

    Tough challenges from Indonesian doubles

    Hi Jonas!

    How are you!
    It's been so long since I last posted in this forum!
    I have been really busy with the Indonesian Olympic Games team preparation! Well of course i am not preparing for Athens but I have been busy writing about them! LOL

    I chatted with several Indonesian men's doubles players several days ago and they only had one thought in their minds : OLYMPIC GOLD!
    We've been securing men's doubles olympic gold since 1996 and our players are planning to continue the 'tradition' to this Olympics in Athens.

    Luluk Hadiyanto and ALven Yulianto, Flandy Limpele and Eng Hian, Sigit Budiarto and Tri Kusharjanto will challenge u in the Olympic Games :D
    Yesterday I visited the national training camp in Cipayung, East Jakarta along with other journalists.

    They had their afternoon training like usual and what can I say? They looked all ready and prepared :D especially the men's doubles.
    I had a little chat with the training director christian hadinata and he said everyone is ready for the big events...

    It'll be difficult for me to decide who am I going to support this time! LOL I am a big fan of you and Paaske but I am also an Indonesian :p
    May the best wins!!!

    GOOD LUCK

    PS : Luluk/ALven said hi! LOL
