what happened to this thai player? did he retire as well after the olympics? i assume his partner retired, but he is only 27..still a few years left for a doubles player?

dunno,

Pramote Teerawirawatana (if I remember his name correctly) is now part of the national coaching staff I think. He was 36 I think when he played in the 2003 World Championships.

he was a good player to watch, many flashes of "old crafty folk"

Some said Kungfu Panda...

I found one photo on him with his partner back in 2001. He was not that "big" at that time...

..these were taken during last yr's Thai Open....Btw, Tesana is not a Panda (as that's already reserved for our own NGP). Rather, a teddybear is probably more apt..

To me, Tesana doesn't looks Thai!
Haha!

Maybe it's just me or something.

I am not amused by your comments at all and I am not asking for credit.

I like to share my pics with you guys and do not see the need to copyright my photos (yes I know they are not good photos compared to the pros here).

All I ask is that you state the source or link where you found the photos.
