    Hello everybody, check this out:

    http://www.internationalbadminton.org/world_ranking.asp

    I saw this today (16/02/2006; 2319 GMT) and you can tell straight away that this ranking is wrong! They must have taken an old ranking from sometime years back! How can Peter Gade be no. 1 at this moment? This is ridiculous! What's wrong with IBF? Can't they even maintain the world ranking properly? Isn't the world ranking supposed to be updated every thursday? Sometimes they can be really late with this as well, this is unbelievable. It is so frustrating sometimes that the sport you love so much brings so much embarassment because of little things like this. Wait till the players find out they have been treated like this...

    Bwahahahahaha. Jonas and Lars are still partners. Well maybe they still have that rank for those 2 since they did play a fair bit over the season...

    No disrespect intended but I don't think I would label this as a disaster as such, just someone making a simple error, I don't think they ever had any intention for it to cause hurt to the players.

    I think the techincal pll behind this is either very new or don't know badminton. Well i'm kinda dissapointed also on this matter. They over looked the small matter. Most of the time small matters MATTERS.

    Sorry for digging up an old thread!!!

    But how can lD be third after winning the all England last month
    Furthermore peter gade is 2nd even though he was nowhere in the all England champs
    Surely there is something wrong sure LD doesn't play in as many tournaments as LCW but even chen jin is better than gade and taufik is better too in my opinion
