2006 US Open

i'm not saying a Filipino can't get a visa.. I'm saying its harder for them to get it.

that goes for other nationalities as well, not only Filipinos.

..just found out abt this, but apparently an online webcast co. will broadcast the U.S. Open webcast..wow, is this the first time they've done it for a U.S. Open?? If so, perhaps, just perhaps this could be the 1st step in popularizing the game in the U.S....

here's the link from the IBF website:http://www.badmintoninternational.ne...USOpen2006.doc
don't know if it's free though..

From looking at yesterday's results, the russians are playing very strong. We might see some all Russian finals. Except Men's Double of course.

-Saw the Yeh twins in actions(actually took quite a few pics of them just for our friend LazyBuddy)....They took an early exit though, against Grace & Johanna.

Thanks buddy. Maybe the angle or so, somehow, I think the Yeh sisters changed quite a bit. Well, that's at least 2-3 years already, and I guess that could change a lot for ladies.

yah, i noticed that...I believe 1 partner(Nina Vislova??) of the Russia's WD pair which beat Kennie Asuncion and her partner yesterday, has been playing in several tournaments already (actually winning in the recent Russian Open).
Oh, a correction: the Trinidad & Tobago pair actually lost to the OCBC juniors; sorry i didn't really paid attention to their game much. I mentioned they might've surprised the OCBC juniors, but that wasn't the case.

BTW, Viper2005, i don't recall noticing you in the matinee/evening session yesterday??..were you there the whole day??..

..sorry for the blurred and bad angled pics of the Yeh ladies.. will try to take a clearer pic(s) of them, if i can, although they won't be in action anymore..

No worry, clear non-action ones are perfectly fine. Thanks a lot.

Come on over to SGVBC, maybe we can win The Pot with no one there.

[Viper2005]

You're not going to OCBC to watch Grace play? I believe they are playing against the #1 seed from Canada. If they win, they might get a rematch with Angie and Mona, looks like a GGBC rematch.

I will be at SGVBC tonight, win the pot, I'm in.

With your Woven 11 and my Kason, we're unbeatable.

Canada is going to tripple crown!

You maybe unbeatable with your Kason, but I'm very beatable.

[Viper2005]

Nothing to worry, with me in the front setting up shots and you smashing (crushing shuttles) in the back with your woven 11, easy money.....

That would be sweet...for Canada.

LOL! I wish I was easy money. Must keep practicing.

US Open: go, go Grace and Johannah and Lili!
