    Predicted winners on the left

    MS
    Bao CL v Roslin
    Bao has to be careful here. I'd be happy if Roslin wins, though.

    WS
    Zhu Lin v Lu Lan

    MD
    Tony/Candra v Lee/Hwang
    Tony/Candra are overwhelming favourites

    WD
    Yang/Zhang v Novita/Polii
    Chinese just too strong here, I think

    XD
    Widianto/Natsir v Eriksen/Schjoldager

    Wow, 4 CHN, 3 INA, 1 KOR, 1 MAs, 1 DEN

    It seems CHN only send their 2nd team. It looks like Bao CL has been differentiated from other team members like Lin Dan, Chen Hong, and Chen Jin. CHN sent BCL to indo open, but not Lin and Chens. then for Malay open and taipei open, CHN sent Lin and Chens, not BCL. This time CHN sends BCL to Korea open, while Lin and Chens to Hong Kong Open. Any body knows the reason for this? Does this mean that Lin Dan, Chen Jin, Chen Hong are the 1st team, and Bao CL, Chen Yu, Qiu YB(these 3 go together) are the 2nd team?

    Bao CL once again keeps performing better than Lee HI by beating Lee HI directly. :) Although Lee did pretty good this time at KO, but unfortunately, not good enough, or in another word: Bao CL just better. Let us see the HK open now, where Lee HI is going to meet Chen Jin, let's see who's going to win. I bet on Chen Jin.

    I go for Bao in MS. I tihnk roslin has benefitted from the top players either skipping the open or not peaking for this event as they are focussing on WC. We seem to say it everytime Bao gets near, but this is the best chance he will ever get.

    The only other Interesting final looks to be XD. Could Widianto/Natsir be peaking too early? or just hitting form at the right time. Back to Back WC would be impressive for a Often overlooked pair.

    GO!GO! Roslin..

    It's going to be hard to beat Bao Chunlai..but if he keeps his good form..he should be able to win. Currently,Roslin is impressive because he is combining new attacking style + with his normal defensive game.
    All the best Roslin!! :)

    It is a major break through for either one of them. Hard to pick.

    Roslin boleh !!!

    It should be a good match between Roslin Hashim vs Bao Chunlai. Chunlai has an advantage being a more skillful player plus Roslin is known to crumble occasionally when under pressure during his earlier career. However, I think the "new" Roslin may come out winner this time as he has a lot to proof and if he can keep his relentless attack then Bao may find it hard to defend. It's a 50-50 ball game and of course the Malaysian shall emerge as winner :p

    Looks like Kido/Setiawan is not there yet, eh? They still had to bow out to their senior. Too bad, but they have shown a lot of potential. What a big surprise for the Indonesian pair of Novita/Polii. I still find it hard to believe that they beat the defending champion Lee/Lee in their home ground. JOB WELL DONE GIRLS! As for Widianto/Natsir, it will be nice if they can win this KO and prove their superiority to the Danish pair, but Eriksen is still a very dangerous man to watch out for.

    Do you guys realize that the way Novita/Polii have been playing and climbing up to the top is very similar to Widianto/Natsir. At that time Widianto was partnered with somebody else and then came along a young lady Natsir. They were paired together and kicked ass right away beating Robertson/Emms in 2005 Singapore Open I think. Novita/Polii are the same. Novita was partnered with somebody else and then came along Polii who was her junior and they had climbed steadily since then. They even won the Philippine open which is a big surprise. I hope they can add a 6 star tournament title here. Who knows, they may become like Camila Martin, player(s) who are able to break the great wall of China's female players. GO GIRLS!
