No result. The first match has already started more than an hour ago. It's Chan Kwong Beng vs. Roden Rivera. Chan must win or else Misbun will be very dissappointed. Filipino shuttlers are not that good compared to Malaysians.
So, on paper LCW will face Bao in semi-final of Philippines Open on Sat 21/7/2007. LCW has Simon Sontoso & Lee Hyun Ii while Bao has Soni Dwi Koncoro before that..
Its on tournamentsoftware. The Msian team from KL checked in yesterday night. Another batch will be arriving today from China.
BAO has a chance for revenge. But I kinda think it is more likely double defeat. Yes, Life is cruel, no two ways about it.
Oh right.. I just found it. I was searching under the names 'Bingo' or Bonanza before but am now surprised the sponsor name was left out.
yup, it's here: http://www.tournamentsoftware.com/sport/draws.aspx?id=16056 jia you kwong beng! hehehe!
I dont care if LCW score this time, just take the chances and prepare for the WC07. I shall put my eye on Hayofiz Hayoshim this time. Hope he get to play his best. Concerned on our Olympic hope taikor KKK-TBH. Hope they get the Champion this time. Finger cross for the rookies TCS and many other. Anyway how do you say word of encouragement in Filipino like "jiayou" or "gambate"?
who is better taufik or chong wei ? both of them must prove it throught this tournament .... this time i support taufik ( i m country man also ... )
veteran : Peter Gade, Chen Hong, Wong CH Top rank : Lin Dan, Taufik, Lee Chong Wei 2nd rank : Kenneth, Hafiz, Sony, Bao, Chen Yu, Bonsak, Chen Jin
3rd rank: Andre Kurniawan Tedjono, Roslin Hashim, Lee Tsuen Seng, Kendrick Lee, Joachim Persson, etc....
Kenneth Jonassen belongs to the veteran group since he is as old or maybe even older than Peter Gade!
I am sorry I have to disagree. He is not playing well enough to trouble LD or LCW. He will still be just 2nd ranked even though he gets up there for the semis. Until he wins the big one, he will be only be 'thereabouts' at best.
Yes I know what you are saying - you are saying after all you are an Indonesian too. Taufik is good, in fact he is very good. Sometimes a bit wayward but at other times brilliant. Have you realised that with LCW getting back to form, each of the countries (China, Malaysia, and Indonesia) has one very good MS player and the others are so-so. It is beginning to be enjoyable watching coz we all think our own player will win.
