Hmm.. ..you're trying to steal the limelight from yannie ah??.. ah well, you got 'em pretty much all correct-good job!; but i still think you should've just tried guessing one of them..... Anyway, here are their complete names: #8 is Aaron Tan Wei Kiat #9 is Markus Wijanu Dwi Christanto #10 is Ashton Chen Yong Zhao #15 is Khoo Kian Teck & Frances Liu Fan #16 is Vanessa Neo Yu Yan & Koh Yan Sen
I can recognize Shinta Mulia Sari and Vanessa Yeo, the cute Fu Mingtian (Fu Mingxia's cousin ) and Gu Juan (from the scoreboard )
They are so easy to be recognize, i know a few of them they are my fren and use to be in the same training squad with them & a few of them is in the same ns batch with me, just do not know a few like triyachart chayut, erwin djohan & huang chao...
Now who could you be and were you once in the national squad? And what are you doing in China? Studying, working or bothe?
i used to train in chinese swimming club junior team during 2000 to 2001 so they select us to play for s'pore at m'sia for training n tournament i m now in singapore hehe m helping my dad in business just did not change my location on my nick and i am still playing badminton everywhere in s'pore
So many pictures of Singapore juniors. One day they will shine as bright as others in the badminton's world if they r trained well.
Some of these players, while still young, won't be allowed to compete in junior (U-19) tournaments any more. According to the SEA Games site, Ashton Chen turns 19 in September and just last month, Vanessa Neo turned 21 and Sari Shinta Mulia turned 20.
