Ah man, I can't wait for the All-England this year. This has been a tournament that I've always enjoyed watching. Hope there will be some great matches.

It is very simply: we (especially MAS & INA fans) hate the dominance of CHN. I personally cheer for the underdogs most of the time.

Hate probably is a wrong word. "bored" would probably be better word. But don't misunderstood me.. i love the Chinese players.

Well, we do celebrate our players' victories... if that happened to be at the expense of a Chinese player / pair... well, yeah, too bad...

Who are the other two to make up the four you first wanted?

So you have changed your taste?

Or you now think that two of your own girls are acceptable after all?

Personally I just like a bit of variety... I guess it's kinda silly really, but checking the tournament results for the QFs and seeing the same flag all the way down the SF column kind of leaves me very disinterested for what's to come, and I feel a little let down... It's really nothing to do with China, if it was any other country dominating I'd still hope for the "underdogs". Because when the hopes of a country rest solely on your shoulders, you're always going to have a lot more motivation to win. When every other player left in the tournament is from the same country... well it may as well just be a national championship (albeit with a rather large (in badminton terms) cash prize

) as far as I'm concerned!

Anyway I don't really mind if a China player or two gets through (Lin Dan always makes for a very interesting final!), but I like a bit of variety here and there. To me, the most interesting tournaments are usually where a lesser known player comes out of nowhere to win! And if that player came from China, well that would be great too

. Basically I just prefer to see a range of flags as I look down the page, and that usually means China players will have to lose somewhere along the line... nothing against China (I'm... 1/16th Chinese

), just the way I prefer things personally

Ahhh...! This is what I was trying to say all packed into a few sentences!
