BADZINE reported quite sarcasticly as follows:
" the last intra-national match up of the day provided an all-too-familiar results as men's double top seeds Fu/Cai, understandably exhausted from 28-minute epic battle in the first round, granted a walkover to compatriots Xie/Guo "

Ah, I remember Cai Yun commenting about his loss to the HK pair, something to do with tiredness ..... must be taking a lot of time to recover ....

**huangkwokhau** · 03-14-2008, 08:13 AM

In BWF's website reported that a lot of people/Media are concerned about the trend of WO........BWF cited" fortunate coincidence " abour Cai/Fu vs Xie/Guo

Quoted from the BWF:
In another fortunate coincidence, China’s Guo Zhendong-Xie Zhongbo enjoyed Cai Yun-Fu Haifeng’s misfortunate injury - the top seed walked off their meeting and the second best Chinese duo will now have a shot at a semi-final spot when they take on Korea’s Lee Yong Dae-Jung Jae Sung – last week’s winners in Birmingham.
However, it was a different scenario with the Danes as veterans Jens Eriksen-Martin Lundgaard refused to bow out easily and stretched their compatriots, Mathia Boe-Carsten Mogensen all the way before exiting the Swiss Open.
In fact, the contrasting wins has set many a tongue wagging amongst members of the media as a worrying trend is emerging with many withdrawals and walkovers whenever players from the same nationality take to court, heightened by the intense competition for Olympic Games qualifying points.

So, now, even the BWF is beginning to get suspicious

Hopefully, they WILL take some action.

You should shout way LOUDER.....

**badMania** · 03-14-2008, 08:18 AM

This is a good one here.....
In fact, the same fans might be cheering for Korea’s Lee Yong Dae- Lee Hyo Jung in the other quarter final, to avoid another all Chinese confrontation and a potential injury in case two Chinese teams are meeting.

Yup....the MAJORITY of us are with the writer and the fans at St Jakob's Halle.
