What do you think, will there be only one non-asian medal this year? maybe tine, peter, gail & nathan, ... ??? WHAT DO YOU THINK?!?!?
Tine Definetely Has A Chance. I Think That Anthony Clark And Donna Kellogg Have A Good Chance At A Medal.. Maybe Not Gold Although It Could Happen. I Think They Have A Better Chance Than Gail Emms And Nathan Robertson.
Yeah, Tine is gold medalist strong-fave outside Asia. Other candidates for silver or bronze probably are coming from England (XD discipline).
Pi is drawn into a more open half. ZN, IMO, is not a clear favourite to advance to the final. If she (that's a very big if) gets to meet Pi in the QF, she will have had to go through Salakjit (THA) and then an extremely stern challenge from Jun Jae Youn (KOR). Both ZN and Pi know each other's game inside out so I suspect it'll be a long drawn out encounter. Because of this, I would say Pi stands a better against ZN than against JJY. I think Pi will do well to get to the SF and that'll be it for her. Xu on the other hand has it tough. She has to get through Yippy (HK) or Hallam (GB). Then it's a date with #1 seed XXF, where I think her Olympics will end. That said, Xu has been displaying good form in the tournaments leading up to the OG and could push XXF quite hard. However, I don't see a miracle happening.
hello every one ! i think poland has a chance i mixed doubles may be till quaeterfinals Robert Matieusak & Nadiezda kostiuczky they r also very good players.
I would love to say Robertson and Emms, but, they have to play one half of the 2004 Gold Medal team. I don't think that the highest medalling returning pair should have to be placed in such a tough draw.
