Please find the attached full entries: Kenichi tago Yu Hirayama Hong Ji Hoon Kim Moon Hi Bae Andre Kurniawan Better than last year in term of participants.
I don't see some INA players who they should compete in here, Adi Pratama (Pelatnas) Sylvinna Kurniawan (Djarum), her ranking will drop as SF ranking points last year Subakti Come back again, Fendi Iwanto (Djarum), back from Chile I Komang Sandy (ex partner Wifqi and Danny Bawa), represent Suryanaga now
Tough battle in MD as Korea sends their 2 most promising youngsters: Kwon Yi Goo/Ko Sung Hyun -- who beat Luluk/Alvent in the INA Open 2008. Cho Gun Woo/Yoo Yeon Seong
I heard Sylvi is going to move to either USA or Spain... Still undecided. It was her personal choice. Komang from Djarum will play with a player from Suryanaga. But Komang himself is still officially part of Djarum. I am still not sure why PBSI did not send Tantowi-Yulianti to play in this tournament... Are they injured or are they just merely training for Taipei Open?
No more fundings to BAM after the Olympics...? BAM has to deliver lots of gold to receive more fundings...
Thank's for the info I thaught Sylvinna got injury again, it's pity she can't play in her hometown. If She got to Spain, she follows Hendri W, if go to USA follows ? Smashie ? We prefer to she keep stay in Djarum. Komang Sandy will paired with Ade Riyadi, ex Djarum too.
Fran Kurniawan/Shendy Puspa Irawati to win the XD! They have the potential to be INA top future XD pair beside Tantowi Ahmad/Yulianti and Mohd Rijal/Greysia Polii. Meiliana Jauhari/Shendy Puspa Irawati to win the WD! Andre Kurniawan will have a fighting chance to win the MS! Maria Elfira Christina also has a similar chance to win the WS! Fran Kurniawan/Rendra Wijaya or Fernando Kurniawan/Lingga Lie to win the MD.
I agree with badMania that these guys all have a very good chance to dominate Indonesia Challenge this year...
Attention will now turn to the INA Int. Challenge 2008. As I posted, PB Djarum has a chance to win some more titles here. Looking forward to the Draw, probably announced this week.
