According to China news, Gao Ling and Wei YiLi will represent China in WD event in Mas and Korea Open 2009. They will be back on court again but Gao Ling was admitted to the hospital because of fever. Other China players will skip these two tournaments.
Hmm, I just read another post from Hau-ge. Yang Wei and Zhang JW will be there too. Other players refer to most of the China national team members
okok..tat good..i thought cant watch them play in international tournament after they retire..hehe..u stay at HK?last time olympic gold medal players went to hk u went to see them also?
As mentioned by Hau-Ge, Gao Ling will partner Wei Yili, while Yang Wei will still be partnering Zhang Jiewen. All the four players "have retired" from the National Team. All the other CHN players will be absent from the Malaysia and Korea SS.
I think it's funny how they had a formal retirement celebration from the China national team at the 2008 China Open and then go and compete independently. It shouldn't be called retirement, more like separation.
erm...well...officially retired from the badminton organisation in their country mah...even wch,ctf/lww also do so...
yes, gaoling will attend Malaysia and Korean tournament with WeiYili, but only play WD. haha ,we can see her again on the TV
well i have no problem with that but after so much hassle of farewell ceremony reports in newspaper and thread... we voiced our unwillingness, suddenly they are back so their next departure, maybe ppl wont cherish much... btw where is Yeoh Kay Bin?
YKB is in Netherland ( league)....he just participated at Italian Challenge and lost to Dicky Palyama in 1st round.
This may probably her last participation in Super Series. She may play some tournaments if no players from China Team in the draw. Her contract with Yonex ended, maybe. (CTF helped them?)
