Ya, you can bet most of the time the girls are out mountain-climbing or sea-surfing. The tan proves it.

Actually, XD is a gentler game to play; And I love playing it.

I hope to play more games of XD. But unfortunately, in Melbourne, Australia, for every 10 players only 1 is a female.

Our Melbourne girls prefer to play Netball more than Badminton.

The 2011 Denmark SSP has just finished.

Points to be added are;

Chen Long.........Winner..........11000 points
Lee Chong Wei...Runner up.......9350 points
Peter Gade........Placed 3/4.......7700 points
Lin Dan.............Placed 9/16.....4320 points
Taufik Hidayat...Placed 9/16......4320 points

I do not know what points will be dropped off for each of the players (from last year, this week), but it looks like on Thursday 27-Oct-2011, Chen Long would overtake Lin Dan as World No.2.

LCW is going to compete in French Open right? Somehow I don't think that's a good idea. I'm aware that top 10 players have to play certain numbers of the superseries according to BWF's rule. But shouldn't he take a break for awhile? His strategy to maintain his points for OG by playing many tournaments is backfiring. Lin Dan on the other hand, is being pretty smart by choosing what tournaments he wants to compete in seriously. He still got points, although less than LCW but enough for OG. Lin Dan is resting well enough, whilst LCW is pushing himself too hard.

In the last 12 moths, LCW has played in not more tournaments than the other top players;

LCW...11
PG......11
LD......13
CL......14
TH......15
CJ.......15

I still think that LCW is OK with 11 tournaments in 12 months. It's in playing, he gets stronger players in sparring matches. Staying at home in Malaysia, he gets none.

I see. Thanks for the info chris! Yet, LCW's stamina not as it used to be, at least to me. He looked a little out of breath after his match against Chen Jin. I should blame that on his age catching up with him? Guess I'll see it for myself in French Open.

wow CJ closing in. If CJ wins a big one and PG bungled out early. That is it. Adios to LCW.

lyb will whip CJ into Terminator 2 to let LCW run for his money.

[SibugiChai]

cannot let CJ enter top4 la... veli dangelost

[extremenanopowe]

no wonder lcw lost in DO. They played the AG song. lol. Mr. Silver Medalist.

Also the jinx finals tshirt? OMG. The coach hair is going to be gone soon if he keeps playing like this. TSB going tobe botak soon.

[extremenanopowe]

I felt sorry for LCW, he is now stucked in between the existing legend and an upcoming legend.

If CJ qualifies, LCW need to have 3 whammies. It's like an appertizer, then main course and lastly desserts? lol.

He got lots of karma with him. Must have done something wrong in previous life? lol.

Again, he shd have lost to PG in DO.

I said it before too that when it comes to majors like WC, OLY (in London) and AE (play in England), CJ was always prepared and played his best badminton, especially in England. With 3 CHN MS in OLY12, highly probable to have all 3 in SF. Assuming LCW gets into SF, it comes to mental (has to beat 2 CHN MS) and physical (whoever LCW meet, it will be tough) while LD will get a sidewinder to assist him. This is OLY12, that is what LYB is aiming for, guarantee he will fix it if the opportunity presents itself.

I said too as well that LCW should threw the match to PG, this will come back to haunt Dato if CJ squeaks by PG into the Top 4.

Actually I was wondering...do you know the real reason why LCW did not throw the match? Because BAM don t know how to tally ranking points!

Actually, if he des I think it would be great fun :-)
