Thanks for the links/videos suetyan

demo, which model was the sky blue track jacket n any good places to get it?

Let me check again, it's an old model already and not in the new catalogues anymore. But even now the price I saw it at yesterday made me forget already . Still above 10,000 Yen even with >~30% discount. The new heat capsule models are much cheaper And same colour available: 489
I think these are good alternatives: http://sportsman.jp/shop/sports/prod...28/mtd-12_010/ & http://item.rakuten.co.jp/racket/70024/ First one VeryCool model though ...

what about last year Dutch Open? Hehe... she lost to Yao Jie in the WS final (forced YJ into rubber game) and won the WD title.

Are you confusing something?

Your PAW Games selections/entries will now be twice as good.

What??? The video is only lasting 2 seconds?

As to: No one should be made to play three matches in one day; I think BWF never expected participants nowadays to be still playing in all 3 events, namely; Singles, Doubles and Mixed.

Now you know why the video is only 2 seconds?
No, no! Not three matches in one day. I said three matches per category per day. So theoretically, a player may play up to nine matches a day if he or she enters three categories and there are too many entrants. This is usually not the case now, but the number of entrants may increase with the imminent increase of prize money

The one below Manami, left of Masayo, top right of Sayuri, right of Yu and two signatures to the right of Ayane. Heh heh



Nice?

..So theoretically, a player may play up to nine matches a day if he or she enters three categories and there are too many entrants.

off topic:
..how do you mean by playing in 9 matches a day, even playing in 3 events/categories?..are you thinking of playing in the Qualification rd., R64 & R32 per event in one day, which i don't think is possible or has ever occurred?..

Ok, now I'm really confused. I distinctly remember singles players having to play 3 qualification matches in one day. 32 qualifiers for 4 places. 60 players. An example is the Djarum Indonesia Open 2008. http://www.tournamentsoftware.com/sp...C30369&draw=11. Apparently, they must have already changed the system. 16 qualifiers for 4 places. 44 players. Maximum 2 matches a day. LOL, I haven't noticed it . I wonder whether it's feasible to start the matches on Monday to allow for more entries?

..yeah, there you go..It depends..
Generally, most BWF tournaments will last between 5-6 days (start on Tuesday). If there are many entries, usually they will have 1 full day of Qualification Rd. The QF Rds. themselves will have different number of entries. And because of this variance, it's hard to say how many matches, in a QF Rd., a player or pair will play from one tourney to another. So, it's not so much because the system has changed.
As for matches starting on Monday and last for 7 days, the only other exception where this would occur is usually during World Championships and Olympics. But those tourneys don't have any QF Rd as they start with R32 (in all 5 events).
