    Sigh...LKW/NHL lost to the same Korea pair again after last week defeat to them in Malaysia Open.They did not grab the chance when they lead with 21-10 in the first game.

    You wouldnt be saying that if it's Indonesian players.:(.
    And not all can go back yet, Wee Kiong is playing XD with Woon, they'll still be around. Lim/Ng need the OG points to make it to top 16, again like MO, failed to get in, hope they do better next rd.

    If in am not mistaken, JYS was in Korean Thomas Cup Team before, not sure which year.:cool: He may be the senior in Korean.
    But, Korean got some similiar names in their players. :cool:

    A poor start by MAS contigent in Korea :eek:
    Not surprise to many as all the players lost today were just juniors with the exception of hopeless KBH.
    Hoon Thien How/Wee Kiong doesn't looks like a better mix and match combination, both are lack of heights & power :(
    Credits must be given to BAM as they started to send more juniors for oversea majot events. (SS). :)

    Oh, I missed her name in the draw. Thought she did not enter, but yes, I'm most disappointed to say the least! :mad:

    Well, it really took her a long time to get adjusted and yet she is still lagging behind! Wonder when will she wake up? :rolleyes:

    Thanks. Kendrick needs it against the last Olympic Games bronze medalist (I think). It is a heavy responsibility but I'm sure Kendrick will do his best. And if Kendrick succeeds, I'm afraid not a few BC members will be unhappy because they will lose big points on their PAWs! :rolleyes:
