    Yeah, better than last year :)
    And who will cruise into last four?
    On paper, only our XD (if not blunder) who has best chance compared the other three who will face heavy-weight opponents.

    Yup, the same person ;)
    I guess Jung/Lee will learn their last week losing and take revenge this time, interesting clash indeed.

    Looking at tv schedule, only first five matches at TV court (court 1) will be aired LIVE.

    First five matches are very interesting already. Astro will show a delayed second five.

    Run by a bunch of incompetent people. That is why if the players don't unite, they themselves will suffer. ;) Many are self centered, ignorant or so called 'bo-chap' players. ;) Even the asian fans are left fuming with the late games. ;)

    [h=2]FORMER World No 1 Peter Gade launched a furious attack on world badminton chiefs after making a first round exit at the All England championships in the early hours of Thursday.[/h]
    The 35-year-old Dane had hoped for a farewell climax at the world's oldest tournament but instead was made to wait for several hours before suffering a 17-21, 21-16, 21-14 defeat to England's Rajiv Ouseph.It was the first time Gade had ever lost to Ouseph and afterwards he condemned the system imposed upon the tournament by the Badminton World Federation (BWF)."Why are we not in the same league as tennis or golf? Well, this is why," the former All-England champion fumed, referring to the use of four courts instead of five and the schedule's calculation of only 40 minutes for each match."To finish in the first round at 2.30 in the morning in my last All-England is very disappointing," said Gade, by far the longest lasting top level singles player in the history of the professional game."At my age you can be very vulnerable if everything is not right," he went on. "I have to give everything and everything has to be perfect. This is not what you want at the All-England."But no matter how crazy it sounds I expected this to happen. When you see they are planning only 35-40 minutes per match -- that's impossible. It tells you everything. It shouldn't be possible to happen."It left Gade finishing at the famous tournament with hardly anyone watching and made to depart almost unacknowledged.Earlier another famous name, Taufik Hidayat, the former world and Olympic champion, also complained about the scheduling imposed on the All-England after suffering a scare in the first round.In a match starting almost three hours late, Taufik had to save two game points in the first game and to recover from 13-15 in the second game before surviving 25-23, 21-17 against Kevin Cordon of Guatemala."I was too hungry because I had had to wait so long," the Indonesian legend said. "We need to eat at the right times, and I had to wait almost three hours to play. My hand was shaking.""They also have too much delay between matches," said Taufik.He next plays Chen Jin, the 2010 world champion from China with the winner facing a possible quarter-final with Lin Dan.Another player clearly affected by the late finish -- almost 3am in the case of the last women's singles -- was Wang Xin, the second seeded Chinese player, who was also beaten.The Asian Games champion from Shenyang showed little desire to cope with the lack of nutrition and debilitating delay caused by the schedule and went down 21-8, 21-13 to the unseeded Korean Sung Ji Hyun.

    Not sure if either of that can happen, but I hope to see a top form TH (which he hasn't been in such form for a long time) vs LD tonight as top form TH can be very scary and will make the match super interesting.
