erm...tago is good...but no as good as chen long and song(tanongsak)...btw...it is tanongsak...not thanongsak
what?? im actually very surprised and shocked that u say tago is not as good as chen long and tanongsak tago was the spore open ss 2008 quater finalist and have done quite a good archievement in many international tournament and got upsets many top players too while chen long i`ve not heard his archievement in international tournament b4 but i still thinks that tago is better than tanongsak.
hmm...china squad is full with quality player...if play in international tournament...sure is the very best player...chen jin is a proof(he is way ahead of many that same age or even older than him....)...tago need a good enviroment...he can be more better...but just not now...considering song age..he is better than tago... anyway...just personal opinion...^^...
chen long is good, in fact there r lotsa gd players in china.. jz tat they din participate in international tourneys only
The Star Online > Sports Friday July 18, 2008 Kok Siang wants to be like his brother by winning a major junior tournament By RAJES PAUL KUALA LUMPUR: Shuttler Teo Kok Siang is determined to emulate his brother in his final year as a junior. Ten years ago, Kok Seng partnered Chan Chong Ming to win the world junior boys' doubles title. For Kok Siang, he has failed to land a title in his last two campaigns in major junior tournaments at the Asian and world levels. Last chance: Teo Kok Siang (front) in action with Mak Hee Chun during the Asian Junior Championships yesterday. This year, the 18-year-old Kok Siang is hoping to make a mark with his new and experienced partner Mak Hee Chun in the ongoing Asian Juniors at the Juara Stadium in Bukit Kiara here. They are the top seeds and began their campaign yesterday with a 21-4, 21-12 win over Iraq's Mustfa Mohd-Haider Mahdi Bashah. Kok Siang-Hee Chun have an easy path to the quarter-finals where they are expected to play against South Koreans Kim Dae-eun-Kim Ki-eung. Kok Siang said that he switched from singles play to the doubles this year. “I was eight when my brother won the world junior title. His win inspired me to take up the game seriously,” said the Johorean. “I started off as a singles player and joined the BAM (Badminton Association of Malaysia) four years ago. I did not win any major junior singles titles and the coaches decided that I should try my luck in the doubles.” He has done well thus far with Hee Chun, winning the Dutch and German junior titles. “The challenges from the Chinese, Koreans and Indonesian pairs will be stiffer in this Asian meet. Hee Chun is a very experienced player and I will try my best to complement him,” said Kok Siang. “This is my last chance to do well in an Asian junior tournament and I hope to go as far as possible. Hopefully, a good showing will put me on track to become a national player.” The other Malaysian boys' doubles pair also cleared the first round yesterday. Ow Yao Han-Pang Zheng Lin beat Michiharu Kido-Ryo Takiuchi of Japan 21-19, 16-21, 21-19.
He is quite good.....he also plays at ABC too...heard that he will be going to Canada as one of Mas coach is there........
Both of this name had became elite player -- Wang Yihan & Wang Lin. Promising star -- Dionysius Hayom Rumbaka, Ratchanok Inthanon. Still in process to be top player someday -- Chen Long, Jan O Jorgensen.
i think arif has slowed down yet chen long has been improving as well as jorgensen... I see some future in china's Wang Zhengming from guangdong. He seems to have good attacking play in terms of steepness in his smash and fast drops and his quickness to follow his smash to the net. What he has to improve is his stamina cuz he seems to get exhausted faster than his opponents. This guy is probably unknown but he was world junior champion a year ago i think and had really good chances of beating park sun hwan in the china masters. Hope he can join china national team to improve much more. by the way how old is jorgensen?
well in 2009 a few player had impressed me ratchanok tai tzu ying watanabe tatsuya mitani minatsu will be badminton stars in future there are a few more,but i opt to observe one more year
