    Does anyone have the video of Lin Dan vs Stefan Wojcikiewicz? From the YONEX German Open Grand Prix Gold 2011? or a video of Jan O Jorgensen vs Stefan Wojcikiewicz from the 42nd Portuguese International Championships 2007?

    Good to hear that you and Grace got your funding cards.

    Please don't take down your channel, you have awesome stuff and I watch all your videos. Maybe it's time to try to get you a few more subscribers, haha.

    Rest assured, I will keep my channel up as long as I can, regardless of recent events... Grace and I did NOT receive our funding cards, so it's quite a tough road ahead of us these next few months. Nonetheless, I can only try my best and do what I can. There are many people who don't like the way I do things, but I'm just trying to do what I can and I especially appreciate those who understand what I'm trying to do and are supporting me thoroughly. A big thank you to those people :)

    hard luck at the QF yesterday , did not have a chance to watch the match but saw the score on the tournament software, which confirmed it was a very close match . The world championship is around the corner nevertheless !!

    Oh man, I screwed up bad :( I deleted Michelle's QF match against Pi Hongyan before I transferred it to my computer! :crying: (I'm SO sorry! >__< ) Fortunately, I think there is still an archive of the BadmintonLife livestream. You can find a lower quality version of the match here:

    http://www.livestream.com/badmintonlife/video?clipId=pla_ebf48d28-136a-4eae-b1c9-652d2c488b00
    http://www.livestream.com/badmintonlife/video?clipId=pla_989332d9-a2eb-4893-a054-6e611118dba1
    http://www.livestream.com/badmintonlife/video?clipId=pla_5c4bea95-4906-423a-acd0-9a8c3963a265

    (Full credit to BadmintonLife.com and Livestream.com) The WS QF begins halfway through the first video file and it contains most of the match. The second file is only about 5 minutes long, and the last file is the very end of the match and has the rest of the QFs I believe, including my XD QF following Michelle's match.

    For a higher quality version of my match (Liu/Luo [CHN] vs Ng/Gao [CAN]):

    And... the MD QF (Lee/Ko [KOR] vs Lee/Fang [TPE]):
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qMSo8yhoGCw
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dyh6Wx8SK0Q

    Enjoy! That's all I will be uploading for Canada Open. I will probably post a brief blog with some pictures shortly, with a list of all the matches I filmed from US and Canada Opens, so be sure to look out for that :) Thanks for all your support!

    Quite a difficult draw for the WC for Toby/Grace.
