WOW, we now have 2 malaysians in the semis. Wonder what happen to Liew Daren in his match vs CL but CWF has proven that by beating Sony his game has reach a new level - GO CWF, GO!
Managed to beat the Russian pair and proceed to SF after the France Open and Japan Open last year but technically this is their best achievement considering the opponents they faced and this is a Premier Super Series whereas earlier are Super Series. Can they enter final tomorrow and extend their best achievement?
Fatso/TWK is on a roll and 50/50 chance of beating CY/CB and if they enter final vs LYD/YYS have 90/10 chance of winning - LYD never win against Fatso since their junior days. GO MAS GO!

Oops! I would say LYD/YYS have never beaten Fatso/TWK and LYD often suffers defeat to Fatso in their past encounters - hows that undeadshot, more acceptable right.
Yeah, that's more right. I think HTH beat LYD once in XD too as a scratch pair, and beat LYD with Ong Soon Hock and Tan Boon Heong as well.
Impressed by their run here. Win or lose tomorrow, already very proud of them. Looks like Tan Wee Kiong finally shine after a long time...
Tan Wee Kiong looks quite solid....I thought Hoon is the weak link in the partnership with several service errors today.
I watched the game and Fatso/TWK was superb - fantastic serves and return of service, brilliant defence, great footwork and speed, brilliant placements of smashes and great understanding and teamwork with bags of confidence. LYD will not be sleeping soundly tonite with the spectre of Fatso haunting him. GO MAS GO!
Services and return of services and netplay will decide the match - both pairs are strong in defence and not really oustanding in smashing so have to go for placement shots.
So what can I say? Really speechless. From a tough draw, they fought one pair and another and finally they are in the final. If those watching, in first game against Boe/Mogensen, second round Shin/Koo and SF against Cai/Chai, they are down at certain stage of their games but with determination and never give up attitude they managed to catch up, overtake and win. They show the right attitude that Koo/Tan are lacking. And they are smart enough to play a flat game and seldom lift unless desperate. Their weak back smashes are covered by fast flat attacks. Their strategy should be learn by Koo/ Tan. They already surpassed their best result and for final, hope they can give their best and results will be secondary as their feat so far already won them respects. Hoon will now motivate many fatso to take badminton seriously.
