Well we can't always have what we want Zhao Yunlei seems to be in great shape, so maybe they can take the title, but I'm pretty convinced HHB/YY will win against the Koreans....
I believe it's He Hanbin and Ma Jin . Although her play has delclined, I still like Lee Hyo Jung. I hope she can come up with a blinder
Of course I voted....6 golds to CHN....also, I said CHN MD is the missing gold cos CY/FHF already won 4 straight SS, I doubt they do a 5th...not that they are not good, they are good but the laws of probability of consecutive 5 wins.
. I think China would still be happy with winning 5 or 6 Badminton GOLD medals. In the Team Events, China has won 2. In the Individual Events, China has won another 2; the Womens Singles and Womens Doubles, although missing out in the Mens Doubles title. In the Mens Singles and Mixed Doubles, China has a good chance to capture these 2 titles. .
..wow, that's a first for me, "laws of probability of consecutive 5 wins"! Btw, CY & FHF have only won 2 straight SS (they attended the AE and KO SS this yr, but lost both); before they won the 2 SS, they won the WC..so, maybe you want to rename the theory to "laws of probability of consecutive 4 wins"??..
Typo...probability tells us they are not likely to pull a 5th straight, and as you said and I said previously too, MD is very evenly contested...not clear favorite...who peak on game day has the edge to win.
2010 Asian Games Individual Event: Could Korean XD pair take a Gold medal from China? . In the Mixed Doubles, the Korean pair (Shin Baekcheoul/Lee HyoJung) has just defeated the China pair (He Hanbin/Ma Jin) at the Semi-Finals. The Koreans will be facing China pair (Zhang Nan/Zhao Yunlei) at the Final. Could the Korean XD pair take a Gold medal from China? .
. I have started a new thread, found located at; http://www.badmintoncentral.com/for...vidual-Event-Badminton-Final-Day-(21-Nov-2010)
I'm rooting for ZN/ZY, and they seem to be in good shape - and their semifinal was less taxing than that of SBC/LHJ, I hope that makes a difference Zhang/Zhao for Olympics 2012!
I'm sure the chinese xd will be EXTRA CAREFUL when playing against the Korean xd this time.. Anyway, i hope the koreans fairy tale in this tournament continues till the end. Meanwhile for LCW, all the best to him 2moro
Hehe. I'm still hoping the Chinese combination will prevail But yeah, all the best to LCW - he really deserves to win this, but LD is gonna be hard to beat. He seems to be in great shape, didnt peak as early as Fu/Cai....and winning the semifinal in straight games will only boost his confidence even more...
