    Just not true. Your bias against China is getting a bit old, I have to say. Just support whomever you want, and we can all have a great day filled with badminton! ;)

    Ahhh, but at least you get the stream at all! Here in good ol' Germany all YT-streams are blocked, and with Stealthy on the connection is slower than my phone's. :(

    Wow, Hendra/Ahsan lost... the men doubles final isn't something we would expect to see in an All-England final... I mean none of the two won a Super Series title before... really, so many upsets in this All-England!

    Will Liu Xiaolong/Qiu Zihan show to become another pair that China can depend on by winning tomorrow? I just somehow don't see Endo/Kenichi winning although they have been consistent, they never play beyond a certain level that would make them a top pair. The China pair has been much less consistent but they can show brilliance.

    Hendra Setiawan and Markis Kido stopped at SF stage ... well, they can still try again next year..

    Don't think so - if you're as great as HS you'll have to get used to playing with inferior partners. He did so all his life, and having won both the WC and OG titles I don't think he's all that desperate to win more titles. Not saying he doesn't care either way, though ;)

    Wonderful, what a cracker of a match ! Liu/Qiu are so positive and proactive in their fight back.

    What a performance by LXL/QZH ..... Too bad Ahsan/Hendra have to let go a ticket to the final to China Pair.

    Ashan...It is painful to assist at such a mental breackdown. It seems to be a trait of many INA players actually

    Ahsan missed so many easy ones and put his partner in trouble so many times. But I quite like this Chinese pair too, very fast play!

    Sigh....what a wasted chance. They were comfortably leading 13-7 when it all went wrong :(
    This served as a lesson yet again that there is no such thing as a comfortable lead for INA players/pairs.
