    Come on Chong Wei, you have to be well rested when you take on Srikanth in the Semis. :D

    John is good in an entertaining way. My favourite is still GC and morten/steen with GC giving the insights into each individual's lives and morten/steen the technical details. I dont doubt HKV as well since he's quite the personality.

    Yup, John Burgess - whom senior BC forummers nicknamed as THAT GUY. I used to share a ride with him during the first Super Series Finals in Kota Kinabalu.

    This is too easy for Lee Chong Wei. He hasn't had a good workout all tournament.

    I think the next MS will not be a one-sided affair like this one.

    LCW in his element when he's not afraid. Well done.

    CTC lacked confidence, inner belief and mental strength playing LCW. He's so different and better against Hu Yun.

    I'm glad John didn't say too much as he used to.

    Agreed. Too easy it seems for LCW and I am a bit worried about that. He needs some good matches but he looks so confident here. I do hope that we can see this confident when he faces Lin Dan:cool:

    I am expecting another lopsided and quick match. Maybe should wait until Chen Long vs Son Wan Ho to watch a more interesting one.
