Your calculations are almost exactly correct, badMania. According to BAC website about M/Q report : Top 16 MS seeding : 1 -- Lin Dan 2 -- Lee Chong Wei 3/4 -- Bao Chunlai ; Chen Jin 5/8 -- Taufik Hidayat ; Sony Dwi Kuncoro ; Lee Hyun Il ; Park Sung Hwan 9/16 -- Chen Yu ; Boonsak Ponsana ; Simon Santoso ; Wong Choong Han ; Ronald Susilo ; Shoji Sato ; Chan Yan Kit ; Ng Wei Top 8 WS seeding : 1 -- Xie Xingfang 2 -- Zhang Ning 3/4 -- Lu Lan ; Wang Chen 5/8 -- Zhu Lin ; Wong Mew Choo ; Yip Pui Yin ; Eriko Hirose Several withdrawals of WS disclipine so far are KOR players (Jun Jae Youn, Hwang Hye Youn and Lee Yun Hwa), HKG (Zhou Mi) and INA shuttlers (Adrianti Firdasari, Fransisca Ratnasari).
The doubles M/Q report : - Top 8 XD seeding list is perfectly same with above post - Lee Jae Jin/Hwang Ji Man will not attend ABC but there's new KOR pair here, Lee Jae Jin/Choi Min Ho. So 6th - 8th position become : 6) Mohd Fairuzizuan Mohd Zakry/Mohd Zakry Abdul Latif 7) Shuichi Sakamoto/Shintero Ikeda 8) Tadashi Ohtsuka/Keita Masuda - Japanese WD pair Ogura/Shiota seems pulled out of the Asian meet and this disclipine only has top-5 seeding due to lack of participants?! Top 5 WD seeding : 1) Yang Wei/Zhang Jiewen 2) Lee Hyo Jung/Lee Kyung Won 3) Chien Yu Chin/Cheng Wen Hsing 4) Vita Marissa/Lilyana Natsir 5) Wong Pei Tty/Chin Eei Hui
I believe it's at Jalan Tebrau, next to the Traffic Police HQ.Very far from Larkin.There are 2 hotels across the road:New York Hotel and Hotel Selesa.
One thing that impresses me most about you, Birdwood, is your good manners, which reflects very well on your parents.People with naturally good manners are ,sadly,a diminishing species.So you stand out in a special but positive way.I don't see why I need to rationalise what i visualise but for you, I will oblige. The reason why I split MS (and WS) into CHN and non-CHN is because CHN MS are big enough as a team to help the chosen CHN MS win in individual events.(Whereas non-CHN do not actually work as a group to favour one non-CHN player to win, so that's just a shorthand.) Based on seedings, one half will have 2 CHN MS which will have a 50% chance of making the final;the other half will have 1 CHN MS which has a 25% chance of making the same.This ABC is actually tougher for CHN MS than the SS. If you check performance over the last year, indications are CHN MS has a distinct advantage over (top)European MS but none over (top) Asian(non-CHN) MS. So Asian (nC)MS has a good chance of upsetting CHN MS compared to European MS's odd chance.So the chance of LYB deciding one SF outcome is less than in a SS. When I said 'should', it means the possibility of non-CHN MS winning it is MORE rather than less. And there's no guarantee.(It also assumes that the other 3 CHN MS check out early.) If the ratio were 5:3 in favour of CHN like it used to be,when CH was playing, then I would say,'CHN sure win.Can guarantee.'
Anyone going? anyone going to watch ABC in JB over the weekend? Looking for kakis to travel from SG to JB. Uncle Loh, keen to go JB to take photo with Taufik? just PM me your name and contact...
That's why you can 'read' abt BCers from Johor & our neighbour down south, Spore, very eagerly awaiting this tourney. This year more exciting than previous years as it's the last tourney for OG qualifications
Whyyyy??.. ..Sam, why the disappointment and crying??..I thought you're going to see them next month during the Thomas & Uber Cup??.....Or, is it because you (and madbad) won't be able to PAW them????...
where can we get the ticket??? i hve tried to search da net but there's nothing bout the ticket counter... pls anyone tell me where to get the ticket i wan to be there n take picture with KKK
Thanks for kindly explaining it. Always enjoyed your posts, and it’s reassuring to hear the reasons since I’m rather naive in baddy tourney. I guess it’s a simple math with 5 non-Chn vs 3 Chn, in which everyone would be more for himself than a team effort all the way to the final As for the manner, I just don’t want to be left behind because most BCers are centrist with distinguished records of politeness. Besides, when in the Uncle category (age-wise), what choices one has btw: I saw posts that LD used to skip MO due to weather or something, but LD is going to be at ABC. Does anyone know if LD went to previous ABC or he changed his mind this time?
pjswift,thx for ur info! do u know hw long to reach da stadium from Larkin by taxi ?so ru going to ABC?
dreaming :crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying: I wish I was there:crying::crying::crying::crying: I hope my dream come thru
Yes, I agree, the analysis of PJSWIFT is getting a bit extreme unless the non-Chinese all gang up to conspire ... Boy, now we have Chinese vs non-Chinese issue. I do agree Chinese sending such a big team in man singles is to protect Chen Jin in 4th position.
Any ifo on live steaming :crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying::crying: Pls can anyone know if there will be live streaming Many thanks 2 anyone who knows
