    Unlike the Uber Cup, the Thomas Cup goes to form.

    All 4 seeds go thru to the q-finals.

    So, the QF lineup is likely to be:
    INA vs ENG*
    CHN vs THA*
    KOR* vs DEN
    MAS vs JPN*

    Playoffs:
    ENG vs NGR
    THA vs NZL
    JPN vs GER
    KOR vs CAN

    yeah, the JPN team prove that they might be able to pull off an upset if anyone takes them too lightly.

    Their doubles are really turning to be a force of their own these days under Park Joo Bong. Even INA pairs will find it difficult to beat Sakamoto/Ikeda and Ohtsuka/Masuda, like the DEN veteran pairs experienced today in 2 titanic battles.

    yeah, you can always depend on the legend to inspire a new generation of doubles stars. i suspect MAS will have a tough time in the QF.
