I think she was exhausted after playing so many matches. Xia Jingyun's lost shown that chinese WS is still not stable. haha... it's miracle if CXJ bt ZM.
Good prediction!! I think Yip Pui Yin a little fortunate. Zhou Mi eked out a tough win. She's very tired at the end of the match.
2009 East Asian Games in Hong Kong: WS finalists . Cheung, You watched the matches? Results: Pui Yin YIP [2][HKG] defeated [TPE] Tzu Ying TAI 21-17, 17-21, 21-19, in 58 mins Mi ZHOU [1][HKG] defeated [CHN] Chen XIAOJIA 21-13, 14-21, 21-16, also in 58 mins The seeding was quite accurate. It's now GOLD and SILVER to Hong Kong. I think ZM can win the GOLD tomorrow. .
Televised here. Tai was absorbing Yips power shots well and just lost a bit at the end, probably because of tiredness. I think Yip is in better physical condition than Zhou Mi. However, Yip gets tense in front of the home crowd. I'd have to give it to ZM to win tomorrow.
ouch! tai tzu ying is inch away from a silver in ea games! and she probably have 3 or 4 more to go!argh! u have done well hehe i am proud of u the 15 years old tai and 14 years old ratchanok will be china threat for generations
It is interesting to have finals as China vs. China in XD, HKG vs. HKG in WS, Taiwan vs. Taiwan in MD LYB might feel regret that he didn't send full squad ....
Try to reply via mobile phone. Hope that it work ;p hmm, cheng shu / zhao yunlei also lost tamely... What happen? They need rest i think. China team Jia you...
erm well i believe some player from tpe,sg,thailand,india can challenge the china ws player in next decade
A decade is a long period of time in terms of badminton career, I am thinking around the time frame of 2012 Olympics ....
Wow, Zhou Mi praised Chen Xiaojia in this chinese article. http://sports.sina.com.cn/o/2009-12-12/22374742138.shtml Not bad Xiaojia, jia you.. Not to let other people look down at you. Zhou Mi also hopes that Yippy can beat her in the final because Yippy is a local player. So, let's see whether Yippy can beat ZM or not.
Good things as HKG girls win the Gold Medal, while MD is won by the rising TPE. TPE has 2 good MD pairs now: Chen Hung-Ling/Lin Yu-Lang - won several events this year, including the Chinese-Taipei Open GP Gold 2009 and currently ranked at No 11. Fang Chieh-Min/Lee Sheng-Mu - beat Markis Kido/Hendra Setiawan TWICE this year and only lost narrowly in the other match Currently ranked at No 18. and 2 good MS players: Hsieh Yu-Hsin - currently ranked at No 16. Hsueh Hsuan-Yi - currently ranked at No 48. Oh and they have a growing numbers of excellent WS junior players too: Tai Tsu Ying - reached SF in the East Asian Games 2009, beat Febby Angguni before in the AJC SF before losing to Chen Xiaojia in the Final. Hsu Ya-Ching - have beaten a number of INA players this year
Only 2 disclipine that stage final match from different country, MS and WD. CHN, HKG, TPE have secure 1 gold each through XD, WS and MD respectively.
Tao Jiaming/Zhang Yawen grab gold medal after def. Zhang Nan/Ma Jin, 21-15 ; 21-14. Bronze medal goes to Chen Hung Ling/Hsieh Pei Chen (TPE) and Yohan H.Wiratama/Chau Hoi Wah (HKG).
What a huge surprise! Korean MS Choi Ho Jin wins gold medal to eliminate overwhelming fave in this event Lin Dan, 21-19 ; 21-18. MS individual event : Gold -- Choi Ho Jin (KOR) Silver -- Lin Dan (CHN) Bronze -- Hsueh Hsuan Yi (TPE) & Shon Wan Ho (KOR)
"The God of Badminton"- Lin Dan lost to unknown player from Korea 19-21, 18-21. What happened to him actually?
Good for Choi Ho Jin! I'm surprised but LCW should look at this for motivation to get the better of Lin Dan next year. So LD lost to a total of 3 opponents this year : LCW, CJ and Choi?
