    I just watched the delay telecast of Camilla Martin vs Tracey Hallam at the end of their match. The last point for Tracey Hallam for her to win the match came from Camilla's net shot, which hit the net and the shuttle fell on Camilla's court. Before that, at Tracey's 11th and 12th point were from Tracey's effort though, by attacking Camilla Martin.

    that's quite disappointing. now the only European left who has hope against the Chinese is Mia Audina. practically all other potential rivals are eliminated. oh, Wang Chen is there too.

    Yup, she was lethargic and not the one I always hear from her...shouting and scolding whenever things don't go her ways. She didn't even promise that she would come back with a medal this time. Lack of confidence lead to her failure??

    I just watched an interview with camilla. She said that the wind was very anoying and that Hallam controlled it better than her. She also said that she perhaps couldn't motivate herself as much in comparasion to the last olympic games. Its very sad to end a big career like that, but thats how the game turns out sometimes.

    mighty Kim/Ra playing at the background. Polsana is pretty good considering how short she is.

    yeah. haha. :)

    polsana is quite impressive. fearless to the max. Gong imho is quite awkward in her movement, unlike her senior GongZC who has the most fluid movement.

    Polsana has a great hook backhand defense. got Gong the first time. second time gong read it so well and was so fast, she was grabbing it on top of the net!

    Great point by Gong. Went from being defensive to taking the offense.
