Kido/Setiawan were under him until a couple months before Olympic 2008, then Kido staged a coup and removed him. I would say he had like 50% influence for that gold medal, maybe more.
Remember this tweet by Steen? Well, now CHN WD has Korean coach -- Seriously though, they need to enjoy playing the games more. More smile, be happy about it. I watched them play long time ago, didn't like what I see.
Steen's great experiences in Jakarta so far: 1. Couldn't understand the use of a heated toilet seat in a country that has summer all year long 2. A driver who didn't know what and where "(H)istora" was
Even i dont know where Istora is.. I'd rather watch Live at other stadiums. We always know how Istora will look like - maybe its better now but it used not to be that way.
QUARTERFINAL (01.00pm) => https://www.tournamentsoftware.com/...FEF920-EE97-42C3-B885-2CF80505A03C&d=20200117 Both local hopefuls advance without much problem as expected and extending their quest to seek glory at home soil. Anthony Ginting will face the look improved Huang Yuxiang who shocked him last week in MAS Masters while Jonatan Christie has defending champion Anders Antonsen, rematch of last year semifinal contest. Other quarterfinalists, strong contender Viktor Axelsen is favoured to pass Chinese qualifier Zhao Junpeng, an interesting clash will pit Shi Yuqi versus the on-fire HKG rival Lee Cheuk Yiu, Shi almost sent packing yesterday by Ng Ka Long, thanks to his superb comeback to seize momentum suddenly in deciding game, grabbed six consecutive points from 13-17 to 19-17, the Chinese is still trying to regain his confidence post injury lay-off. Another week, another surprise created by Chinese teen Wang Zhiyi, this time she edged out Akane Yamaguchi in close encounter, similar fashion with last week plot. Adding the upset list, reigning world champion Pusarla Sindhu was outlasted by Japan number three Sayaka Takahashi in long duration match. Several top names staying in the fray, Carolina Marin will set up a meeting with Korean prodigy An Se Young, Ratchanok Intanon gets Canadian high profile player Michelle Li and 6th seed He Bingjiao will find US hurdle, Zhang Beiwen. Host Indonesia and Malaysia dominate MD quarters with three representatives each, Ahsan/Setiawan have stern test Lee Y/Wang CL also otheir younger compatriots Alfian/Ardianto facing Astrup/Rasmussen who beat them in two previous meetings. The Indonesians prevail in nail biting match against Ou XY/Zhang N, 21-19 at third game. A contrast result for China women's doubles after created all CHN finals in KL then none of them who entering last eight stage including world number one Chen QC/Jia YF, suffering back to back losing to same pair, Japan #4 Matsuyama/Shida. Another notable setback is second seed Fukushima/Hirota who couldn't pass Danish combination Fruergaard/Thygesen in three games. Two Chinese frontrunners standing still and seem unchallenged so far, going smoothly to knock out their opponents. A big breakthrough for French duo Gicquel/Delrue to stun one of top five members, Puavaranukroh/Taerattanachai straight forwardly, 21-11 / 21-16 and will meet tough foe next, home favourites Jordan/Oktavianti.

No wonder many INA female fans are crazy about him Bring back the confidence is the most difficult thing for him, doubting himself about his truly capability.
toilets in indonesia are like this they squat when shitting, not sit they clean themselves with water, not toilet paper hotels have sitting toilets because they have many foreign guests some indonesian people try to imitate westerners by using sitting toilets i don't know if they use toilet paper too
Once you go water, you will never want to go back to paper, only in bad situation where you can't get water.
FajarRian has never lost in SS Final, if they go to Final, its highly likely they will bag the title. Takes a mighty ending to beat them like in AsianGames.
So, Takahashi (women's single) is the only one who was still in "the battle" until now (round 3). It's strange ^-^
Pramel lost? anyone watched? lol ..Dunno how this pair won the double salvo last year. Melati is way too fat. Id be surprised if ZhengHuang didnt win 12 titles + OG this year Jordan should just play in MD and let 'em win all. Since the big 4 is gone, XD has lost its luster and rightly is the last discipline.
What a surprise. French pair beats PraMel. I think the French are looking at long term target (Paris 2024). They already have good young players Popov brothers, also enrolled Peter Gade as a guide for some time. Too early to say, but if the French players keep performing well , it will be nice to see another European power alongwith Denmark.
He Bingjiao survived G2, trailing and then forcing the deuce and winning it to take the match in straight sets, 21-16, 22-20. Awaiting her tomorrow is Marin.
