It should be.. ..one heck of an entertaining Finals day, with quite a few different faces playing against each other in the Finals!!...Of course, it's a good thing there are M'sian representatives in the Finals, as BC will be populated by the many M'sian fans/supporters..And let's hope our kwun will have plenty of rest again tonight, so he'll be refreshed tomorrow to provide us with more coverage & pics...
I assume you didnt watch the Semis just now. If you did, you would have heard the commentator said, meet again tommorow. Match starts at 1 pm. Look at the TV guide in tommorrow's newspaper.
I remember the RTM commenter mentioned that there will be 'live' telecast on tomorrow. My Malay is not terrific but I hope I didn't misunderstand. Anyway, I couldn't wait to compute the new world rankings on coming Thu. MS 1(no change) LD 2(-) LCW (no matter who wins) 3(-) BCL (no matter who wins) 4(-) CJ 5(-) PG 6(+1) SDK 7(-1) TH 8(-) KJ 9(-) CY 10(+1) CH 11(-1) Simon 12(-) BP 13(+1) PSH 14(-1) Wacha 15(-) Shoji 16(-) WCH 17(+2) Hafiz (Despite of yoyo-ing again, he has officially regained MAS No.3 status) 18(-1) LTS (Coz he skipped CO) 19(-1) Susilo 20(-) Ng Wei 21(-) Roslin MD 1(-) KKK/TBH 2(-) CY/FHF 3(-) MK/HS 4(+1) CTF/LWW 5(-1) JJS/LYD 6(-) CW/TG [If GZD/XZB win ... 7(+6) GZD/XZB 8(-1) JE/MLH If they lose ... 7(-) JE/MLH 8(+5) GZD/XZB ] 9(-1) LJJ/HJM 10(-1) LH/AYC 11(-1) Hendra/Joko 12(-1) Tadashi/Keita 13(-1) Shuichi/Shintaro 14(+2) LP/JR 15(-1) Njoto/Wiratama 16(-1) Michal/Robert 17(+3) Zakry/Fairuzizuan 18(-1) TBS/OSH The two TPE pairs, currently ranked 41st & 49th respectively, will leap up to somewhere between 28th-33rd. Usually I don't compute WS but since we have a relatively new face in the final, let's see ... 1(-) XXF 2(-) ZN 3(-) ZL 4(-) LL 5(-) PHY 6(-) WC [If WMC wins ... She and XHW will share 7th place ... If she loses ... 7(-) XHW 8(-) WMC ] 9(-) YPY 10(-) Petya 11(-) Tine 12(+1) ZM 13(-1) Eriko 14(-) YJ 15(-) Juliane 16(+1) Tracey 17(+2) JJY 18(-2) Diehl 19(-1) Maria Kristin
XD Sudket/Saralee[THA] VS Nova/Liliyana[INA] Sudket play quite well today, but i pick INA to win! WS Xingfang XIE[CHN] VS Mew Choo WONG[MAS] Mew Choo all the way!!!!! MS Chunlai BAO[CHN] VS Chong Wei LEE[MAS] Chong Wei is the winner!!!!!! WD Jing DU/Yang YU VS Ling GAO/Tingting ZHAO[CHN] i pick CHN to win MD Zhendong GUO/Zhongbo XIE[CHN] VS Markis/Hendra[INA] time for world champion to shine
Perfect setup to slap the mighty China in their faces on their own turf. I'd love to see Li Yongbo's face if that happens. On the other hand, they could turn on the style and crush the outsiders, mercilessly sweeping away every medal they can win. I hope it's the first - will be good for badminton in the sense of competition getting stiffer, unless you're Chinese of course! Negative publicity to the petition though...
That said, here are my winners pick: Sudket/Saralee[THA] VS [2]Nova/Liliyana[INA] Doesn't matter but I do have a soft spot for Lilyana Natsir - she was the reason why I actually remembered there's a BC around, otherwise I'd be a full football guy. [1]Xingfang XIE[CHN] VS Mew Choo WONG[MAS] Sounds crazy that I'm not supporting my countrywomen? This selection is more of a rational thing rather than patriotic. My heart says WMC but my head says XXF will do her in. [3]Chunlai BAO[CHN] VS [2]Chong Wei LEE[MAS] Will be a very tight game this, can Bao shed his bridesmaid tag? I do think LCW will defeat him but it will be a very close game. Jing DU/Yang (F) YU VS [5]Ling GAO/Tingting ZHAO[CHN] I really don't care about this one but the Chinese gets my vote, Gao Ling's sunny smiles won it for me. Zhendong GUO/Zhongbo XIE[CHN] VS [3]Markis/Hendra[INA] I think Markis/Hendra will win this one.
i know how you feel.. i had a picture with her... she's cuter than in picture .. i was 'nervous' when taking picture with her ..he..he
INA 2 Malaysia 2 China 1 Bravo Kido/Hendra..you are the men!!!! Bravo LCW...you are the man.....!!! Bravo MC..you are the woman!!!! Bravo Nova/Lyliana...you are the (wo)man!!!
matches are starting at 1pm tomorrow. here are my pick based on what i have observed. XD: Saralee/Sudket vs. Nova/Lilyana i pick the THA pair this time. they have been on fire. today they also played pretty well and they disposed of Xie/Zhang pretty convincingly. WS: XXF vs. WMC i pick XXF. XXF in much better shape than Zhang Ning and ZN got pretty close to WMC. MS: LCW vs. BCL LCW. he is on fire. very sharp tactically as well as technically, and superfitness. on top of that BCL never play well against LCW anyway WD: Du/Yu vs. Gao/Zhao ZhaoTT improved a lot especially with Gao, but i expect the youngsters going to try hard to beat their seniors and make a name of themselves. MD: oh boy. this is a tough one. Xie/Guo has been through tests from Japan, Korea, Indonesia and Malaysia, can they beat the world champions? i will leave this one as a tie. 50:50.
MATHES INVOLVING MALAYSIANS ONLY!! LEE CHONG WEI Vs BAO CHUN LAI WONG MEW CHOO Vs XIE XING FANG i hope and pray that both single title will be grap by malaysian player!! i hope that wong mew choo can give a good fight to xie xing fang!! Let's cheer for wong mew choo!! i believe that lee chong wei can give another good fight to bao chun lai also!!! LEE CHONG WEI & WONG MEW CHOO!! you both are rockZZz
This is the 4th final for BCL at China Open N he always became runner-up at 3 last CO. Can he have 1 step ahead N stand on podium to claim his 1st title this year???Hope so
