    Two beautiful serves by Howard over the tops twice in a row for aces. The indos are getting to anxious.

    It should be all over for the Indos....and that is a warning to Candra/Sigit not to underestimate team USA tomorrow night.

    USA won 15-9, 15-13.

    Another spectacular victory for them.

    Geez, will this fairy-tale run come to an end tomorrow or will it be the beginning of something very big?

    Maaf temanya dari Indonesia (Sorry friends from Indonesia). but we are very happy with our US team, but we recognize that it is half expatriate Indonesian.

    Its all over...15-13 in the second game.
    The dream final between team USA and Candra/Sigit.....
    They have met in the All England this year with Candra/Sigit winning in 2 tight sets 15-13 15-12. So, it wouldnt be as easy as against CCM/KKK for sure,

    If the USA wins the world Champs, it'll be on the front cover..... (or at least have a small appearance if likely) in newstands across the USA and badminton's popularity MIGHT spark. But if Candra and Sigit win, the same thing will either happen or everything would just be the way they've always been and that being no news on badminton at all.

    pardon me, but who is this "kkk" person? I'm sure you guys know what "kkk"
    stands for in the U.S, wouldn't it be more appropriate to address this player by
    his first/last name, instead of something that has a not-so-good reputation?

    Again, as I mentioned in my post yesterday, as much as I would like to see an All-Indonesian final, this USA pairing is not easy to beat. Coupled with the marvellous home support, they have surpassed all expectations and made it a very memorable WC for the Aneheim crowd. IBF would be very very pleased with their achievement and it is good for the sport as well.

    Luluk/Alven...as I have said many many times....are not mentally strong (especially Luluk!). They should win this match, no doubt about it...but...there's that X factor that somehow put the balance in favor of team USA. Both teams that have lost to team USA in the past 2 days have started badly...and they managed to exploit this to the full effect.

    Candra/Sigit better take control as early as possible!

    Oh, so I suppose "Koo" or "Kien Kiet" would probably do ... :)
