    Why was BP vs BCL not a thriller?

    Because the match wasn't that close except for the 3rd set. Besides, it's not really surprising for Boonsak to win.:)

    Boonsak has been going thru a special training regiment in Bangkok. He did well the few tournaments lately. I'm not suprised if he can be a medal contender in the Olympic next year.

    A fitter sports person plays badminton. Squash is easier on fitness, I'll say. So change back to badminton to show us you're fit! :D;):rolleyes:

    Absolutely agree... Boonsak is a dark house in every tourneys, and this JO is no difference :p I heard he was trained in Fujian, and dats why he was able to beat CHN players.

    After Boonsak winning SG Open, he went to Indo and CHN Open as low seeded player (or non-seeded player). So I considered him as dark horse even he won SG Open. Lets see how he fares in JO... :)

    Looking at the match stats,I realised the match was not pretty; very error strewn esp. BCL in G3. Well, it's likely BP let go of the G2 and let BCL have a smashing time to tire him out for G3.
    But what do you mean by 'not really surprising for Boonsak to win'? Is BP superior in play? In what ways? The stats suggest Boonsak won with some luck.
    Anyone knows of BP 's head to head with SS?

    But Ronald is made in Singapore lor. Indonesia did not make him to be the top player he is today. At a young age , he went to Singapore to study and then play professional badminton. So, you cannot deny Singapore the credit.

    Boonsak is now full of confidence. He won the title in the universiade game a few months ago. A week before the JO, He won another title in the biggest event in his country (2007 Thailand All Championships) for the 7th times in his career.
