Can't confirm yet. With all the big names missing, I will be very selective. And if I am there, what information do you want me to collect?

Wow I just checked out the new version of the SS Finals participants. The WS and WD categorieshad sunk so low indeed.

Unbelievable.

So many players and pairs withdraws.

MS , MD and XD still very strong.



Charmaine Reid : BReak the records of all time. How on earth a player who NEVER win in any first round of SS ranked number 27 in SS rankings?

Because she play 10 SS events. Yes. 10 SS events and all lost in first round.

For LCW, this is a dream comes through that LD and CJ are not in, chances improve bigtime winning 2nd SSF especially playing at own 'kampung' (village)...imagine hitting birdies for 5 days and winning the SSF USD$40K cheque worth approx. 2 yrs wage for an engineer in MAS and in time for X'mas shopping for gifts for stewardess GF and chinese new year...life's good..thanks LYB, LD and all the comrades:p:D

Just checked the ticket info :

http://www.ticketpro.com.my/jnp/sports/badminton/301999-super-series-masters-final-2009.html

It used to be between RM10.00 to RM30.00 and free seating. Now they have level 1 & 2, with level 2 allocated with less seats and further away from the courts. With the withdrawals and high ticket prices, I won't be surprised that the earlier rounds on day sessions will be empty. Sad.....

yes, agree with you. Just like last year's event in Kota Kinabalu, early rounds matches will be full of empty seats u can see.

Maybe BWF can make better scheduling even if they did not want to cut out any events.

Look at 2009 scheduling as example:

March, April and May only had one event each month. But June had 4 events in a month. What??

BWF can put India open and Asia Badminton Championship in March. Then China or / and Hong KOng SS from Nov to April. Sudirman Cup in May.

Then NOvember should only have one or none SS events. Then they can put SS Master Finals in Nov intead of Dec.

Or they can just put two different events in same week like tennis. Like US Open and Thailand Open can play at the same time.

German Open and Dutch Open can also play at the same time as warm up before All England.

it's totally possible to get the most reasonable realistic time for the SSF... :)

Yeah, very sad scenario, like local school competitions, MSSJ.

Correct me if I am wrong, the last time they played in JB, they had a dispute with a line call and lost the first set, subsequently they retired early in the second set. To protest I think.

Now, Georgie...don't critic our CR, Canada Boleh representative...if CR pulls out, this SSF is even worse...hehehe!!:p

Don't jealous la, one tough birdie:D:p who knows lyb and CBA are so kind enough:cool:

Jealous, you got it wrong Georgie...just emphasize that without LD and CJ, LCW has a better than 50% chance of winning it all, and USD40K is >RM150K and that is far more $$$ than a typical professional worker makes in MAS in 2 years, and that is to play baddy for 5 days...the fact is LCW is so, so lucky to play for MAS who invest so heavily in baddy and see baddy as one sport that can bring her glory, LCW gets to keep 100% earnings, earn bonus, lifetime pension, endorsement, Datukship, etc. and attract stewardess (many of them lah..now, I am really jealous lah...hahaha!!), the point being for a high school dropout to make a fortune in a relatively short period of time, so what is there to complain about pressure, stress, etc. The real world is a lot worse and painful especially with the world economy in a tailspin. Sure LCW has tremendous talent but someone has to pay to groom that talent to be a world class player, and for that he should be thankful to the MAS government and MAS tax-payers.;)

A 'MUST' for LCW to win at this 2009 SSMF
