2011 Malaysia Open SS: Day 4 Quarter-Finals (Friday 21-Jan)

Walk overs again. What ever it is, it has happened to often. At the end it is the fans that suffer. Most people pay good money getting a ticket to watch the star players play. Imagine walkovers happening so often in other sports, Tennis without Federer or Nadal, NBA without Lebron or Kobe, Football games without Messi/Kaka...

It is not good in promoting the sport as well. As a badminton fan in general, I am disappointed.

I couldn't agree more...................
 
Walk over....Walk over...
This reminds me of an old song by Nancy Sinatra - These Boots Are Made for Walking. LOL

and there is one more............JYJ won w/o over Liu Xin.........

Why BWF didn't do something to prevent something like this.............

Does any1 know whether there's any written regulations regarding this? officials can say the players got injured and walkover for like zillion times, but do they even have to collect the medical record proof to BWF?

Man... Tien Mihm played the best I've ever seen him play, yet it's still not enough...

Though I'm LCW's fan, I was supporting Tien... He did very, very well. Keep up the form and I'm sure he'll win a title in the near future, cuz I don't think LCW could stop him all the time if he kept playing the way he did today.

And... Lin Dan. I loved the guy for his passion and love for the sport... I supported him even though he's sometimes unsportsmanlike like and everything, because I know he take the sport seriously... Now, he can just piss off for all I care. My image of him is getting worse and worse with each passing tournament. I don't care what reason he have behind it, it's just disgusting to pull out like that.
 
....

Guyz I have a question..

Is Chen Long or Nguyen Tien Minh a better player in your view ??

Who will win if they face each other ?

Please give honest remarks/comments.

Thanks a bunch.

Finger cross for INA camp...

Taufik vs Kenichi Tago
Simon vs Alam
Linda vs Wang Yihan
Bona/Ahsan vs Cho/Kwon
Hendra/Alvent vs Mads/Jonas

Hmm lets see how our youngster, Linda, fare against world #3 Wang Yihan.... So far,quite good perfomance by Linda here,she beat Yippy in 2 sets.... hope Linda can go further.... :)
