    it's a traditional Cantonese herbal drink which has gained more popularity in recent years.

    It's a matter of money. The western fizzy drink makers always sponsor big sports events.

    The Live Score is not available yet despite the first three matches have been finished :confused: Danish XD, Uganda's Ekiring and TPE XD Liao/Chen progressed to second round.

    Does anyone else think that the shuttles are slow like many have speculated?
    The sounds of the smashes are akin to those at the Korean opens
