2016 TOTAL BWF TUC Finals - Day 8 (22nd May) : THOMAS Cup FINAL

I may have to do that, but no sugar. Straight black coffee. But if the championship goes to 3 matches, I cannot sleep after coffee.

 

Thanks for correcting. That's the sole exception after so long I guess.

 

This high speed doubles for the veterans. Can they maintain the speed throughout?

 

Kolding is 32 cm taller than Ahsan. Talk about serving at face height.

 

Either way you still can't sleep because you are already too excited!

 

Ha ha ha you must place your bet... but be optimistic that this final has more than 3 matches

 

definitely, some of my Chinese friends,most of them are young girls,are talking about him during the past week. They all think he's very cute

 

Hendrawan seems affected from that ankle twist..

 

Hope that showboating from Ahsan doesn't cost INDO the match.

 

Diving is now part and parcel of badminton, not exclusive to swimming.

 

INA trails behind 2 points but just won back one 8-9.

 

Denmark are clear favourites from here I think. Axelsen's win has set the tone. I'm not convinced of Indonesia's other MS, and anything can happen with Ahsan/Setiawan. Also, I'm sure Ahsan/Setiawan are more interested in the Olympics. Ahsan seems to be playing a fool today.

 

I will compromise and make some caffeine free herbal tea during a break.

 

Setiawan. Hendrawan is LCW's master.

 

Not too good for INA as the Danes lead 11-8 at the interval.

 

Denmark ahead at 11-8. Off to get me a drink

 

Thomas cup would be as luxurious to Them as Olympics. LCW oleh!

 

Ahsan/Setiawan lost to this pair just a few weeks ago. Denmark winning Thomas Cup is almost locked in! Amazing what badminton has become in the last decade. First Japan, and now Denmark!

 

Only India seems to have not played their cards. What happened to SK this tournament?

 

And surprisingly, all at the expense of 'mighty' China!
But will China show its real cards at Rio?
