Hi Hagane,

Taiwan's Women's Doubles Pair Chien Yu Chin - Cheng Wen Hsing now World Rank#7

[FONT=Bitstream Vera Sans, sans-serif]Hi LilyC, [/FONT] ​

[FONT=Bitstream Vera Sans, sans-serif]Just received this report from Malaysia... [/FONT] ​

[FONT=Bitstream Vera Sans, sans-serif]This time, Malaysia's Wong Pei Tty – Chin Eei Hui will play against your Taiwan's Chien Yu Chin - Cheng Wen Hsing in the Women's Doubles @Asian Games, Doha 2006. [/FONT] ​

[FONT=Bitstream Vera Sans, sans-serif]I met Wong Pei Tty and Chin Eei Hui, and their coach Cheah Soon Kit, when they were here for the Commonwealth Games, Melbourne 2006. They are a very strong pair... in fact, they won the Gold Medal in Melbourne. [/FONT] ​

[FONT=Bitstream Vera Sans, sans-serif]Your Chien Yu Chin - Cheng Wen Hsing combination is now World Rank#7. Based on that, they are just a little bit stronger than Wong Pei Tty – Chin Eei Hui, now World Rank#9. [/FONT] ​

[FONT=Bitstream Vera Sans, sans-serif]So, their match could be go either way @Doha 2006. [/FONT] ​

Badminton/Asian Games: Coach: Pei Tty-Eei Hui can deliver medal in Doha[/FONT]

[FONT=Bitstream Vera Sans, sans-serif]MALAYSIA have not won a medal in the Asian Games women’s doubles event since 1970 and coach Cheah Soon Kit wants his charges Wong Pei Tty-Chin Eei Hui to end the drought in Doha.
[/FONT][FONT=Bitstream Vera Sans, sans-serif]
In fact, Malaysia have only two women’s doubles bronze medals to show from the Asian Games — the first through Tan Gaik Bee-Ng Mei Ling in 1962 and Rosalind Singha Ang-Teow Siew Bee in 1970 — but Soon Kit believes Pei Tty-Eei Hui can achieve a medal finish in Doha.

The reason? Asian Games rules only permit two pairs per country for individual events, thus allowing overwhelming favourites China to win a maximum of two medals.

This leaves two medals to be fought for and Soon Kit wants his players to take the initiative and make up for the World Championships disappointment in Madrid.

Pei Tty-Eei Hui had the opportunity to make the last four in Madrid but lost to China’s No 4 Zhang Yawen-Wei Yili in the quarter-final.

China clinched all four medals in the World Championships with Gao Ling-Huang Sui taking the title.

"They (Pei Tty-Eei Hui) have won the Commonwealth and Sea Games gold and now the target is to win a medal in the Asian Games. They have an outside chance of achieving it," said Soon Kit.

"The fact that there are only two pairs from China will increase our chances of winning a medal. As long as we can avoid the two pairs from China in the quarter-final stage, Pei Tty-Eei Hui can get into the medal round.

"Their focus now is to become tactically wise and have more patience especially when they play an attacking game. This is where they always make mistakes against top pairs as they try too hard to kill off the rallies and are disappointed if they fail to do so."

Among other pairs Pei Tty-Eei Hui will have to contend with are South Korea’s Lee Kyung Won-Lee Hyo Jung, Cheng Wen Hsing-Chien Yu Chin of Taiwan, Saralee Thungthongkam-Satinee Changkrachangwong of Thailand and Indonesia’s Gresya Polii-Jo Novita.

Pei Tty-Eei Hui made their first breakthrough when they won the women’s doubles gold in the 2005 Manila Sea Games and then clinched the Commonwealth Games gold medal in Melbourne in March.

In order to receive a good draw, Pei Tty-Eei Hui must also regain their position in the top eight after they dropped to ninth position last week.[/FONT]

Japan Open 2006: Sony Dwi Kuncoro challenge for Lee Chong Wei

[FONT=Bitstream Vera Sans, sans-serif]
Hi everyone@ccc, [/FONT] ​

[FONT=Bitstream Vera Sans, sans-serif]I've just received this report from Malaysia. [/FONT] ​

Japan Open 2006: Sony Dwi Kuncoro challenge for Lee Chong Wei[/FONT]

LEE Chong Wei, after his failure in the World Championships, must start his revival the hard way when he was drawn to play Indonesia’s Sony Dwi Kuncoro in the second round of the Japan Open which begins in Tokyo on Wednesday.
[/FONT][FONT=Bitstream Vera Sans, sans-serif]
Sony challenge for Chong Wei

Chong Wei, the second seed, and two-time Sea Games champion Sony received byes in the first round. Sony has beaten Chong Wei twice but the wins came in the 2000 World Junior Championships and the 2001 Hong Kong Open but the Malaysian has shown rapid progress since then.

Sony himself has been struggling with his form since clinching a bronze in the 2004 Athens Olympics but, strangely, always performs above himself when facing a Malaysian shuttler.

In contrast, Chong Wei is often vulnerable in preliminary rounds and it will be a test of character for the 24-year-old World No 2. Should Chong Wei survive, he should not have problems reaching the last eight where he is expected to meet Thailand’s Boonsak Ponsana or Chen Yu of China, who has beaten the Malaysian twice this year.

Assuming Chong Wei progresses, he gets a golden opportunity to settle a score with Bao Chunlai of China who came from behind to beat him in the quarter-finals of the World Championships in Madrid, in the semi-finals.

Hafiz Hashim, much to his bad luck, will have world champion Lin Dan of China awaiting him in the last eight.

Older brother Roslin plays Qiu Yanbo of China in the first round and, if he rolls on, is expected to meet Chen Yu, also from China, in the second. Kuan Beng Hong’s hope of ending his recent run of first-round defeats will be tough as the Malaysian meets Indonesian Simon Santoso in his opening match.

In the men’s doubles, scratch pair Koo Kien Keat-Tan Boon Heong, who are being viewed as Malaysia’s pair for the future, have an outside chance of reaching the quarter-finals.

Boon Heong replaces Chan Chong Ming, who is still mourning the death of his father two weeks ago, and the new combination’s first test will be against Zhang Bo-Xie Zhongbo of China in the second round.

In the women’s doubles, Wong Pei Tty-Chin Eei Hui are expected to reach the last eight but they must first overcome South Korean scratch pair Lee Kyung Won-Jung Youn Kyung in the second round. [/FONT][/FONT]

Some players@CCC do not want to play competitively

Hi hkhung,

As you know, my main job/objective is to teach players to enjoy the skills in Badminton and to have some physical exercise in the Game of Badminton, not necessarily to play it competitively.

Some players love only the the Social aspects of Badminton, while others are only interested in Competitive Matches.

To some, playing Competition is too stressful.

However, for you, I will ask players@CCC at all our different venues if they would like to join your team.

Cheers... chris@ccc
