how come this year it is not being held? and one more question, since it is a high ranking invitational tournament, how come players such as LCW, LD aint invited?
From BWF calendar, Copenhagen Masters 2008 will be held from 27 to 29 December/08 to stage MS, WS and MD matches. Yup, this invitational tourney doesn't provide any ranking points only prize money and the high calibre players usually skip it except top-Danish shuttlers.
We're still awaiting.. ..our Danish' BC correspondents, yannie & anneskyt, to fill us in on this tourney...Maybe they're still in a holiday/vacation mode..
correct. it will be held as the earlier years... still long time to go.. http://www.badminton.dk/Events/Copenhagen Masters.aspx
Christmas is not Christmas without the Copenhagen Masters . yannie ...... When we think of the Copenhagen Masters, it's still a long time to go. But when we think of Christmas, it's coming so soon again. .
yeah this is my busiest semester in uni... i really hope time flies :crying: i need to go attend class all 3 days during copenhagen masters.. faint.. but can choose morning or evening class....
^^I hope you can stay concentrated..^^ ..during those 3 days.. Btw, speaking of time flying fast (i mean really fast), who knew you're halfway in your uni study already??..Pretty soon, you'll graduate & possibly be working full-time like most of us...
yeah thanks chris!!! i hope so.. haha... btw we're always running off-topic like my fb pics.. oops...
^^I heard...^^ ..since it'll probably be pretty darn chilly in Copenhagen, during this tourney, some say this tournamet is called: "The cosiest badminton tournament in the world!" ...hmmm, if so, then i hope they'll provide blankets, gloves, socks and warm Starbucks coffee for the spectators...
Sony and Kido/Setiawan had been invited and they have accepted....Th was not invited this time eventhough he expressed his desire to participate.
yeah... but still long time to go... but would be great if they can come. also i heard kkk/tbh have been invited, same with lin dan & xxf.
