true, at least they shd be better prepared for the olympics of othr challengers (mia, jun, camilla, wang chen, xu, pi, yao, u name thm..)... its better losing hr and nw thn in athens... i believe ths is chn's WS 1st lost whn they participate in full team since last year JO (whch won by camilla martin)...
over confidence and under estimating opponents??? tht cd be seen frm bao vs ron match... bao ws seem clueless as wht to do (espec in the 2nd set) whn ron started attacking with well positioned smash... look at the bright side, fall now and raise up high later and peak in olympics...
Wow, how refreshing is this to see players other than Chinese beat the top Chinese players and win a big tournament! On the other hand, though, this is only one event, so, all you Chinese fans, don't be too disappointed and critical of your team. Well, I think it's good for the badminton in general to have these surprising results once in a while, if nothing else, just to raise the competitive and confidence level of the rest of the field. Yeh~
OMG, Wilfred might just be right about his predictions!!!! Why Will, why, did you have to pick those winners and jinx the CHN team??!! **sob sob** Could someone please hand me a tissue?
duh.. i hv weak heart and cant go on watching chn trashed.. off the tv before i throw it out of my window.. time for jogging... enjoy u guys...
even tho cai/fu lost...i think they played really well once they got into the game...fu's smashes from the baseline were really powerful and so were cai's from the front...if they do well in the 2nd, i think they might even win.. it was definitely the most exciting game so far..
just can't describe how powerful the koreans smashes. they aimed at the corner parts of the chinese sides or either at the centre of their opponents...made the chinese's racket collided a few times... Koreans were too quick in the first set..
