well said. good posting.Another misconception. If rank doesn't play a part, then the seeding is meaningless. Then there should not be any qualification rounds. Then those with very low WR should be permitted to enter tournaments and there should be no quota? I'm sure you know that the higher WR players do have advantages in any draw.
If you don't have an appropriate WR, then you may not be accepted into certain tournaments, like the SS Finals, the Olympics, the WC?
If you say that WR plays a part but upsets can happen, then I'll agree with you.
Li-Ning SINGAPORE Open SS 2013 : Day 1 & 2 (18th & 19th June) - Qualifying & R/32
- Thread starter CLELY
- Start date
so according to you, if LXR is on fire, only sindhu can stop her ? do u think sindhu can do it ?
Surprise, surprise! Who would have thought that SIN Robin Gonansa could have beaten the more experienced SWE Henri Hurskainen 23-21, 21-11?
Hopefully Robin can present us with more surprises later!
So Ashton and Robin still have a chance to move forward in MS.
Even i thought of it.. According to me, Ashton is better than Robin..

Problem for Sindu is that when angered, LXR can turn on a much bigger fire as she did recently against German soldier.

Ashton is well on the way to becoming Singapore's MS1, surpassing Derek if the latter is not working hard enough.
I recalled Lu Lan was the first person to beat LXR just after the LOG, yet till now she's nowhere to be seen and not called back to the CHN Nat'l team. What's wrong with CBA and LYB, don't they have eyes to see that anyone who can beat LXR no matter what form she(LXR)'s in must be champion material? Even some of us at BC can understand this.
I say, Tian Houwei's mother is wrong when she said to him after his spectacular defeat of Lee CW:" Just one match doesn't prove anything. Continue to work hard".

Do you think Li xuerui is unbeatable???
Nope, I dont think she's unbeatable but I do think that she can beat SN and Sindhu way more times than SN or Sindhu can beat her...
And the fact that LXR has started collecting major titles and has more than SN and Sindhu already 
? When it comes to titles, people tends to look at the bigger ones compare to the normal SS or GP titles.. So unless SN or Sindhu get a few major titles or people outside india will forget about them once they retire or maybe they can be like LCW, get many many many many titles and stay in WR no.1 for many many many many many many months, get feature in many many many many finals of major tournaments.. That way, people will remember him

Do you really want to know the answer?
Even "god" is beatable sometimes.
The so-called four "heavenly kings/gods" were beaten from time to time.
WR1 LCW was beaten by low-ranked youngster from China not too long ago ....
So did LD ....
Do you now know the answer?
And LXR has been beaten a few times before. Surely you are aware of that...

As dieter_spath said, LYB didn't set any targets for Team CHN at the INA Open and this tournament just as he didn't for the AE'13. I noticed that ever since CHN reached the pinnacle with a clean sweep of golds at the LOG,he's been like that and none of his charges who flopped at the early rounds got reprimanded even. That's just as well.
Nope, I..
dont think she's unbeatable but I do think that she can beat SN and Sindhu way more times than SN or Sindhu can beat her. -- Were you astrologist to know everything in the future..Lol..
