    The women double had to be re-drawn as it is against regulation to have 4 seeded pairs instead of 8.....

    Gail Emms and Donna Kellogg are playing in the WD and seeded as No.4

    .
    That is strange, isn't it ??? :confused::confused::confused:

    Nathan Robertson and Gail Emms are seeded No.4 in the XD, but they are not found on the Draw.

    However, Gail Emms and Donna Kellogg are on the Draw playing in the WD and seeded as No.4.

    :):):)

    Caution

    A word of advice for those attending the Singapore Open:

    Stay well clear of the Yonex stall at the stadium...
    ...they have massively overpriced just about everything :(

    For instance, the ArmorTec 700 Limited Edition is on sale for SGD 380 :eek:
    Barely four days ago, I bought it for just SGD 300.

    Be warned, folks!
