    I did ask TH why he suddenly likes to play in China...he said that he needed to be in top 8 ranking so he can be seeded from next year...at the same time...He loves Shanghai....TH funded himself with these 2 tourneys...I think Paulus will go with him...He has no idea about SS finale....all INA players talked about it when SS finale is on the website...most of them complained that BWF did not let PBSI know ....Vita mentioned that if she knew she would fund herself with Flandy for HKG and china Open...

    Who knows, maybe BWF will relax the rules this 1st time so that most if not all top players qualify ......

    I mean, even BWF knows top players draw the crowds ......

    Hauge, who's Lee Jiman? Do you mean Lee Jae Jin/Hwang Ji Man? Agree with you that BWF announced final decision about Masters Final quite lately, probably to make sure sponsor availability.

    You nailed it on the head .... :)

    That's why I believe for the first SS Finals, the rules might be relaxed a bit, given that the BWF notification was late.

    Besides, those of us going there need to get our money's worth ...... :D

    How many more do they need??..

    ..2 more pairs??..If so, we have the CAT sisters (Louisa & luyi80), pjswift and her friend, Jen.;)
    After all, they've followed the SS (on BC of course), at least 8 times, than some of the players out there..:cool:
