8. Chen Hong

10. Kenneth Jonassen
11. Hafiz
12. Bonsak
hehehe ... do u agree ?
I agree mostly,
except #5 - #9.
Actually your ranking from #5 - #9 reflects what I said early in this forum. I predicted Chen Yu would come out, while Bao CL will lost ground. Nobody agreed that Chen Yu the #5 best in the world before Thai open. Most people may still disagree Chen Yu as high as #5, including me, who is the only guy, and also the earliest guy here predicted Chen Yu's potential this time.
In my humble opinion, here is my list:
1. Lin Dan
2. Lee Chong Wei
3. Chen Jin
5. Taufik Hidayat - the one LD and his teammates so eager to win!
4. Peter Gade
6. Chen Hong - currently IBF 4th, 6* title holder, only 3nd to LD & CJ
7. Bao Cunlai - at least three 6* runner ups, really a runner up expert
8. Lee Hyun Il - only one 4* runner up, even Hafiz has a 4* title
9. Chen Yu - with great potential, but still no chance to WC! not much chance in the future either
10. Kenneth Jonassen
11. Hafiz - got a 4* title by killing only his elder brother
12. Bonsak
