Doubt it. Wasn’t it Yonemoto who had a career-ending injury and yet nothing? It’s not happening. No points.
"within the halls of bwf it is known as 'the china rule'" - how do you know, you're one of them? "no other team blatantly manipulated the rankings via walkovers than china" - so other teams did it but not blatantly, and that's fine. Btw, the example baddielover quoted loudly , the 2004 OG incident, is not about walkover. Anyway, it's all water under the bridge now.
They still have time, while the Koreans are pretty much at the twilight of their careers. Mental frailty is probably the only serious issue Malaysian players have to improve. Sent from my M2007J20CG using Tapatalk
The ALL-KOR WD Final is well-fought, quality badminton, even for someone who's more into singles. Obviously, fighting for personal glory and prize money.
That is stretching things. Didn't Frost say something like, "Yes he is injured, but it's not so bad." There is quite a difference.
Yes but does that mean he won't be participating in world tour finals? What if others do not get enough points and he manage to stay in top 10? He has 16,800 points if i'm not mistaken after Denmark Open - who from the French Open will get so much points to make 16,800 points go under 10?
