Tommy will be fined due to the yellow-card warning too. That is ridiculous. The guy is an independent player for god sake.

I think , he will be fined Only after 3 yellow cards . Isn't it?

Yup, that why I said it may have affected him. Money lost.

Not sure but GC said he will be fined. Poor fellow. He is one of the well behaved player on the circuit, unlike his opponent today. I kind of support him.

Lin Dan is clearly the better player today, that so-called "affected his (Tommy's) final point (at 17-20 down)" is unlikely to change anything, there can only be one outcome; to expect otherwise is, pardon me for saying, wishful thinking.

My predictions (MS):
Axelsen, Sugiarto

A player faces a fine of $500 (U.S.) after three yellow cards in a calendar year, and $250 for each subsequent yellow.

 

[Devendra]

it is because he is LD. he gets a pass by the umpire honored to have had the chance umpiring the game

LOL. True!

Tomorrow's schedule :


Zhang Nan/Zhao Yunlei vs Joachim Fischer Nielsen/Christinna Pedersen
Akane Yamaguchi vs Nozomi Okuhara
Lin Dan vs Viktor Axelsen
Christinna Pedersen/Kamilla Rytter Juhl vs Zhao Yunlei/Zhong Qianxin
Lee Yong Dae/Yoo Yeon Seong vs Fu Haifeng/Zhang Nan

The organizers could have scheduled Akane vs Nozomi as the first match but both ZN,ZYL and CP doing double duty, hence the above.

Nothing really because I will be having my baddy session and the 1st match clash with it.

when a player (or two) has to do double duty, usually XD is first and MD is last. You wouldn't schedule WD last because it would be embarrassing when half the arena do not stay for the last match! :crying:

Agree with you but why the crying icon? Further eleborate ( to borrow a term from my cyber badminton partner) Hehe.

 

[jkkwongnz]

If ZN and ZYL win both men double and women double as well the mix double, they will win three out of five gold medals in one tournament. Has this happened before in badminton history?
