M&Q Version 1 from BWF: http://bwfbadminton.org/file.aspx?id=455574&dl=1 Ahh so sad Lin Dan withdrew :'(
Any reason why the whole CHN withdraw? Song Xue will be exciting to watch also. It's great to see Sayaka Sato in the list.
There are some very good names on the Men's Singles list. Nice to see the names of Badminton Central members Nicholas Bonkowsky and Toby Ng.
This will be my 4th consecutive US Open, heres hoping this time is a charm, I would love to play one of the top players 1st round. Was hoping Lin Dan wouldn't withdraw, that would have been a dream match if I had the opportunity to play him.
Maybe you'll get to face Christian "Lin D" Thomsen ... He's still in it. ;-) Best of luck , Nicholas.
I hope Bao Yixin won't withdraw. I just noticed most of the Chinese team that won World Juniors are competing.
Well, it seems like the INA team has withdrawn. Here's Version 2 released today http://bwfbadminton.org/file.aspx?id=459214&dl=1
Well, no presence at all from CHN, INA, KOR... it's a harvest season for the rest participants, esp. THA and JPN. ?? a little wondering why Juliane Schenk skips these back-to-back USA (and CAN) GP, she should fare very good chance to win title there... in particular that she won't attend the coming WC.
Wow! Bao Yixin is playing the XD with Chai Biao. This is a very exciting new pair! I think this pair will do a lot better than the old one with Qiu Zihan. Also, Zhong Qianxin is registered to play the WD with Bao Yixin. Does this mean that she is successfully recovered from her injury?
They're signed up for Canada Open too. Can't wait to see them play! M&Q Version #3 is out http://bwfbadminton.org/file.aspx?id=460277&dl=1 Biggest withdrawals are Porntip, Juan Gu, the #1 seeded Singapore pair in mixed, and Thailand's 3 WD pairs
Porntip is not gain her form after she didn't play badminton 2month ( university require-job training programme) so she must have more time for training and prepare for WC.
what universty does she study at ? and also i want to know if ratchanok attend university too ? Pisit should be busy with his study work in Chula, right? he is not around for a while now... miss him
Pornthip and Pisit study in Chulalongkorn university. Ratchanok study in Bangkok thonburi university.
