who do you think will be the next potential european to step and gain the World Ranking #1? Last time was Gade in 1998... and before him there were many... like Morten Frost, Lars?, Peter R.... i think Or how about, when will be the next time a player not from an asian country take number 1 at singles? lol quick fact, Gade won Men Doubles in a 1996 junior world champion. probably contributes to his attacking style of play.
Well, there is no one I can see at the moment who is anywhere near the level or potential to be No.1, therfore I say at least 4 yrs there won't be anyone. Gade was No.1 at some point in 2006 I believe.
probably the next world junior champion.. would be a good contender for the top spots. isn't that usually the trend?
I don't follow Junior badminton too closely, but I don't know any any euro MS at the top of the sport......
Haven't you noticed that Viktor Axelsen has become WJC in MS last week? I guess it's Axelsen that could become the next great Danish hope in badminton.
Lol - Egg on my face! But then again, no one mentioned him before he won.......... And yes I did: http://www.badmintoncentral.com/forums/showthread.php?t=84219&highlight=victor
