    dammit! this is definitely not a good day. first sang/zheng get kicked out, and now cai/fu

    gees, so now china's out of the men's doubles.....oh well, i still support cai/fu and they're still my fav men's doubles pair :D :D :D

    this year's games is certainly turning out very well for the danes (with the exception of camilla)

    The Europeans seem to be doing quite well so far in the doubles events. WD has 3 European pairs in Semis, and are doing well against the asians in MD and XD too.

    It's now Bao Chunlai against Park Tai Sang. I wonder if Bao will be as "dodgy" as Chen. He's been a bit weak mentally before, but seems to have toughened himself up lately.

    I think the doubles style of China, Indonesia, and Korea are quite different. Malaysia I'd say is like a combo of Chinese and Indonesian but leaning more towards Indonesian. Danish doubles I think has changed the most in recent years. To me they play a lot like the Koreans now.

    Bao won last encounter 3 and 10 at Swiss Open, says Mercer
    But Park draws first blood and a misjudgement by Bao gives Park a 2-0 lead

    Bao is starting very slowly, making misjudgements and bad netshots.
    4-0 to Park already.

    Park smashes wide
    No weak backhand to aim for unlike Lin Dan.
    Good net drop gives him 2-4
