Apart from that, Maneepong was also busy preparing with his marriage. Awaiting anxiously for this dynamic pair action again.
Bodin Isara fiercely punched Maneepong and he got banned for 2 years. I do not think Bodin will play again with Maneepong ever. Bodin is playing with: MD Nipitphon Puangpuapech XD Savitree Amitrapai
Bodin suffered a knee injury in yesterday's final. Hopefully its not serious. My heart goes out to Bodin/Nipitphon as they lost 2 finals in a row. They seems to be a dynamic pair and have a good chance to make the Super Series Finals.
He likely overextended himself playing both MD and XD for a few tournaments in a row, especially in MD where he continued playing all the way to the finals. He probably should just focus on MD for now. I like his new style which he showed since playing in the India Badminton League. Never say die. And his new partner, Nipitphon has improved a lot over the past year, which has allowed their pairing to progress all the way to several finals. Although, I have to add that he still has silly spells of simple errors amongst his flashes of brilliance.
saw Nipitphon's former partner is now the coach, no wonder this new pair Bodin/Nipitphon getting stronger...
wow, that's his partner turn coach... much like malaysia jeremy gan who won the world junior champ but decided to become coach because he realise, h edont have what it takes to be atop player
Maneepong Jongjit is comeback and currently playing at India IC this week (last week also at Malaysia IC). His partner now is Nanthakarn Yordphaisong. Do you think it's just in time before Thomas & Uber Cup Finals 2018 in Bangkok?
Maneepong was so talented and underrated. Hope he makes up for lost time. Definitely top 10 material with Bodin Isara
Maneepong Jongjit/Nanthakarn Yordphaisong won India IC 2017, they beat Malaysian pair, Aaron Chia/Wooi Yik Soh 21-6, 21-9

Bodin Isara/Maneepong Jongjit will play their third comeback tournament in Singapore Open next week. And they will also join Vietnam Open (Super 100), 3 weeks after Singapore Open. At the Vietnam Open, there is a chance they will meet another comeback pair from Korea (Ko Sung Hyun/Shin Baek Cheol). Let's hope the draw will make this wish come true (both pairs will play qualifying rounds).
Good to have them back. Will be interesting how far they can go. Same for Ko/Shin, what is even more exciting for me as I loved the spectacular Korean MD style.
REALLY heartwarming to see them play together (and pairing well too!), after the debacle a few years back. Redemption.. is a powerful emotion.
