    I knew he would lose, but I didn't think he would lose this clearly. But he had to play two qualifying matches and was up against Chen Jin, so...

    You're right, BAM should invest in him and train him, because he clearly has potential.

    Lim Kenn is no longer young I think. He should be around Chong Wei Feng/Liew Daren's age now, which is about 24. And I believe that with him out of regular training, Liew Daren and Chong Wei Feng are better than him now. Lim Kenn can't catch up so quickly. I don't think he should go back to BAM.

    NPL/WKW are locked in a tight battle with the WR#5 in the rubber game. Keep it up girls!

    Lim Kenn quit BAM quite some time ago to further studies in Europe. So, no more full time badminton for him, same goes for Stephanie SHalini. Should be same age with TCS.
    THe fact that he can somewhat maintain a standard of play(better than Pei Wei CHung, lol) is already good

    Chen Jin not in a mood to fool around. A dark horse in AE? ;)

    They definitely play in tournaments. Stephanie played in the Austrian International Challenge, WS and XD.

    coming to a court near you...
    Here's a crazy one.

    Having won the 1st game 21-17, WMC led 18-10 in the 2nd and was seemingly on her way to wrapping up the match.

    Seemingly I said. In a monumental Hafiz-like collapse, she proceeded to bottle it and in no time Salakjit had game point at 20-18. Yup, that's right, 10 points on the trot.

    Fortunately for the MAS #1, she managed to compose herself and reeled off 4 points of her own to take the game and match 22-20.

    Yoyos of the world unite!

    Must say I love the lighting they have this year. Dimmed stands and spotlight on court, a little too early for my taste but still looks pretty sweet ... AE/DK style.

    If Lee Yong dae/Kim Ha Na are to become a permanent pair replacing retired Lee Hyo jung, this pair will become huge......

    #1 seed Sudket/Saralee were beaten by Nikolaenko/Sorokina and home fav #4 seed Fuchs/Birgit beaten by soon-to-be-dominated-pair Lee Yong dae/Kim Ha Na.

    Today matches were full of chunk of upsets, gotta love it.
