    Their "notional" points are higher than Ikeda/Shiota's ranking points: 38760 vs 31970. Since they are a relatively new pair with only 4 tournaments together the last 52 weeks, their points get averaged and multiplied, I guess to 8 tournaments for seeding purposes.

    Here it is, even saw it not too long ago and already forgot ...

    12.6.2 If the two players have a World Ranking as a pair but have competed in fewer than eight
    tournaments in the 52 week period, an adjusted ranking is produced by taking the pair‟s World
    Ranking points and adjusting as follows:

    Number of tournaments played in -Adjust by multiplying by:
    2 10/5
    3 10/5
    4 10/5
    5 10/5
    6 10/6
    7 10/7

    Those poor players. Can't even take forty winks without being in the limelight [​IMG].
    I really like her Cookie Monster eyebrows [​IMG]. They look so artificial.

    I might make a one off for the AE next week since it's my "lucky" tournament.

    Those are 2 mistakes he kept making. When I first heard it, I thought JJS has a new partner and his colleagues didn't inform him that Ko/Yoo lost.

    That was an amazing match. All went all out, but in the end, the youngsters were just a bit faster.....they also had one hell of a smash, quite often there was a small cloud of grip powder and feathers hanging in the air after one of their smashes^^
    Although I'm a bit disappointed one of my favorite pairs lost (second to JJS/LYD), congrats to Kim/Kim. They really did well - let's see how they perform against the very fit JJS/LYD (was it just the lighting or are they more muscular??)
    Too bad I can't see it live, back injury prevents me from sitting on those mini-chairs another day :/

    All right, enough said [​IMG]. I just hope that she can, against all odds, win tonight. It's really surprising why Ayane has withdrawn from the All England, given the superb form she is in, and also the fact that she is already a qualifier [​IMG].
