I can't wait to download TH match against Chen Jin Sad to hear that, however Kido-Hendra does not perform up to the notch, they deserve that... Our only hope for GOld Medal is only from Towi/Butet which is not that convincing, i would say.
He got lucky not playing PG. Anyway, PG injured his knee so he could still beat PG this time if they met. Hope he will do well next round to guarantee Malaysia a MS final berth.
So sad, I think Koo was a bit unlucky especially at the card incident at the end ... feel a bit unfair and cheated. Anyway, Koo/Tan should have finished the match when they were leading 19-16. So frustrating!!!
i remember this also happened long time ago especially during AE 2006 MD finals when that time MAS pair Choong Tan Fook/Lee Wan Wah also received red card for breaking the umpire's rules and that moment was around rubber game and having match point...
It seems KKK's behaviour was totally unacceptable, he needs to get a suspension for putting the game into disrepute through his antics.
R2 has added eight more seeded casualties to R1's seven. They are: Sho SASAKI [6] Miyuki MAEDA /Satoko SUETSUNA [5] [TABLE] [TR="bgcolor: #ebfaff"] [TD]Shizuka MATSUO/Mami NAITO [6] [/TD] [TD][/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] Juliane SCHENK [8] Kien Keat KOO/Boon Heong TAN [6] [TABLE] [TR="bgcolor: transparent"] [TD]Jin CHEN [5] [/TD] [TD][/TD] [/TR] [TR="bgcolor: #ebfaff"] [TD][TABLE] [TR="bgcolor: transparent"] [TD]Wen Hsing CHENG/ Yu Chin CHIEN[8] Hung Ling CHEN/Wen Hsing CHENG [5] [/TD] [/TR] [TR="bgcolor: #ebfaff"] [TD][/TD] [TD][/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] [/TD] [TD][/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] INA's Dion and TH scored great wins over Sasaki and Chen Jin respectively. JPN suffered the most losses with three casualties followed by TPE's two. But TPE's young lady star Tzu Ying Tai-phooned the erstwhile sturdy German soldier JS into oblivion. But her THA counterpart, the famous Rat, was not as successful, falling into the hands of cutie Ji Hyun SUNG in the rubber. CNH's newly discovered MD sensation, Wei HONG and Ye SHEN discarded MAS' inconsistent hopeful KKK/TBH in a three-gamer. So CHN can now rely on at least three credible MD to face all opposition. UK continues to keep its XD flag flying with Adcock and Bankier continuing their fine run to eliminate the formidable Koreans, Yoo and Jang. So too did compatriots Robertson and Wallwork who dashed the hopes of TPE's Chen and Cheng (5) in relatively quick time. For today's QF, I wonder who will be next in line to fall. Will the Chinese wall be able to withstand the onslaughts? The following matches should be very interesting: * Li Xuerui (7) v Saina Nehwal (4) * Hong/Shen v Jung/Lee (2) * LD (2) v TH (TH is not even seeded. Can he surprise us by taking LD to 3 games?) * Chai/Guo (5) v Boe/Mogensen (3) * Tian/Zhao (2) v Pedersen/Rytter Juhl (7)
Loh, fantastic report. Save me a lot of time from working out who's (which seeds) in and who's out. Regardless, all the QF matches should still be very competitive and I am looking forward to more upset. The best will be TH beating LD. haha... probably will happen in my dream .... I think everyone is looking forward to watch another match of the year MS final between LCW and LD.
Taufik vs his buddy datuk could be the better choice - as long as Taufik is motivated as he was early this morning! lets hope for something new these days!
Did you even see what happened? I doubt it . It was TBH who wanted the court wiped, asking for it twice but denied and KKK was waiting for him to get ready (after also asking for towel down first but denied). Maybe he said something but no one watching it live could have seen that as a reason and all of a sudden the umpire pulls out a red card. KKK was only stunned and only after realizing it also cost a point did he get a little upset but nothing extraordinary. Injured his knee? Where'd you get that from .
why people think KKK's behaviour was totally unacceptable, yes he done something wrong... but nearly all player done the same things.... i though Taufik done the same thing on court as well... if not.... even worse( for time wasting and wanted the court wiped etc... u think of it... he done it lol) but well play for him..... Cj play just ok though... robo have his gas cut off ~_~ not even get him to 3rd set i think the umpire just purely watch too much football's refs given card to football players:crying:
Next time, the fatty should be smart. Just pretend to fall down. This will buy him time. Idiot.. lol.
Does anyone knows what was wrong with the shuttle in match Taufik Hidayat VS Chen Jin? Taufik is complaining multiple times in the first set? Was there something wrong with the shuttle? or has Chen Jin manupilated the shuttle? Even the head-referee was called for this...? (can't find anything about this here on BC) And, is this great match somewhere available with english comment (Gill clark)? Thank you guys.
