    Wow! Simply amazing!

    For those of you fortunate enough to watch it: were the Danes that good, or were Kim/Ra just not performing?

    I guess there's no need to say "hopefully". Congratulations JR. Now, onto Nathan Robertson/Gail Emms and then to the gold medal match.

    Danes were amazing. Jonas especially fast on the net. Solid defence. Olsen great on the net.. stood her ground. Koreans looked bewildered.

    This is certainly THE upset of this tournament. I have viewed the mixed doubles as little more than a formality for Kim/Ra.

    It's possible that we have just watched the end of the Kim/Ra era. And maybe the beginning of a new one for Jonas... They still have to topple the Chinese pair though... But right now, anything feels possible!

    :eek: :D
