yaya, congratulation to both of them... Maybe ZYL will be the future GL, hehe... playing both XD and WD also..
wow... this is my new WD pair IDOL! They play really good... hope to see them in a big Events soon... Good luck to them..
Cheng Shu and Zhao YunLei have just won: Japan Super Series 2008 China Masters Super series 2008 Macau Open Grand Prix Gold 2008
^^Hope they're not done yet..^^ ...although the competition field is not as competitive and full of all the big gun slingers, in their respective events, their accomplishments are no small feat... on that note, why stop at winning 3 titles in a row??..march on, ladies... *Btw, that Zhao Yunlei gal, she could turn out to be CHN's "next Gao Ling" (specialist in XD and WD). We'll see...
They play together since junior, right? if im not mistaken, they also won asian junior championship 2005 in jakarta.
Correct. Also, Zhao was the champion in 2004. In other words, all four finalists on Sunday were past Asian Junior Champions in girls' doubles. and don't forget that they were runners-up at the regular Badminton Asia Championships in JB in 2007.
why do u think so?? Zhao YL I think can be Gao Ling, as she can play both events and also has good power. Her stamina is good as well as her mental.... It's look like Gao Ling in the past..... She can become badminton legend soon....
Well it can still be refined tommy_bun. And I hope these two can be consistent, remember there's also Ma jin/ Wang Xiaoli Si Yun Wang/ Jinkang Zhang and Pan Pan/ Quing Tian to contend with. The internal battle for the slot in the chinese squad first team is fierce
cheng shu and zhao yun lei... played well.. hope they can win more title.... favourite pair for china after the retirement of gao ling...
It's great to see the young guns have a great start. However, I hold the same comments as in "Soni" thread, as the 3 events are lack of competition, due to top gun's absence. Only the time can tell whether they are the real deal, or still need a bit more time to be the leading horse.
