According to the report in sports.sina.com.cn, Bao Chunlai and Xie Xingfang also withdrew Meanwhile, Chen Jin was reported to have won yesterday too....(maybe first round's match, which was actually a bye) 据悉，由于奥运积分足够，原本报名参赛的鲍春来与谢杏芳均挂出“免战牌”。
But XXF did withdraw though from India Open as well as Wang Lin... Not sure about BCL as Gopichand denied this rumour ...
How about this? http://sports.sina.com.cn/o/2008-03-29/07373564522.shtml 他们除了参加印度公开赛，还将参加马来西亚公开赛。 Besides India Open, they(XIE Zhongbo/GUO Zhengdong) will also participate Malaysian Open. Another Malaysian Open? Why did Wang Lin withdraw? Another team decision?
India Open is shaping up to be another Macau Open... Even worse this time... we don't know whether the results are real or not.
They are referring to the Badminton Asia Championships to be held 2 weeks later in Johor Bahru. As for Wang Lin, like Wang Yihan she never comes into contention for an Olympic spot anyway. The race for China's last spot will focus on Lu Lan and Zhu Lin.
Just did a couple of digging for news.....and Bao Chunlai is CONFIRMED not playing in the India Open. From the Indian Express: Top seeds pull out The women’s field thinned down by a slab — with top-seed and world no 1 Xie Xingfang pulling out. The Chinese cited injury — through a letter submitted to the tournament director on Wednesday. Later at night, it was confirmed that men’s top seed Bao Chunlai would not be playing the tournament either.
