In Denmark there´s only tv coverage from WC, AE Denmark Open and Copenhagen masters.... badminton in denmark is like the 5th most played sport, so its not that popular like in asia even if we have world class players

Well, like I said, Malaysian players bowing out en masse in the Qfinal or Sfinal stages ... that is a Malaysian copyright I am not too disappointed with the results. There are certainly some refreshing breakthroughs. I believe this may be Wong Mew Choo biggest breakthrough. She has beaten some top players before, but never did I imagine that she can stretch Mia that much. Chin/Wong at least justified their seedings, although it wasn't too difficult. We still don't know whether they have won or lost in the semis, but for me, that's ok. In the MD, we have the numbers but not the quality, or not yet. Even top pair Chan/Koo cannot upstage old hands Choong/Lee. Old horses are good but we cannot rely on them for long. Fairuz/Lin (I thought they lost in the first round) gave a good account of themselves before bowing out to Chandra/Sigit. Also, some pairs (Tan/Ong for instance) lost to our own pairs, so can't really judge from there. It has to be disappointing for the MS. However, one must keep in perspective. It was only disappointing only because of LCW's loss in the quarters. Which other Malaysians did you expect to be in the semis anyway? Also, LCW lost to Lee Hyun Il, who has been a thorne in Malaysia's side. The Malaysians have to find a way to neutralise this plucky Korean. I still don't know the result between him and Sony, but I expect him to give a good fight.
Very strange, I would expect the badminton popularity to increase, since you've already had Danish World Champions in badminton. Denmark had better success in badminton than football, even if you did beat David Beckham's team 4-1.
Good to have M'sian WD in IO final...... Hope our WD coach Cheah Soon Kit can deliver more and more WD pairs like Chin/Wong soon!
The most played sport in Asia has to be football. I don't know where badminton ranks. Maybe it's somewhere like 5th also.
Good analysis...MD is getting numerous, but does not have indon's depth. MS is my main worry now, what is hapening to Hafiz? He does not seem hungry anymore!!!
