Want to beat Lee Hyun-il? Very easy, send Roslin or Kuan Beng Hong against him. He doesn't like playing rallying or defensive players. His game is almost like Kenneth, designed to frustrate attackers like Lee Chong Wei or Hafiz.

I agree. Kuan Beng Hong cross court drop is very beautiful.

Expected. But at least she stretched Mia (I heard). Good work MC. She still need to improve on her attack. Though she is more of a defensive player but cant always be that to win games especially when age catching up though she is still 21

some say she's too honest on court
doesn't like to trick ppl

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.

I think the Malaysian ladies are at a much better shape than our Indonesian ladies right now. At least, Wong Mew Choo is showing that she can compete at the highest level and she's still young isn't she? Wong Pei Tty and Chin Ee Hui have performed consistently over the past one year and I would rate this pair as equal to the other top South-East Asian pairs like Saralee/Satinee and Jiang/Li.

For MD, Malaysians do have the advantage of numbers. I count at least 2 young pairs who can make the mark and are already in the top 20 now (excluding Chan/Koo). These 2 pairs are Tan Bin Shen/Ong Soon Hock (20 and 21 years old, WR 11) and Mohd Tazari Fairuzizuan/Lin Woon Fui (WR 14). With Rexy's help, these 2 pairs can only be better in the future.

Of course, not to forget that there is another pair Gan Teik Chai/Abdul Latif Mohd Zakry who is ranked no 19 and last year's world junior champion , but this pair is still inexperienced. So, 5 pairs to rely on for the next few years...not a bad sign after all :) As for Choong/Lee, its a good idea to have them as a sparring partner to provide the experience, but, they only have at most 2 years left.

The most worrying must be men's singles (same as Indonesia). Lee Chong Wei is improving, but, he's still not a great player. Besides him, only Hafiz Hashim could be counted as a top player. Kuan Beng Hong is probably a player for the future....but others???

Wow...a good win for Boonsak. Now, if Sony can defeat Lee Hyun-Il, Boonsak should not be a problem :D

Well, Boonsak just lost to Sony the last time they met, but this time could have a different outcome. :p :p
