..abt this CHN's "weakest link" in this JO argument, after seeing the initial draws and now the remaining draws and who's left in the respective draws, imo, i see their WD as the weakest link. Going by current form alone, their MD pairing of CY & FHF would be no.3.
You may be right, CHN WD is missing her usual suspects. MD, looks like CHN has one pair to the final. LCW prolly has to beat out 3 CHN in a row to win it all and with a suspect back problem...hmmmm!!!
LD has the best chance of beating LCW. It is increased when LCW has to go through other chinese MS first. LD staying lower in ranking is an advantage(since he is selective in tournament it is hard for him to be 2nd rank) so he need not have to face LCW early. When in tournament where his brothers in arms stand a good chance of winning he will step off. Yes it is a risk like in AE this year. BCL was 'hot' until he met KT who was on fire(one hit wonder) and got injured during the match and lost. CJ managed to stay on script and won in WC. Hey this is just my opinion if you don't like it, sorry. Shoot if you like, I don't care and won't reply. How come PSH is LD nemesis when he lost 9 and the one he won was suspicious. Yes he did give LD problem sometimes but I think people here had overrated his abilities. Look he lost to TH 8 times. TH isn't the TH of old.
Because LD does not lose often so when someone beat him like PSH, people tends to over-emphasize the 'conquerors'...and like the KOR fella CHJ who is on record as the only player who has a winning record against LD 1-0, so where is he now? Cannot even get out of qualifying round
Staying low in ranking actually gives a higher chance that you meet LCW early. Because only the 2nd seed has a 100% chance of meeting the top seed in the final, zzz.
In the WC10, MAS had one representative in the final to prevent a clean sweep but failed. Let's hope this time MAS will have two and with other nations playing their part, we will have a more interesting final day.
So after the semi final today, it seems like China have their representative in EACH category. Quite impressive once again.. Now it's up to MAS World number 1 Lee Chong WEI or Koo/Tan to break the Great Wall Of China. Can they make it this time? psst, hope the chinese taipei xd pair who is currently playing now proves me wrong..
All China finals in WS, WD and XD. Malaysia vs China respectively in MS and MD. Both have less than 45% chance to stop their China counterparts, what do you think? Any chance that one of them causes an upset?
Actually I was kidding abt my statement above, it was my act of desperation in Chn might sweep title again 2mrow...
That dreaded BC poll has shown up.. ..i am looking at the poll result and so far the "5, clean sweep all titles" option is holding up and still leading...if it still leads til the start of the Finals, i just hope there won't be another "BC Poll" jinx coming..
Situation similar to last week's..: all chinese entries, only two entries are there to prevent the perfect.. Last week Ko/Yoo and Tine failed, let's see if the Malaysian power can make better...
