    PAR blasted by Big Boys [too]!

    You are not alone fellas!

    Hidayat, Taufik, is gathering his buddies to cause furore about the Point-A-Rally scoring! Here is a paragraph from what was reported in a newsdaily, Indian Express :

    "This will be Hidayat’s first tournament according to the new rally-scoring system which awards points after every rally and the game is decided at 21. He hardly seemed happy about it. ‘‘I don’t like the new system at all and so far as I am aware, none of the top players like it either. It’s too fast. I am going to take it up with the other players during the Thomas and Uber Cup finals in Japan and see what can be done,’’ he said. Recently, World No 6 Dane Peter Gade Christiansen had blasted the new scoring system as well."

    So keep up your patience chaps, the PAR era might be over soon enough. Experiment over, results learned, mebbe by TUC Finals coupla months later.

    Long Live the Rebellion! :)
