as much as i like lindan but i do agree that chinese dominance makes the game boring. so i hope to see more non-chinese players
Yes, I guess now its Lin vs Taufik chapter 3, funny that it took a few years for their 1st meeting, and now thy clashed 3 times within around 1/2 year
Wow. Sometimes it's almost unfair that there has to be a winner in each match. Still, like I said before about JR/Lars: the WC is over a month away. If Taufik's peaking now he's done something wrong in preparation!
Woooooooowwww! 96 mins, 2 sets, gade and taufik wow, that must have been really good, people who watched are so lucky, i had to stuck with only live score (well, still good tho, since i didnt know that there was live score), oh, it must have been good! anyway, what gao/huang did to danish pair was 'astonishing' i never knew that something like that could happen between world top 5 pairs anyway mag, how is that unfair?
i'm so dispointed to see peter lost this match. :crying: :crying: :crying: :crying: maybe this is dominated by the god.Taufik has a good fitness.
Wow!!!!!!!!!! Lee HI beat Bao 15-10, 15-4 strait game. Not bad and now semi final will be LinDan vs Taufik, Lee HI vs Chen Hong
lol...who is this guy http://www.worldbadminton.net/portal/desktopmodules/biography.asp?pnumber=11704
his record for the past 2 years is not that impressive but he in extremely good form for this Sg Open
Well, matches like that (Taufik/Gade) is as close as you can get to a "draw" in badminton. But, of course, one player has to win. And that match wasn't broadcasted -- it just makes me soooo frustrated knowing that I won't get to see it... Regarding the WD whitewash: Gao/Huang did NOT meet a world top 5 pair, mind you. Mette/Brita is a new constellation formed after Rikke Olsen quit playing internationally recently. This was their first tournament together. Still, 0 and 0 is pretty heavy... It's a result that's *very* rare, especially in doubles. I guess it shows how few mistakes Gao/Huang make.
duh i know who he is...i was replying to the previous poster nvm he also had to be enlisted for a while recently so missed a lot of training -------- how come they were seeded 5 then? was it due to mette's XD ranking?
I'm happy to see that Boe/Mogensen are producing quality badminton at the moment. They just whacked Luluk/Yulianto 15-9, 15-6! Perhaps it's *finally* time for Carsten Mogensen to climb the podium in a big event? And Lee Hyun Il is a class player. I don't see why everybody is so surprised about his wins?
