    thanks for the results, it's quite difficult to get any news as their web site isn't updated very often...

    True, I was looking at the main page which was still showing last update on Thursday 21st August 2003 at 22:07

    Does anyone know why Sang Yang & Zheng Bo have withdrawn???

    Looks like Sang Yang's minor injury from WC '03 was reactivated again.
    I think Chen Hong is probably going to reclaim the S'Pore title but Chen Yu will put up a good fight though.
    Sad display by Zhang/Gao once again. They can destroy any competition but then loses tamely to Kim/Ra. Go Zheng/Zhang in XD.
    Looks like China's on pace for 3 golds again. That is unless Zheng/Zhang can work some miracle magic in XD (which I seriously doubt).

    Oh, and what happened to Mr. Susilo's secret tactics that he was going to use against Chen Hong? At least he played a better first game, but 2nd set same result.

    Forgot to add that I think Lars/Jonas are probably going to take MD now, compared to the field.

    when was the last time you saw a Singapore Open MD semi with 3 European and one Malaysian pairs?

    i think Kim/Ra has pinned down the weakness of Zhang/Gao.

    i had faith in Zheng Bo/Zhang Jiewen one/two years ago, and i am still having faith in them hoping they will finally find their game...

    First time Kwun... Does this suggest a miracle is going to happen? Will the unthinkable happen? I am not betting on it though.

    with all due respects, i am not planning to put any money on Choong/Lee. if i ever put down money on anybody out of the 4, it will be Jonas/Lars...

    I have all my respect for the 4 pairs.

    However, the fact is:

    1. Top korean pairs not here - still injury for Ha?

    2. Divorce of Candra / Sigit - still make me feel sad

    3. Injury for Sang Yang - Don't laugh, see what chinese MD pairs did in WC...

    Have to agree there. However, the drift is 'significant' in S'pore and Choong/Lee are former winners in this tournament (beat Ha/Kim and Candra/Tony that year!) I'd love to see that match:(
