    There is a seperate article in this forum that talked about how LYB and LM sort of became "enemy" dated back to the days both of them were coaches in the China team. The article was from a Chinese paper in Malaysia, however, the article is in Chinese and mainly reciting both LYB and LM's own version of the story. I read it with a pinch of salt as it it not uncommon of media to stir up such issue.

    Basically what it said was at that time LYB was headcoach, and LM was coach of the Man Single team. There was a struggle for power and LM left. According to LYB, LM tried to out him by leading a group of experienced players but failed. And according to LM, he resigned because he could not agree to the method LYB used. But LM was quoted as saying that as long as LYB is part of the China national team, he will not return there.

    From a neutral and on hindsight, China team did manage exceptional success under LYB. But LM also proved he is a top man single coach but bring up players like Korea LHI and Malaysia LCW, and continue to challenge China's man single players with his pupils.

    How about LWW and CTF? Aren't they being sent to compete in either the Japan or China Open?

    It's make or break for these two in the Asian Games so they probably need a tune up match before Doha.

    From the past history, BCL always has upper hand against Taufik but always have tough match against KJ . But you always can't tell when you are against a Olympic Champion. We don't know how is KJ recent performance since he has withdrawn from WC2006 due to injury. Base on current form, BCL should advance to semifinal. If against LCW in semifinal, past records favor LCW.
    LCW is also having some tricky match in the early round especially against Sony Dwi Kuncoro where LCW lost twice with no winning record. In qtrfinal, LCW should have no problem if against Boonsak Ponsana but will have tough fight if against Roslin Hashim or Chen Yu. ( Either a repeat match in Korean Open or Thailand Open where LCW lost to them).
    So, the chances for BCL to meet up with LCW could be less than 50%.:D

    1. BCL have good record against TH :)
    2. KJ maybe not in form due to injury :D
    3. 3rd time lucky for LCW against Chen Yu :D
    Then BCL vs LCW in semi-final, BCL wins again :D I hope it goes like that... hehe:D

    Chong Wei's chance to bring smiles to badminton camp ahead of Asiad

    BY RAJES PAUL

    PETALING JAYA: National number one men singles shuttler Lee Chong Wei will only have one chance to bring back the smiles in the Malaysian badminton camp ahead of the Asian Games, which will be held in Doha from Dec 1-15.

    Chong Wei, seeded second, will begin his quest for glory in the US180,000 Japan Open which starts on Wednesday at the Yoyogi National Gymnasium.

    It is the only tournament for Chong Wei to strut his stuff prior to the Asiad because coach Li Mao has decided not to field him for the Opens in China, Holland and Denmark.

    National chief coach Yap Kim Hock said that Chong Wei would be kept under wraps after the Japan Open so that the Penangite could give undivided attention on his preparation for the Asiad.

    There were high hopes on Chong Wei at the World Championships in Madrid recently. But the top seed crashed out in the quarter-finals after losing to China's Bao Chunlai for the first time in nine meetings.

    Kim Hock said that it would be a big boost to his morale if he could get a chance to avenge his defeat to Bao at the Japan Open. However, Bao will have to overcome Olympic champion Taufik Hidayat of Indonesia - a player whom he had never beaten before - in the second round first. Both have received first round byes.

    Malaysia will also be represented by the Hashim brothers - Hafiz and Roslin - in the Japan meet.

    If Roslin does not run into any major problems, he is set to meet Chong Wei in the quarter-finals.

    In the Korean Open this year, Roslin had beaten Chong Wei enroute to the runner-up spot.

    His younger brother Hafis has a gigantic hurdle to clear.

    He is expected to meet top seed and world champion Lin Dan of China in the quarter-finals.

    At the quarter-finals in the world meet, Hafiz was outclassed by the Chinese.

    Meanwhile, Kuan Beng Hong had withdrawn from the Japan Open after suffering from tonsillitis.

    He will however, get back in action at the China Open next week.
