i have to say. Taufik can still be a very strong force and a good contender for Beijing. who knows if he's really hiding his play. he might hide it very well indeed, but he can still lose even if he plays 100%, like when he lost to Chen Hong in WC last year. there's things even Taufik can't account for, and it could happen in Beijing
I just realised that other than the only walkover, china has yet losing a game? Credits to them in any case...
y IT IS NO MATCH INVOLVING MALAYSIAN IN THE ASTRO SUPERSPORT TODAY??? playafrommalaya, yes,its live on TV...
why would he want to lose a world champs? all the money and the glory-winning a huge title -that which he spends his life training for? he just wasnt up to it. I think saying it was some clever tactic or something is just fangirlism taken to extreme. Taufik can suck too you know.
Denmark are on their way down, once a strong powerhouse who in 2000 and 2004 were inches away from clinching the thomas cup seems only reliable on their mens single players. Only other medal candidates are Eriksen/lundgaard and Laybourn/Juhl but their draw and recent results doesnt look bright. Why on earth Jonas/Lars can perform as bad as they have done the last 2 years they only know themselves but i guess its a lack of motivation.
