    Re: Favourite Player(s)

    This has nothing to do with fav players but I juz wanna say that Tony Gunawan's decision to quit is depressing. The term in US starts in Fall (August or September) so I hope he'll at least play his last Thomas Cup for INA next year, although it doesn't seem very viable from the looks of it.

    What a depressing way to end two depressing days. And I was just thinking tt things may be looking up a bit. I'm so sad.

    Very powerful, but somehow need to control his temper in the game.

    For me, Yang yang and Gong Zhichao are the best.

    MS - Peter gader for his style and intensity, Hendrawan adn Obviously Gopi as i have had the oppurtunity to see him in action straight! So my view abt gopi would be very biased but still...

    MD Tony Gunawan

    LS Susi and Gong..

    Gong is just the prefect example for someone who wants to learn how to move in court! she does it like iceskating... Susi and gong are pretty small but yet...

    "Best things come in small packages" is so true in Ladies Singles...

    I suppose I'm of Bbn's era as I have seen all the players he's mentioned and I agree with all his choices, especially the great Rudy Hartono , Tjun Tjun and Li Ling Wei. However, I would like to add Peter Gade for MS and Park Joo Bong for MD and XD to the list. Ge Fei should make it for LD.

    FAVOURITE doesn't necessarily mean BEST

    Not only results count I think, but also style, character, charisma etc. A lot of people seem to have confused "favourite players" for "best players" which I think isn't the same thing at all.


    MS: Peter Rasmussen (for the beautiful footwork, the amazing jump smashes, and for his calm attitude on court)

    LS: Camilla (for being the John McEnroe of badminton), Mia Audina (for beating both Mother Nature and gravity)

    MD: Jens Eriksen (for being such a bad-ass), Sigit Budiarto (for never playing safe), Ha Tae Kwon (for being such an entertainer)

    LD: Helene Kirkegaard (for showing that the LD can be every bit as fast and hard as MD)

    MX: Michael Søgaard (for aiming for a WC title at 34)
