    I like Zhou Mi. She's so cute and I love her sweet smile on the court.

    for me:

    MS:

    Xia "big mouth" Xuanze - not for the size of his mouth, but for his style of play. brilliantly fast and explosive, outrageous style, but most of all, how he always seem to enjoy his game. anybody can play an extravangent shots, but only Xia can do it in style.

    WS:

    Xie Xingfang - for her ruthless style, and her coolness. brilliant skills and smartness when she is in her good day.

    Zhou Mi - i am slowly starting to enjoy watching Zhou Mi play. fast, powerful and clinical skills. always wears a smile in her face. despite her constantly changing and "interesting" hairstyle.

    MD:

    Jonas Rasmussen / Lars Paaske - Jonas for being such a great guy and plays brilliant badminton, powerful, fast and most important of all, smart. doubles is a game where we rarely see ppl left standing watching the shuttle but i have seen JR/LP pulling that off numerous times.

    WD:

    Yang Wei / Zhang Jiewen - the perfect WD players in my eyes. tall, powerful, fast and smart, they have it all. Zhang Jiewen for her raw power, vision and speed (looks helps too.. ;) ) and Yang Wei for her "i can pull a more brilliant and outrageous shot than you" attitude. they two always knows where it hurts the most, whether it is a flesh/floormat pentrating smash, or where it takes you the most effort to retrieve. and they do it with such speed and fluidity. i believe they will be in par with Ge Fei/Gu Jun for olympics gold if they choose to stay for another 4 yrs.

    XD:

    this is tough one, despite being my favorite event of the 5, i am still having problem finding my favorite pair. i like to rate my favorite players by their skill, style and attitude, and there are so few who fits the strict criteria. maybe i need to give it more thoughts.

    Okay Kwun as to current players for me:

    MS:

    Taufik "baby faced assassin" Hidayat
    Cool as a cucumber, except under extreme circumstances - questionable line calls, when he can be as fiery as a volcano.
    Unbelievable reflexes, but for the most - one of the best backhands in Men's Singles!

    Lee Hyun Il - greatest defensive player, the only player to rival him is Kenneth Jonassen (though I am not a fan of his)

    Xia Xuanze - over the top fantastic player, forehand down the line smash unstoppable

    WS:
    Wang Cheng - smooth, cool and economical, sharp shots, excellent timing.

    Mia Audina - great amazing player, round the head shots fantastical unorthodox and incredible gets take most off guard.

    MD:
    Ha Tae Kwon / Kim Dong Moon, explosive, full on, flat out power attack, apart for Indonesian, and Malaysian's only true flat driving attacking game - and the best at it!

    WD:
    Yang Wei / Zhang Jiewen - have to agree with Kwun.

    XD:
    Untill recently Kim Dong Moon / Ra Kyun Min, fast, controlled aggression, explosive short attack shots,
    but best of all smart play and great understanding between the two.

    Nathan Robertson / Gail Emms - great traditional western mixed.

    Awesome. It appears that USA winning the WC proved to spark interest in new audience.

    Anyway, I love Taufik's technique, but Lin Dan is still my favourite. He's just absolutely stunning. Go download some of his matches and you shall see Super Dan at work :D
