With Xie Xingfang withdrawal possibility, CHN will only depend on two WS to fight in KOR SS, Zhang Ning and Lu Lan. Good prospect for others to shine here...
You guys better believe it. Spoken to Hauge a few hours ago while he was awaiting his HK flight, his voice sounded terrible. Hauge must really be so ill, just shows how extreme and dedicated is his support of his countrymen and love for the game. Very fortunate that Kido/Setiawan did not fail our friend yesterday. Hauge, take care, remember what I said. No spicy food, cheerleading duties or running to more badminton tournaments until you get better .........
Off topic-Hau-ge to take lots of rest.. ..in other words, Hau-ge needs to spend more time in BC, to post more rather than travel all over the world, enjoying the many tourneys and the delicious foods during the get-together...*ahem*.. *Btw, our Hau-ge has been under the weather prior to his trip to the Orient, last weekend. Get well soon, Hau-ge!!
yup taufik is one talented player..superb net play and beautiful jumping smash.. i still remember when he beat Lin Dan (dont remember with SS).. Li Yongbo held his thumbs up to taufik...

Must be problem with her ankle injury last Sunday. Next, looks like she will concentrate to next month Uber Cup qualifying round.
Zheng Bo/Gao Ling are now gone from the draw. Can the INA XD pair take this opportunity again? Markis Kido/Hendra Setiawan will now face a familiar face in R32, the same opponent they beat in rubber-sets last week, Robert Adcock/Robin Middleton.
So, for all the Msian fans, KKK/TBH withdrawal no big deal. Many others also withdrew. A bit weird for Zheng Bo/Gao Ling to withdraw from both SS. Although they are WR no 1, they still need to maintain their position.
the ina XD will up against Mas OPEN SS 08 RUNNER UP LYD/LHJ who is also the home favourite.. i doubt it.
