No upsets created by MAS. GTC/TBS losing very badly to BoSan in rubber but not expected to win anyone. Wow, what a season for BoSan, 3 titles!
INA timnas won in 1st match over Phil 1-0. hope Bosan will win their match soon, too.. so i can focus on AFF...
When will the degradation list be published? From where do you know if PBSI will split Shendy/Nitya and Anneke/Annisa? Link please
i think its from Hauge he is the best informer for INA fans ! ---- usually, we will know the degradation list on feb/march each year.. national selection will be in the late of january/early of february
Oh, I see. I am confused as you said "hauge", while it refers to Huangkwokhau. I just was not familiar
So final result China grabbed 3 titles and Indonesia ruled men's division. Congrats for all winners! I think only India as the host which play national anthem song during victory ceremony in GP and GP Gold tournament. And most likely next year India Super Series...
It's now time for Bona Septano/Mohd Ahsan to step up a gear and try to win a SS title, the same goes for Dionysius Hayom Rumbaka, who also won his first title since joining Pelatnas. It has been a good turnaround for Bona/Ahsan with solid performances since mid of this year. They are now Pelatnas's no 1 MD pair and they should try to compete for a slot at the London Olympics 2012. This year, they lost 6 times: to Ko/Yoo at the HKG SS QF (2 tight sets) to Koo/Tan at the Japan SS SF to Guo/Xu at the China SS R16 (3 sets) to Robertson/Clark at the INA SS QF (2 sets) to Gan/Tan at the SIN SS R16 (2 sets) to Fu/Cai at the AE SS R32 (3 sets) I think the focus next year will be to try and beat the 2nd-3rd MD pair of each country like Ko/Yoo, Guo/Xu, Chai/Zhang, etc.
