Okay, here's tomorow line up : Taufik v JOJ (52-48) WYH v Liu Xin (55-45) Kido/Hendra v Boe/Mogensen (50-50) Maeda/Satoko v Naito/Matsuo (65-35) Laybourn/Juhl v Robertson/Wallwork (58-42) I predict : 2 titles for Ina, 1 each for Chn,Jpn,Den....
Yep, but may be one for INA only (hopefully Taufik is motivated, if he is he should take it for sure) and one for England (even that would scrap my fanbad completely I would like it) - anyway, nice matches coming up, just one they could flip the coin. but most important question: Does anybody know where we can get a live stream?
hmm hopefully ina get their 2nd (correct me if i am wrong,only remember sdk victory in singapore)ss here,from taufik(i will be very very happy for taufik,hopefully no one will say,taufik need to win this or that to proof this or that again,lol) boe/morgensen is on top form from the download i watch
TH played superbly yesterday..amazing backhand..but JOJ with home ground advantage plus his youth/stamina may just tip the balance
It seemsTH's stamina has improved tremendously.........he mananged to win in that rubber game and lasted the match in 1 hour 12 minutes......that's awesome.... TH to takes the title.....
I expect Taufik Hidayat to take the MS title this week in Denmark SS and hopefully in French SS (if Peter Gade is still absent) as well. I believe that he has yet to win any European title. Correct me if I am wrong. As for Markis Kido/Hendra Setiawan, they need the title to answer to their sponsor that they can still be counted for to win SS title this year (albeit with the absence of top MD pairs from Asia). So, one out of two in the European tour will be a nice addition to their trophy collection (they already won 1 Denmark SS and 2 French SS titles in 2008 and 2009 respectively).
Mathias Boe/Cartsen Mogensen haven't been given much of a fight besides the second game of their first round match against GWS/TKS. Their home crowd is backing them. I believe this MD match all depends on Markis Kido, unforced errors might become costly for the Indonesian pair. If Markis Kido plays up to par, then the title is the Indonesian's pair for the taking. As for MS, it is great since both players didn't get an SS title, but Jan O' Jorgensen still has a lot to prove while Taufik has proved himself in everthing. Taufik should win, but if he pulls his yoyo out, Jan O' Jorgensen stands a chance. It seems that only this two events are of great interest. Perhaps WS too, I hope WYH takes it though.
WYH needs to lift the trophy here to boost her confidence and to prove to herself that she's still big contender.
It is hoped that TH takes the 2010 French SS MS title. He must not be drawn by JOJ to play 3 games as that may sap his energy because at 29 years of age he would'nt be able to match JOJ's. Whatever the outcome, it is fantastic that at 29 years of age, TH is still playing top badminton and that should tell the youngsters a thing or two.
JOJ is 22 yrs old (DOB: 31st Dec 1987). Head to Head: JOJ vs Taufik: 1:2. The most recent won by JOJ.

hello buddies, we get close to the matches- if anybody discovers a possibility to watch a live stream of the matches, please post it here! hope some friends from Astro world will record the matches and put a link in the video share section, but watching live is much better.
Perhaps there will be a new Taufik. Anyway the match has started. Good luck to all the players/teams.
