China Open Super Series - the rise of Choong Hann!!

Well done, Choong Hann!

It certainly proves that you have been working hard and smart to make into the finals of the China Masters Open Super Series. No matter how difficult the injury you had last year, I believe it's the determination which brings you to where you are now. Other younger players are STILL not consistent, they are STILL not ready to take over you. It has been almost a decade since you made yourself a name in the 1998 Commonwealth Games, and you can STILL shoulder the responsibility of carrying Malaysia's name. I'd rather have you play for the country's team event than having Hafiz Hashim, Roslin Hashim, or even Kuan Beng Hong destroying our dreams.

You rose. You outclassed Chen Hong, you defeated Sony Dwi Kuncoro, you eliminated Kenneth Jonassen. These three are definitely no easy players for you. But you did it. It's the victory over well-named players which Malaysians always want to listen to.

Well done, Chong Wei. I still have not forgotten about you.

You defeated Taufik Hidayat. We're all still proud of you for your achievement. In the Sudirman cup, you totally destroyed China's clean sweep of 5-0. Having you to beat Lin Dan was a joy to your fans.

This blog entry is specially for both Choong Hann and Chong Wei because they defeated big names. I'm still going to be harsh on Tan Bin Shen/Ong Soon Hock despite reaching the semifinals due to their opponents they faced. It's not that their opponents were looked down by me, but to get praised and earn headlines from the newspapers, they have got to really create upsets! I really hope they do.

Buzzing Bambee's player of the week : WONG CHOONG HANN!!
