Surprise, Surprise…Chong Wei Lee (Malaysia) and Lin Dan (China) will be meeting once again in the Swiss Open Finals. I think it is reasonable to say that these two players ARE the world’s best. It was fun to see that the young Dane Jan O Jorgensen (Denmark) was able to push the Malaysian [...]

Weekend Training Foiled
As I am coming back from the Swiss Open 2009 I catch an absolutely wicked cold. This means that my training for the whole weekend is not possible. First my flight back from Basel,Switzerland, was delayed 4 hours and arrived back in my apartement in Copenhagen at 2.30am. For sure my friday [...]
Quarter Finals Results of Swiss Open 2009
The quarter finals are over and now there are only 4 left in the tournament. The bottom half of the draw was relatively uneventful with Lin Dan (China) and Chen Jin (China) cruising into the semi finals and will play each like last week at the All England 2009. Hopefully this time Chen [...]
Day 3 Swiss Open 2009
Unfortunatly today I was not able to see any of the men’s singles since my flight in the evening conflicted with every match I wanted to see. On top of that I had a 4 hour delay which means I COULD have seen many of the matches! No luck.

Enjoy [...]
Lin Dan 2009 All England Champion
Once again Lin Dan (China) proves his dominances in the All England finals against Chong Wei Lee (Malaysia). The Chinese Super Star won in two straight sets 21-19 21-12. I truly believe that at this moment he is just too difficult to beat. We will see if he can keep the same level [...]
