2012 Thomas and Uber Cup Preliminaries

There are a lot of top tournaments this year.....

Olympic Games....

Euro 2012.....

And don't forget, there are Thomas Cup and Uber Cup too.



2012 Thomas and Uber Cup preliminaries round has started. As a nation famous with badminton, Malaysia are playing too.

Today, Malaysia Thomas Cup team defeated Hong Kong by 3-2.

Lee Chong Wei defeated Wong Wing Ki 21-18, 22-20

Hafiz Hashim lost to Hu Yun 20-22, 18-21
Lim Khim Wah/ Goh V Shem defeated Wong Wai Hong/ Lee Chun Hei 21-14, 21-16
Darren Liew lost to Chan Yan Kit 21-17, 16-21, 19-21

With this wining, Malaysia successfully stepped into the next round in Thomas Cup.

On the other hand, Malaysia Uber Cup Team defeated India with 3-2.

Tee Jing Yi lost to Saina Lehwal 17-21, 16-21
Chin Eei Hui/ Wong Pei Tty defeated Jwala Gutta/ Ashwini Ponnappa 21-12, 21-16

Goh Liu Ying/ Vivian Hoo defeated Prajakta Sawant/ Pradnya Gadre 21-17, 21-17
Yang Li Lian defeated Sayali Gokhale 11-21, 21-15, 22-20

Applause has to be given to Yang Li Lian. After lost the first set with 11-21, she managed to fight back at the second set. In the third set, she was once losing with 2-11. I thought the chance to win the game is very tiny. But, she created the wonderful story! She defeated the opponent at the end with 22-20!

After getting this win, Malaysia has obtain the 'half ticket' to Uber Cup next stage. Unless India defeat China tomorrow, or else, Malaysia will be stepping into the Uber Cup for next round.

All the best to Malaysia Thomas and Uber Cup in the final round!
