Badminton Tournament - Macao Open

Spent force?
Inconsistent?
Should be split up?

You've gotta be kidding. These were the comments Koo Kien Keat and Tan Boon Heong were receiving just last week. But the manner in which this pair defeated, I'm sorry, demolished their opponents, the current world number 1 and reigning World Champions Markis Kido and Hendra Setiawan obviously begs to differ. Boon Heong and Kien Keat never looks threatened or pushed at all. Who's the inconsistent spent force now?

The reigning World Champions and world number 1 could do nothing. They were toyed around, and Kien Keat and Boon Heong dictated the pace all throughout the game. This certainly does augur well for tomorrow's final, possibly against former world champions Cai Yun and Fu Haifeng. Phase 2 of Malaysian badminton rejuvenation has just been completed. If Lee Wan Wah and Choong Tan Fook are able to defeat Cai Yun and Fu Haifeng... I would confidently declare Malaysia as the new badminton men's doubles powerhouse.

Inconsistent spent force? Should be split up? Now who's the laughing one?
