The NEW All England Doubles Champion


Yesh!!!! Macam ni la!!Apologies for being overzealous. That was my reaction when I was watching the semi finals of the All England match when our Msian pair beat the guts out of the Danish pair, Jens Eriksen-Martin Lundgaard Hansen.


Dominic supposed to buy KFC for our congregation at my home for the Finals. Sad to say he was an hour late and our KFC has been reduced to McDonalds. the very brand that made famous the movie Super Size Me. Not to say my girlfriend is complaining hunger is getting the best of her and Chien Jin and his wife Esther are also hungry. You owe us big time man, Dominic. Again!!


Back to the game, we enjoyed it. Boon Heong was superb in his net kills and so were his accurate smashes. Kien Keat equally was powerful as well with his baseline smashes and rock solid defence. Both of them complimented each other so well.Never have I seen Msia producing a pair like this. Forget bout Razif-Jalani, forget bout Soon Kit-Kim Hock/Beng Kiang or any other pairs that came after that. The era is now for Kien Kiat-Boon Heong, Both still under 22yrs of age, they have erased the record held by the Sidek brothers that last won the title in 1982.


Oh thats Rexy, the coach.....running to the courts. He's a happy camper. Remember folks, inaugural Super Series this year is still under way. And I'll definately be down there in Spore stadium to cheer them on for this year's Spore Open. Hopefully they are coming. Yesh!!
