Big Shock!!! South Korea actually ended China’s 12-year stranglehold on the Uber Cup with a 3-1 victory on Saturday. No one expected this as China actually sent out a strong squad for Uber Cup. Kudos to the South Korean players. This is also their first win in the Uber Cup history.

No surprise. China won their fourth Thomas Cup in a row, after Chen Jin took the third point from Indonesia’s Simon Santoso. After playing for 2 and half hours, China won Indonesia with 3-0.  Lin Dan won the first match for China. He played very well in the game and beat Taufik in 45 minutes without facing any tough challenge. Then, China’s first men double, Cai Yun/Fu Haifeng won over Markis Kido/Hendra Setiawan in three matches. Chen Jin, China’s second men single wrapped up the game and snatched the vital point. Congratulations to China!!! :cheerful:
