No. 1 Seeds Knocked Out!!

Tammy Sun, arguably the best female player in the Canadian badminton circuit, was unable to pull through to the finals in both her mixed doubles and her doubles matches. Her mixed partner and brother, Conrad Sun, said “As dissappointing as this is, I can’t put any blame on Tammy. She was a leader out there, and totally pulled through when the team needed it. I’ve never felt more comfortable on court with anybody and I’m sure her regular mixed partner can attest to that. I just couldn’t pull it together. I’ve been trying to figure out the game of mixed doubles for a long time now, and I realized tonight that I still have a lot to learn.” Tammy also lost her doubles semi-finals. Unfortunately, her partner Val St. Jacque’s ailing back problems haunted her during the match and prevented a lot of her mobility. Conrad Sun and Justin Mullaly dominated their doubles semi-final defeating their opponents 15-4 & 15-0. They will not be facing their Albertan friends as Brody Hilland and Mark Docksteader lost to BC’s Toby Lau and Alvin Lau.
