SCG Thailand Open 2007 Set to Begin

The Thailand Open 2007 will begin starting next week with 3 of China’s top men’s players ready to dominate. Last year’s winner Chen Yu is back again at the tournament where he upset then world number 1 Lee Chong Wei en route to taking the title. He will have to watch out for Chen Jin and Chen Hong. So it looks like a battle of the Chen’s this year. Also not to be forgotten is hometown favourite, and fourth seed Boonsak Ponsana who recently won the Singapore Open Super Series event(where he beat Chen Yu actually). As usual we’re not too concerned (or interested) in the other events, especially since this isn’t a worlds or Super Series event. The men’s doubles is missing most of the top pairs, with Choong Tan Fook and Lee Wan Wah as the top ranked pair at this tournament. Here is a clip from the Singapore Open final where Boonsak Ponsana played Chen Yu. Enjoy!
