Well, not really, Taufik won 04 and China hasn´t won a men´s double gold in like 20 years or something.
For worlds? China won 08 Bejing Olympics in Mens double 2-1
Huh, didn´t Indonesia win the double in 08?! Am i really remembering it wrong?!
Lol its not like I'm giving him flak, its just that every single time he is faced with pressure aka Lin Dan he seems to lose more often than not. Has not prevented me from watching every single finals he has played in though.
I feel like many Malaysians heap on the pressure on chong wei as there seems to be little progress in training a successor for him.

Its so hard to watch Badminton on TV here(mainly because noone in the netherlands can play it except for Audina at some point.) exciting to see though, its so fast paced.

I found a stream that will go active when the event starts. It's listed in OP
Guys guys ! I just don't get it why you say you only get to watch badminton once every 4 year.
There is a great BWF badminton channel on YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/user/bwf) where you can see most SuperSeries live events as well as the World Championships.
Oh and by the way I'll be in London to see some badminton action during the olympics, so I'll try to upload a few pics :D

Better grab your shuttle racks then!
What is a shuttle rack? Edit: wait... short for racket/raquet right lol? man... i started thinking rack was some sort of american euphemism for cock lol.
You know how you buy birdies in those tubes? we call it shuttle racks over here at my club and you can use it as those clappers that the asians always have at badminton events. They are really loud if you hit together correctly
You have a club? I wish I could find a badminton club around me but I'm pretty sure there is nothing.
