  • OFFICIAL- BWF dismisses India's plea of
    Japan-Taipei match. Hence the results
    stand, India's Ashwini/Jwala are OUT.

    <br><div><br></div><div>Hopefully something is done after the Olympics. Indian sports needs a huge reform.</div>
  • Agreed. In tennis front IT IS all All India Tennis Association (AITA) fault. The best pair would had been Paes and Bhuapti. The whole world knows that and even Roger Federer was surprised not to see Paes-Bhupati together.<br>1. Bhupati / Bopanna didnt wanted to pair with Paes. AITA bowed to their demand even though Paes should choose his partner based on his top ranking.<br>2. Paes didnt wanted to pair with lower ranked Vishnu since there wont be any medal chance. Paes decided to quit olympic.<br>3. To keep Paes happy, AITA paired him with Sania in mixed doubles, even though BHupati-Sania recently won the French Open mixed double title.<br>4. Sania wasnt happy. AITA made her mother manager of team olympic.<br>5. All happy except the million Indian fans. But AITA dont care about that.<br><br>whole effing saas-bahu drama !!!<br><br>
  • Who would not want to work with Sania... she is hot. Probably why Paes said yes to pairing with her. Obvious.<div><br></div><div>But I do agree. This whole situation is stupid. I would hope the athletes are holding out for a reform after this. We should be better than this. Look at counties within Asia like China, North Korea etc. HTF have they been able to do so well. I can only guess for North Korea (I heard that some players are forced to play at a young age) but they are doing well. </div><div><br></div><div>Also Aruncito, get ready for those Indian Athletes in the IMG Academy to make it to the Olympics. If they do well than you can bet the American media will say that the US made them because they got there training here. They already did that and also the Brits did that with the 16-year old Lithuanian girl who won a gold medal and who only lived in the UK for 2 years.</div>
