Badminton World Championships 2009

The annual Badminton World Championships 2009 started on Monday in Hyderabad, India. This world championships is promising to be very exciting with new drama and excitement unfolding as each day passes till the finals on Sunday in this week-long tournament as almost all of the top and best players will be taking part in this major event in badminton. And this time Malaysia has high hopes on their players to finally win a first world championship title as Malaysia has yet to produce a world champion since the tournament's inception in 1977. Malaysia's best bets for a world title are Lee Chong Wei, the top seed in the men's singles, Koo Kien Keat and Tan Boon Heong, the second seeds in the men's doubles and Wong Pei Tty and Chin Eei Hui, also the top seeds in the women's doubles.

Today is the 2nd round and well, I just hope the Malaysian players will do well and live up to expectations of winning a world title or even a silver or bronze medal.
