Sporting Saturdays!

Ahh, badminton. A popular sporting even among the Asian countries. I wonder maybe it's becouse the most important trophy, the Thomas Cup always seems to circulate amongst the three elite Asian countries: China, Indonesia and Malaysia. Of course, there are pretenders to the throne. Countries like Thailand, India, Japan and Korea all tried to lay claim to the most pretigious trophy in the badminton world, in an effort to be the best. But alas, they are mere pretenders.
However, not all claimants to the throne are Asians. Two particularly good European stocks measure highly. Denmark and England. The Danish team figure particularly high in the world ranking, but again, they are the only real contenders for the crown. England lagged behind even though it host one of the most prestigious round in the circuit, the All-England. Players who lay claim to be All-England's finest is by default a very real world champion, unless of course they happen to be injured from doing the split. :D
