  • DONG JIONG WITHDRAWS from MALAYSIAN OPEN (Bernama 04
    04 JUL 1997 Badminton-Open DONG JIONG WITHDRAWS FROM MALAYSIAN OPEN By: Hamdan Saaid KUALA LUMPUR, July 4 (Bernama) -- Olympic silver medalist and world number one Dong Jiong of China has withdrawn from the US$180,000 (RM450,000) Malaysian Open badminton championships in Kota Kinabalu from July 9 to 13. The Chinese Badminton Association has informed the organisers that Dong, who had also pulled out from the World Championships in Glasgow due to high fever, was unable to compete due to injury. It was another set back for the championships which had earlier seen the withdrawal of reigning world champion Peter Rasmussen of Denmark while Malaysia's top doubles champ Yap Kim Hock pulled out due to shoulder injury, forcing his partner Cheah Soon Kit to find a new partner. In Dong's absence, former world champion Joko Suprianto of Indonesia has been seeded first in the six-star tournament while defending champion Ong Ewe Hock has been drawn to meet Joko in the final. According to the seedings released by the International Badminton Federation (IBF), Ewe Hock is in the same half with third seed Peter-Gade Christensen of Denmark. Christensen, who became the first European since Morten Frost Hansen to win a title in Asia when he won the Taiwan Open this year, is expected to clash with the Malaysian in the semifinal. Three-time champion Rashid Sidek has been seeded fourth and is likely to come up with Joko in the last four. Rashid beat him in the quarterfinals in the Olympi c Games in Atlanta.

  • JOKO and EWE HOCK ADVANCE to THIRD ROUND (Bernama 29/07
    09 JUL 1997 Badminton-Malaysian Open JOKO AND EWE HOCK ADVANCE TO THIRD ROUND KOTA KINABALU, July 9 (Bernama) -- Top seed Joko Suprianto and defending champion Ong Ewe Hock strolled into the third round of the US$180,000 (RM450,000) Malaysian Open badminton championship here tonight, with both notching up easy victories in the second round. Joko, a former world champion, with superior court control showed Malaysia's Malik Zainal the exit, winning 15-3, 15-3 in less than 25 minutes. Ewe Hock, second seeded in this year's championship, lived up to the top billing, sending his compatriot Mahathir Mustafa packing with an emphatic 15-5,15-9 victory. Three-time champion Rashid Sidek, who had been seeded fourth in this year's tournament, survived a second round scare before winning in three games in more than an hour against determined South Korean Kim Hyung Joon to join the elite in the third round tomorrow. The Korean's hopeful, who displayed aggressive play with superb jumping smash and tricky drop shots, took the first set 15-1 in 10 minutes. Rashid, Olympic bronze medallist, made amends in the second game, attacking with sharp chops and excellent net play to win the nerve-wracking set 15-9. It was a neck to neck affairs in the decider with both players were in fine form. They were tied at 8-8 and then 10-10 before Rashid raced into 12-10 lead. Hyung Joon fought back but wilted towards the end of the game to give way for Rashid to wrap up the game.
