                    [Summary] => They’re not laughing at the Los Angeles Clippers in the National Basketball Association (NBA) anymore.  


This season, the Clippers are far from laughable. Coach Mike Dunleavy’s charges are outplaying their crosstown rivals, the Lakers, and finally, oddsmakers are taking them a little seriously.

This was bared by Philippine Badminton Association vice-president Edgar Aglipay during Monday’s sendoff of the 16-man RP delegation competing in the 2005 Chinese-Taipei Satellite Badminton Championships at the Yulin Indoor Stadium.

                    [Summary] => Good news and bad news for RP badminton.


Kennevic and Kennie Asuncion have improved from No. 24 to No. 22 in the International Badminton Federation mixed doubles rankings, thanks to their strong showing in the recent IBF World Championships in Arrowhead Pond in Anaheim, California where they reached the Last 16 phase.


The bad news is there are five more from the Southeast Asian region that are better-ranked than the brother-sister tandem, thus making it difficult for the Filipinos to vie for medal honors in the 23rd SEA Games here this November.

Taufik Olympic & World Champ


The US team of Howard Bach and Tony Gunawan (ranked # 13) provided the International Badminton Federation (IBF) World Championships held recently for the first time in the U.S.A. with the most unpredictable win of the modern era when they beat legends Sigit Budiarto and Candra Wijaya (ranked # 2). Taufik Hidayat of Indonesia (ranked # 6) added the World Championship title to his list of achievements.

                    [Summary] => Kennevic and Kennie Asuncion of the Philippines saw their amazing run come to an end as they bowed to third-seeded Chen Qiqiu and Zhao Tingting of China, 15-7, 15-5, in the third round of the mixed doubles competition of the 2005 IBF World Badminton Championships yesterday at the Arrowhead Pond in Anaheim, California.


The Filipinos gave their Chinese foes a respectable fight, but Chen and Zhao were simply too good as they never trailed and finished the match in only 25 minutes.

                    [Summary] => ANAHEIM, California -- Umusad ang magkapatid na sina Kennievic at Kennie Asuncion ng Philippines sa third round matapos na igupo ang tandem nina Jurgen Wou-ters at Paulien Van Doorema-len ng Netherlands, 15-13, 15-9 sa mixed doubles ng 2005 IBF World Badminton Cham-pionships kahapon sa Arrowhead Pond dito.


Hindi naging hadlang sa 28th ranked Filipinos ang kanilang mabagal na pani-mula nang maiwanan sila ng Dutch na kalaban, 0-6 sa first set ngunit nagawang maka-bangon ng Asuncion siblings at agawin ang trangko sa 12-11.
