It's been a crazy five days at Birmingham covering the Yonex All England Open 2005 Badminton Championships. Absolutely fantastic experience. Sitting on centre court photographing the world's top Badminton players battle it out. It's a shame our Malaysian players didn't make it to the Finals but there's always next year! Tomorrow's the big day with Chen Hong against his compatriot, Lin Dan in the Men's Singles which should have plenty of jumping smashes and net play.
