HOPE PEOPLE IN HO CHI MINH ENJOY MY BLOG!!!
I WAS IN HO CHI MINH LAST WEEK AND I FOUND INTERESTING SPORT THERE...SO I FOUND-OUT AN ARTICLE TO SHARE WITH!!..


 
Foot Shuttlecock or ‘Da Cau’ is a fast, energetic and fun sport.
About the sport of ‘Foot Shuttlecock’
Da Cau (Vietnamese) or Jianzi (Chinese)


Foot Shuttlecock or ‘Da Cau’ is a fast, energetic and fun sport and has been played throughout Asia at competitive level for years.
Now Foot Shuttlecock is available in Australia and is destined to be the sport of the future.
Easy to play with very few rules the object of the sport is to keep the ‘Foot Shuttlecock’ from hitting the ground (you can even use your hands if you want, although that is not in the official rules).
The sport originated in China around 5BC, and for thousands of years it has been a favourite sport and activity of children and adults all over Asia.
In 1936 Foot Shuttlecock (Jianzi) was introduced to Europe when a Chinese athlete from the province of Jiangxu performed a demonstration at the Olympic Games in Berlin. Germany and other European countries were so excited by the new sport that they began to learn and play Foot Shuttlecock.
The World Foot Shuttlecock Championship is an annual event that has been held since 1999 when the International Shuttlecock Federation (ISF) was founded. Previous to that various countries took turns to organise the championships.
The game of Foot Shuttlecock resembles Badminton except that it is played without rackets. By using various parts of the body (but not your hands) the shuttlecock must be kept from touching the ground. It is most commonly balanced and propelled upwards using parts of the leg, especially the feet.
Foot Shuttlecock has been included as a sport in the Southeastern Asiatic Games of 2003. China dn Vietnam are considered the leading teams in the sport.

BNP Paribas Open 2011

INDIAN WELLS, California (AP) — Roger Federer defeated Swiss compatriot and doubles partner Stanislas Wawrinka 6-3, 6-4 to advance to the BNP Paribas Open semfinals on Friday, setting up a showdown with Novak Djokovic for the world's No. 2 ranking.

Federer is currently second behind Rafael Nadal in the ATP rankings, and Djokovic is third. Djokovic beat Richard Gasquet 6-2, 6-4 on Friday to improve to 16-0 this year and put himself in position to surpass Federer in the rankings.

Nadal and Juan Martin del Potro will play in Saturday's other semifinal. Between them, Nadal, Federer and Djokovic have won six of the past seven finals at Indian Wells. Federer is a three-time champion, Nadal has won twice and Djokovic once.

Federer met little resistance against Wawrinka. He improved to 8-1 in his career against his compatriot, with whom he teamed later to play a doubles semifinal against Nadal and Marc Lopez.
Djokovic has also been on a roll during the two-week tournament, losing 12 games in eight sets.

"Confidence plays a very important role in the life of a tennis player. So if you can roll on that run and try to use that confidence you can have a lot of success and you can really play well," he said.
"I do feel really comfortable on the court and am trying to use that confidence because I know that it can easily change. It's a very mental game."

On the women's side, 15th-seed Marion Bartoli became the first Frenchwoman to reach the singles final at Indian Wells, defeating No. 23 seed Yanina Wickmayer 6-1, 6-3.
She'll play either top-ranked Caroline Wozniacki or 16th-seeded Maria Sharapova, who faced each other in an evening semifinal.

Djokovic trailed 2-0 in the first before winning five straight games to take the set. Gasquet challenged the call on the final point, but the replay showed his backhand landed just wide.
Djokovic fell behind 3-0 in the second set, then won six of the next seven games to close out the match against the 18th seed from France.
The Frenchman defeated top-10 players Jurgen Melzer and Andy Roddick to reach the quarterfinals.
Against Wickmayer, Bartoli was still feeling the effects of a stomach bug that bothered her earlier in the week.

"My level dropped after the first set because still not able to fully eat normally before the match, so I didn't have many fuel into my body to hang on," she said. "But I stayed mentally very focused and I stayed positive toward the end." - AP
