We'll be getting daily reports from Luke Riches, and last year they did live TEXT commentary on the official website, but this is normally the one event a year that ISN'T shown live unfortunately... If I hear different, obviously I'll whack it on the front page.
Hopefully the lads will post something here too?

So, if these are the local start times, and Manila is GMT +8, does that mean start times over here are 4am, 7am, and 10am? Or have I got it completely wrong? Tuesday September 4 Round 1 – race to 8 12.00 noon (local time) Germany v Serbia Thailand v Malaysia 3.00 pm (local time) Canada v Sweden USA v India 6.00 pm (local time) Austria v Kuwait Philippines B v Hong Kong [ This message was edited by: BigDave on 2012-09-03 21:51 ]
