Early exit for Christensen


FORMER world number one Peter-Gade Christensen, who is trying to make a comeback after a knee operation, made a quick exit from the World Championships for the first time in his career, losing in the first round. 

The 26-year-old Dane was close to tears after losing 15-11, 15-6 to Sony Dwi Kuncoro, the sixth-seeded Asian champion from Indonesia, who would not have been competing but for the 10-week postponement caused by the SARS virus.
