wahhh, Saina won her 1st SS title beating a China player, 2 in fact, one in Semi & one in Finals. Yup, she's part of the "have beaten China WS to win" club now.
I can only imagine what it would be like for Saina come the World Championships later in August in India...Let's see if Saina can build upon this victory and challenge the rest of the WS competition, esp. the Chinese WS squad..
Although a good player this WL, but lack of experience cost her the match. 1st time playing against such crowd probably?
Don't forget to congrat to Atik Jauhari as well, as a coach of Saina Nehwal. The presenters joked that Pasar Baru (Jakarta market which is many Indian) close to celebrate it.
What's up with the relayed postings.. ..tell cooler to log in and post in BC...how come he's in hiding?? i hope it's not because of LinDan's loss.. Hau-ge was on tv??..
I'm sure home advantage gives you that little bit extra. Look at TH is this tournament. He's been nowhere near until the IO
Xie Xingfang may have to thank Sainal as team China most probbaly will include her in the World Champinships final list as Xie is the only one with vast experience among all.
i cannot even remember when was the last time China lost both WS/WD finals. hopefully it won't be tonight.
