Even Boonsak has lately shown signs of difficulty in maintaining the same pace and intensity throughout a tournament. Perhaps age is catching up with him; same for Hu Yun, another veteran I admire.
if SN makes it to the final, maybe SY will be there waiting for her.. for exposure and experience purposes? a way to groom younger player, perhaps
Let's see what the ENG pair can do against world No.3 Natsir / Ahmad. Would like to see the ENG pair win at least 1 set
but Saina is able to beat ANY player at her peak, isn't she? So i don't see any problem about whom is on her path to the champ ladder.
I hope you are right, but my feeling tell me otherwise. There is animosity between them because of what had been said by both sides in the London Olympic after the bronze match. I wish they outgrow it. I just want a good match because SN is a really good player and she will play better when she is facing a top Chinese WS.
But before LXR or Sun Yu in the final, there's still either WYH or WSX waiting for Saina in the SF. For me,it'd be more interesting to see WSX or SY deal with Saina this time. Wait a minute, I think Lindaweni has as good a chance as Saina to advance to the SF. We shall see afterwards.
MJ/TJH has turned the tables on the INA pair in G2 after losing G1 and trailing the larger part of G2 to set up a decider.
what the hell were the english couple thinking about? looked as if they just wanted to get it over and go home

With CBA, there is a lot of calculations involve, they move as a group. They plan ahead before a tournament, they want this WS title. I believe that what they will do if SN is in the final and that is what I am hoping for. I don't want to see a all Chinese final.
