    Will LXR be able to handle pressure now that she is the lone Chinese survivor in WS.

    Nozomi should win over her compatriot, Akane Yamaguchi next.

    So did LXR but there were many times they missed each other in the tournaments.

    If she could survive the onslaught of the Spanish banshee, the Japanese midget and/or the Indian Tower to defend her gold, I would rate Li Xuerui's achievement as better than Zhang Ning's.

    Well deserved for PVS. Let the excuses pour out though!

    I kind of knew Sindhu will win today.
    The way she beat Tai was fantastic.
    And she was equally fantastic today.

    the match between PVS and WYH was a sharp contrast to that match between WYH and SN 4 years ago where WYH won easily. Saina reached semis in Olympics in her second appearance, PVS did that in her first.

    Who will be an easier opponent for Sindhu in semis - Nozomi or Akane?

    So sad to see Wang Yi Han finishes her Olympics career like this, without medal on her neck. She looks so nice. It is hard to hate this girl.

    Consedering the head to head record, she would want to play Akane.

    So true.
    And she was so graceful even in her defeat.

    Sindhu has 1-3 against Nozomi
    and
    2-1 against Akane.
