There goes Rajiv, disappointingly: 6:35 PM MS Mark CALJOUW [12] [NED] - [ENG] Rajiv OUSEPH [2] 21-16 11-21 21-14
So Rajiv is out of the running. My WS and MD just about survived. 2:05 PM WS Nitchaon JINDAPOL [2] [THA] - [CAN] Michelle LI 18-21 23-21 21-7 2:30 PM MD Kim ASTRUP [2] [DEN] Anders Skaarup RASMUSSEN [DEN] - [GER] Jones Ralfy JANSEN [GER] Josche ZURWONNE 19-21 21-15 21-17 But my WD did well: :20 PM WD Gabriela STOEVA [1] [BUL] Stefani STOEVA [BUL] - [GER] Linda EFLER [GER] Eva JANSSENS 21-14 21-8 And finally, my pick for XD also did not make it: 8:05 PM XD Marcus ELLIS [ENG] Lauren SMITH [ENG] - [TPE] WANG Chi-Lin [2] [TPE] LEE Chia Hsin 22-20 13-21 21-19 A tough competition indeed!
Interesting match. What if LZJ beats him? 1:25 PM MS Brice LEVERDEZ [3] [FRA] - [MAS] LEE Zii Jia [14]
i gonna pick Khosit Nichaon Fajar Rian Jongkolphan Rawinda Bodin Savitree hmm maybe too many thailands but one can dream
He has these semifinal block where he get a lot of chance to win but falter in the end. Versus KW/CTC is the example.
maybe he will make it this time, already set him target to reach final, if win the title will be a bonus to him...
Well, I hope he can start more faster than LCW though. Anyway, good luck to him, he need it against Brice Leverdez.
I get a feeling he will be defeated by Brice, just because he is not experienced enough. I think getting to QF/SF consistently is already a good result for him.
many questionable calls both by the line judges and umpire it seem on the MarvinSeidel Linda vs He Du Yue match
GER pair has a good attacking game, they might have a chance to advance to SF if they can continue to pressure the young CHN pair.
