Some intereresting R/32 matches today to follow : - Momota v Jorgensen (ongoing) - Li XR v Yamaguchi - Marin v Mitani - Liu X v Intanon - Srikanth v Zwiebler - Sasaki v Axelsen - Chong WF v Son WH The organizer is using 5 courts, nice arrangement to avoid late night matches as often happen in SS tourneys.
Jorgensen runaway and win the 3rd game against home shuttler, pattern that seems to be followed by Sung Ji Hyun in the other court
Mitani Minatsu went down tamely to Carolina Marin in two sets, 11-21 and 16-21. P/s: People who complain about WSX shouting should really watch this Spanish rose play.
I cannot watch any livestream now . Probably due to the high demand or slow connection. I'm watching Visual Live Score instead. Akane won the first game.
LXR's body langauage is no good, and again her sliced dropshot finds the net...I've a feeling she's going to lose in two sets.
LXR seems to be somewhat more vulnerable in the opening match of any tournament, previously stretched by Mitani, Nichaon, Busanan - and now Akane. I think Akane won't let her escape. LXR has to work on her focus from the get-go...quite disappointed with her.
I think she has been like that for quite a long time now. She lost in the first round of the 2013 AE.
