[/FONT] [FONT="] [/FONT] [FONT="]WS department looks less competitive but this week we’ll see new world #1, the battle between reigning All England champion Carolina Marin and home darling Saina Nehwal as they’re slated to meet at finale. Two potential names who may reject this scenario, Intanon and Okuhara in the absence of Chinese big three Li Xuerui, Wang Yihan and Wang Shixian.

Today's qualification round order of play (09.00am local time, 5 courts) : https://www.tournamentsoftware.com/...09AD14-E0E9-4A86-B7A5-545F63DAEC31&d=20150324
Unfortunate, LCW is not participating. Even though some players are missing, MS is going to be exciting to watch as usual. Saina need to be careful while playing. If she overstrains herself, it will be difficult for her during qualification period. Hope her shoulder pain wont aggrevate in this tournament.
That's pretty surprising result that Ivanov lost to unknown home player, next he will concentrate on MD only.
well, the qualification rounds looks really quick in the result sheet, lol. hope tomorrow would be more interesting.
Most of them were lopsided matches. ROUND OF 32 (08.30am local time, 5 courts) => https://www.tournamentsoftware.com/...09AD14-E0E9-4A86-B7A5-545F63DAEC31&d=20150325 MS top two seeds will take on tricky first round opponent, Jorgensen and Srikanth against Sasaki and Tanongsak respectively. Another interesting ties in this category should be Japan rising star Momota v German fighter Zwiebler and Chou Tien Chen will be challenged by China back up Xue Song. Some home pairs get tough test today, Gutta/Ponnappa will up against China Ou/Yu, their teammates Attri/Reddy and Chopra/Dewalkar will meet second seed Endo/Hayakawa and third seed Chai/Hong respectively also IND GP Gold runner-up Attri/Maneesha v defending champion Fischer/Pedersen.
Is it true that BWF BadmintinWorld.tv youtube live stream starts in 2 hours? Since Victor vs. Sai Praneeth starts at 2 PM local, I doubt it will start at 11 PM US time or 11:35 PM local.
ashwini and pranaav chopra are playing really well here against the experienced danes kamilla and kolding, a win here will do a lot for boosting their confidence.
The in-form Danish combo Kolding/Juhl survived from the brink of losing against home XD Chopra/Ponnappa, 21-13 / 20-22 / 21-19.

Another thrilling XD match, SIN Triyachart/Sari won over local pair Tarun/Reddy narrowly, 21-15 / 17-21 / 24-22, none of home XD pair passed R/32.
ditto both are goods pair hope they play more and understand each other. and qualify for olympics.. siki is too much improved ...she back every thing
yeah. .sikki reddy is playing the best i have ever seen her play, she's so improved. .a doubles specialist coach can really transform the way our pairs play. .its not that our players are not good, its just that they need some better training.
