    PV Sindhu demolishes Tai Tzu Ying! Outstanding! :)
    Wang Yihan awaits her.

    My perception is. And my friends in Rio told me it was slow and it get even slower after a few shots. So fast players like to get new shuttle more than usual frequency.

    Viktor is waiting for Rajiv Ouseph or Tommy Sugiarto. My guess he might prefer Ouseph

    TTY's deceptive strokes which are so successful against Saina were not working against PV Sindhu. I think PVS is better than Saina in that way. More speed, more varied strokes. She needs consistency. .

    Bae Yeon Ju is such a slow mover for a top player, or is that just me?

    on the other hand sindhu must be feeling good about her chances against wang yihan having beaten her the last time they met in straight games, this is a good draw for her, if she can hold her nerves anything can happen.

    Why is the BBC playing WS instead of Ouseph vs Sugiarto

    I must say Sugiarto's smash defense is pretty stellar.Ouseph keeps trying with those angles but they just keep coming back!
