China's XD pairs have a bad day today after Xie Zhongbo/Zhang Yawen and He Hanbin/Yu Yang lost to Thomas Laybourn/Kamilla Rytter-Juhl and Hendri Kurniawan Saputra/Li Yujia respectively. The winners will square off against each other for the right to play possibly Zheng Bo/Gao Ling in the SF. Zheng/Gao themselves have to beat the English pair of Anthony Clark/Donna Kellogg.
It's not easy to maintain the winnng streak after the WC. INA XD just showed why they are world class players.
