    Minatsu is 19 already, I think.

    Yes, she is probably your year? Too busy studying at the moment [​IMG]. I'm sure she will improve a lot once she gets more exposure [​IMG].

    You will. Soon. She is currently in the B team for Japan. She lost narrowly to Sung Ji Hyun 21-19 in the rubber last year, and beat Gu Juan 21-14 21-12 just two weeks ago. And she is only 15 [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG].

    Birgit Michels used to be known as Birgit Overzier before she got married last year (I think). I have observed that Butet certainly face problems whenever she meet tall opponents like the Europeans.

    I miss the days when INA has 2 top XD pairs in the World Ranking.

    Well giant-killer Yamada who scalped TH the day before surprised again.

    So too was our very own diminutive Gu Juan, whom I believe is the first Singaporean woman to have gained a place in the QF of AE in recent years.

    Good luck to the two of them.
