The top Chinese singles players except for LD and the top Chinese doubles pair all lost to unseeded(U) opponents. Thankfully 2 of the Chinese seeded singles players lost to their own unseeded players and there are still 3 Chinese singles players for the quarter final.
TH is pitted to play LD in the quarter final and that should a good match to watch unless someone withdraws at the last minute.
Malaysia will have a MD semi-final representation as the 2 Malaysian doubles pairs will slot it out in the quarter final.
