A KOR vs. JPN duel next up on Court 2. The pairs have never faced each other, but the Japanese (Eto Rie/Yu Wakita) are 89 spots above the Koreans (Jang Ye Na/Kim Min Seo) in the World Rankings.

In the other KOR vs. JPN duel, on Court 1, the Koreans (Ko Sung Hyun/Yoo Yeon Seong) are leading 11-7 in the rubber. They have beaten the Japanese pair (Naoki Kawamae/Shoji Sato) before, at the 2011 AE, and are 14 spots above them in the Rankings.

European XD duel coming up on Court 3.

The no. 8 ranked and 4th seeds Joachim Fischer Nielsen and Christinna Pedersen of Denmark face the no. 27 ranked Robert Blair (SCO)/Gabby White (ENG). The pairs have never met in a tournament before.

Carolina is a left-handed talented player. If she keep playing in very good standard, I think she will become one of top European WS in the future.
Her movement is good, also several techniques she has, even some own fault error she really made.
One thing that I do not like from her is how she scream after getting points. It is horrible

But, Linda is mentally better than her, at least right now.
Congrats to Lindaweni progress to QF

How did linda play tonight?

How did linda play tonight?

Linda played rather calm, I think. Sometimes quite slow.
Overall quite good. She got some points from Carolina's own fault error.

 

[Gicutzu]

Ko Sung Hyun and Yoo Yeon Seong repeat the result from the AE, defeating Kawamae/Sato in three, 19-21, 21-14, 21-19.
