The qualifier Jonatan Christie took first game 21-18 against Chou Tien Chen despite trailed behind 3-11 at opening game.
Yui Hashimoto is still a junior right? Unbelievable that she can beat CM. Many upsets today. Except Polli/Nitya none of INA WD pairs can advance so far. Angga/Ricky can't beat FHF/ZN this time
Just now watched Lindan vs Tommy replay . The atmosphere was extremely noisy. Players should be ready for anything. They should not bother about the noise. As they already knew about the atmosphere, they should forget about the outside disturbances. Unbelievable.. JONATHAN won CTC in straight games.
Without CM, I think the coast is clear for SN to contend with the Chinese trio : LXR, WYH and WSX to reach the final and win the INA SSP again.
Well, she is not exactly a junior - she is 25(same as Saina). But still, she is having a good run of form. Japan will have tough time choosing between Akane, Nozomi, Yui and Sayaka.
Sorry I immediately thought she is the same Japanese player who just won the New Zealand GPG. It turns out that JPN player is junor: Saena Kawakami.
Well that will mean that Japan actually has 5 players to choose between in WS. If Saena Kawakimi is able to beat He Bing Jiao, then she must be a very good player.
Even Taufik Hidayat, the local hero, always felt annoyed with the noisy from the crowd. I still remember watching Taufik Hidayat in INA Open (forgot which year). If I'm not mistaken, the opponent was Wong Choong Hann of Malaysia. He felt very annoyed, so he asked the crowd to be quiet. Not surprisingly, Taufik got booed by the crowd.
Hey guys,the LD we saw in sudirman cup was full of motivation.Looked safe from all side but suddenly these two crap showings have put so many questions in my mind.Just watched his few 2012 matches but even in those he looked so stable while both defending and attacking that it mentally break the opponent.But this version is not only unstable and slow while defending but also extremely error prone and sometimes toothless in attack.So,not sure what to expect from him from now on
Indeed. Today most of the matches of Indians were not on watchable court. Hopefully that will change tomorrow. India's matches: Srikanth vs Ginting. Kashyap vs Son Wan Ho(has become a frequent fixture) Saina vs Hsu Ya Ching And Jwala-Ashwini made it too, tiring Saina's opponent in the process.
