LXR won easily. Told you. WYH will do the same. China won't accept losing to Europeans. CM is the exception, as she's way too good for them right now anyway.
That I think of it, it seems plausible what you are saying. Not of WYH, but LXR's scores did seem a bit suspicious. In both the 2nd and 3rd games she allowed a lead of almost 12-3, before stepping on the paddle.
Looking at the results thus far, all I can say is Korea is still struggling to produce world class XD players. Basically all the Korea XD have lot in the first round of the matches. Only ko sung Hyun/ Kim ha Na survived and that too it is doubtful that they can pas beyond the second round. Choi sol kyu / elm hye won are lucky to face a lower ranked player and thus won but it is also doubtful they can surpass the second round. However, son wan ho win over tian houwei brought a little but of cheer to the campaign. After going through string of poor performance and lowing in the first round of the matches, son wan ho finally won the first round but then again it is also doubtful whether he can surpass the second round. Sad to say but really I have to admit that Korea performance has been on a decline.
Wow Li xuerui and both Wang yihan had a narrow win over their opponents today and I must admit that I am totally unimpressed with their performance today. As a player ranking no 1, Li xuerui played so badly today and lost the first set 10-21. In the second and third set her opponent is also leading the game before she catches up. All in it was not a good performance. I just wonder why 3 of the top women singles from China has been on decline lately.
Upset detected. After a string of poor performance, Kenichi tago finally won against Hsu Jen hao 21-19 21-9. Welcome back Kenichi tago. Hsu Jen hao just give up in the second set. Wonder why.
Another upset has been detected. Hsu ya Ching just won against Sindhu in 3 sets. Wow amazing. I guess more upsets re set to come.
My friend who managed to watch the match live at stadium Indonesia told me that Sindhu played badly today. She was totally not focused and cannot seem to concentrate throughout the whole match. Hsu ya ching on the other hand played very well and control her game very well. Sindhu makes lots of mistakes. This is not her day.
I did not watch the game. But i am sure she does not want to lose to her compatriot in the second round any way.
Although Kim hyo min lost to akane Yamaguchi today, lee Hyun Il won today. That goes to show that Japan have many strong send good young WS players. Lee Hyun Il is still the best bet for Korea in MS. he should be able to qualify and play for 2016 Olympics.
