2015 Yonex Suffolk CCC US Open GP Gold : Qualification - FINAL (16th-21st June 2015)

Viktor is not afraid of LCW. Such ********. He withdrew because he was tired after a long 4 week trip to Asia prior to this tournament, he said so to Danish media. Reason for him being in NY still is because he is on holiday. By the looks of his facebook along with his sister.
 
Of course it is non sense! Players are not afraid of meeting LCW, I'm sure they like it actually. A good opportunity to improve yourself and see your limits!
 
My Predictions for the Finals:

MS: Malaysia (I'm confident that I'm going to get this right! :D)
WS: Nozomi!
MD: China
WD: China
XD: Hong Kong
 
Anyone can tell me the starting time of the finals? (will watch from live stream as it is not broadcasted in HK)

I check tournament software it says 1pm, is it referring to US Eastern time?

Thanks in advance.

Both China and Japan have three representatives in final day, WS title is secured by Japan player.

WS, Nozomi Okuhara (JPN) v Sayaka Sato (JPN)
H-2-H stats : 1-0
On paper, the former world junior champion is on the way to bag second GP Gold title in 2015 after MAS Open last January but looks like Sayaka Sato in good shape here as she knocked out defending champion Zhang Beiwen (R/16) and 2nd seed Akane Yamaguchi yesterday en route to finale.

XD, Huang Kaixiang/Huang Dongping (CHN) v Reginald Lee Chun Hei/Chau Hoi Wah (HKG)
H-2-H : 0-0
The in form HKG pair has bright prospect to continue their gallant run and join top 10 elite club, they will up against the less experience Chinese juniors Huang KX/Huang DP who disposed first seed Fuchs/Michels in semifinal.

WD, Ayane Kurihara/Naru Shinoya (JPN) v Yu Yang/Zhong Qianxin (CHN)
H-2-H : 0-0
Second international tournament for this new CHN partnership but Yu/Zhong as most Chinese WD show their high quality and big chance to grab WD title here against the resilient and improved Japanese pair, Kurihara/Shinoya who did pretty good job in SUI Open GP Gold last March.

MS, Hans Kristian Vittinghus (DEN) v Lee Chong Wei (MAS)
H-2-H : 0-3
The Malaysian hero Lee CW is unstoppable to top podium and will gain 7000 ranking point which is really important to upgrade his WR that plunging into #180. Vittinghus was really good to tame Chou TC with his tactical game plan but to face high calible player like Lee CW, he needs extraordinary performance to balance speed, power and technical ability.

MD, Li Junhui/Liu Yuchen (CHN) v Manu Attri/B.Sumeeth Reddy (IND)
H-2-H : 0-0
A superb display by Indian MD to eliminate two higher rank Japanese pair and one step closer to create breakthrough in their badminton career. Today, they will take on Chinese Li JH/Liu YC who grabbed GP Gold title and runner up of IC tournament at home soil this year.
 
[MENTION=15311]CLELY[/MENTION] Thank you for your valuable insights! Indian MD dream final and fairytale performance! The Chinese will come hard at them. Odds are heavily against India.
India has a lot of talent but poor guidance, coaching and lack of opportunities for many promising players. India taking small steps in Doubles, want to become like Indonesia. :D
 
Great! This lady has done so well over the past 12 months. However, it will be interesting to see how she is going to be able to break into the top five.
