2015 Yonex-Sunrise HONG KONG Open SS : Qualifying & R/32 (17th & 18th November)

And Srikanth qualifies...............Unlucky tommy.....

Thanks ...,never mind.

 

It used to be, but it changed location, to a district called Hung Hom, on the continent. Many regret the old venue.

 

More and more young adults players are getting better and better as time goes by, threatening the senior established players, eg,Anthony Ginting, Kenta Nishimoto, today.

 

Thank You, Mr Renbo.

 

Nozomi played well but I was watching LXR from the side (my seat was on the court's side) and on many shots I could clearly see that she did even try to reach for the shuttle. Instead of making a step forward to get a drop, she just did stand and looked at it!

 

Does anyone know what this kind of tape is at Mustofas left knee?
Many players play with such a tape - is it something like kinesio tape?
Does it have the same effect as an Patella knee strap/band?
I was always wondering about that..

 

Lin Dan is treating it as a sparring match.

 

Sindhu totally lost faith in the second game against Marin.

I thought before today that Marin was shouting so strongly because there were so microphones directed to the players, so we can hear the "pop" of the smashes... but actually in the live condition, she shout even more loudly! The whole stadium only hear her shouts!

 

Meanwhile Hu Yun, as usual, is commanding respect...

 

She's a natural loudspeaker.

 

And there goes Hu Yun losing the first set of the game. Funny guy with unpredictable results. He played so well last week reaching the quarterfinals. Then today....

 

I think so...

 

All this rallying is getting comfortable for Mustofa who is settling into his rhythm.

 

I dozed off watching Mustofa vs LD match.

 

Lin Dan playing like this will only embolden Mustofa.

 

Glad that you are back but sad where is [MENTION=29595]ngkt67[/MENTION] ? Oh wow what happened? Dozed off watching such an interesting match?

 

Lin Dan is playing himself into a rut. Wake up and stop thinking about next week's trip to Rio.

 

Not interesting. I just saw one and only smash from LD at 14-19.

 

Oh really? Gosh. I am sure Lin Dan still can win. He is on fire to win.

 

21-15 in the 2nd game. We are treated to a rubber says GC.
