2016 YONEX ALL ENGLAND Open SSP - QUARTER FINALS (11th March)

Come on Okuhara! 14-6 lead in game 1.

 

15-6 for the young japanese warrior

 

You mean the in-game comeback? Perhaps. But their H2H is 7-7 now. So it's not surprising that WSX beat LXR.

 

Okuhara crushing WYH! 17-6. Unbelievable.

 

Absolute domination from Nozomi Okuhara, 18-6 now

 

Yes and such an unbelievable result too. This match is too one sided to be true.

 

9-5 for the Danish pair now. I can already predict that the Danish pair will surely win this match.

 

You must not have seen Okuhara play to say this. She's the absolute beast in WS these days. She won her 6 matches at the Dubai Series Finale all in straight sets. And before that went to the final of Hong Kong Open all in straight sets (before losing to marin). The only player who has really managed her is LXR, and it still took 3 games

 

I do not check the H2H. I always feel WSX has a disadvantage playing fellow WHY or LXR. She only knows to drop, net and no smash whatsoever.

 

11-6 has proven it now.

 

Even if the Korean WD win the match today, tomorrow they will also be grilled by the China WD. So hmm.... losing today is not such a bad idea after all.

 

12-7 now and I am already in tears watching this match live.

 

Wang Yihan starting to work harder now, two very good rallies

 

Yes you are right after all. I know Nozomi is a great WS player. She has won over Carolina Marin too.

 

3 straight cross court winners now, good to see YH abusing that

 

At court 3 looks like Hans Kristian Vittinghus is set to win this match.

 

WYH under severe pressure to be picked for Rio. I have a feeling the result of this match will carry a big weighting!

 

Come on Jung Kyung Eun / Shin Seung Chan don't give up. Please play your best. You are the only Korean WD left. Please....

 

Looks tough for WYH.

 

DEN team slowly but surely securing their place in the SF
