chong wei will meet lin dan or peter gade in semis.... chong/woon from malaysia vs lee/lee... tough draw for malaysians in all catogories..
interesting early MS matches: R3 - LCW vs NTM - LCW could be out early again if he's not careful. R3 - LD vs BCL - BCL is unlucky to get LD in his quarter, early exit here. same goes for PG in the QF. R3 - BP vs PSH - a replay of the Sin Open SF, should be another exciting game.
Yay! The draws finally out, Just like earlier prediction, there's a lot of interesting matches (or scenario) from early rounds Lots of possible UPSET also, hehe ,-P

My prediction for MS : QF: LCW Vs Kuncoro Gade vs LinDan Chen Jin vs Choon Hann Taufik vs PSH SF: LCW-LD TH-CJ F: LCW-TH Winner : TH Ill probably be wrong in the SF although i really do hope that LD loses
They will meet each other in R16. The winner should face either Simon Santoso [13] or Joachim Persson [7] in the QF. Simon himself should clear the first 2 rounds without much problems. As for Sony Dwi Kuncoro [6], he should also clear the first 2 rounds, followed by either Chetan Anand [15] or Hong Ji Hoon in R16. Lee Chong Wei [1] should await him in QF. I have to say that Taufik Hidayat [4] does have a very favorable draw all the way till QF, where he's slated to meet either Boonsak Ponsana [16] or Park Sung Hwan [8]. If he can either player, he should meet Chen Jin [2]. There's absolutely a good chance for him to enter the Final yet again
Let me start with INA's WS and WD. Maria Kristin Yulianti [15] -- she's given a good draw in the first 2 rounds and in R16, she will meet Pi Hongyan [8] for a place in the last 8. If Maria Febe can beat Pi, I hope Maria Kristin can also follow suit! Wang Yihan [4] will await her in the SF. Adriyanti Firdasari -- she should clear the first round, but Lu Lan [7] awaits her in R32. Meiliana Jauhari/Shendy Puspa Irawati [9] -- straight-forwards opponents in the first 2 rounds, followed by Ma Jin/Wang Xiaoli [6] in R16. Nitya Krishinda Maheswari/Greysia Polii [13] -- they should reach R16 but Du Jing/Yu Yang [5] await them.
INA's XD: Nova Widianto/Liliyana Natsir [2] -- they are lucky to avoid Zheng Bo/Ma Jin [3] in their half of the draw. Instead, they are slated to face He Hanbin/Yu Yang [4] whom they have beaten many times so far. They should clear the first 2 rounds, followed by either V. Diji/Jwalla Gutta [8] or Robert Mateusiak/Nadiezda Kostiuczyk [12] in QF. If they can reach the Final, either Zheng/Ma or the top-seed Lee Yong Dae/Lee Hyo Jung will await them. Let's hope Nova can retire with a 3rd World Championships title! Devin Lahardi/Lita Nurlita [16] -- they should fulfill their seeding without any problem, but then Thomas Laybourn/Kamilla Rytter-Juhl [7] will await them in R16.

INA's MD: Markis Kido/Hendra Setiawan [1] -- a first match against Tsai Chia-Hsin/Hu Chung-Hsien, followed by probably Cho Gun Woo/Yoo Yeon Seong and Mohd Fairuzizuan Mohd Tazari/Mohd Zakry Abdul Latif [8] in the QF. If they can reach the SF, then either Lars Paaske/Jonas Rasmussen [3] or Cai Yun/Fu Haifeng [6] await them for a place in the Final. Not easy at all..... Bona Septano/Mohd Ahsan [7] -- a bad draw for then, with a first match against Guo Zhendong/Xu Chen. If they can beat Guo/Xu, they should reach QF and probably face Jung Jae Sung/Lee Yong Dae [4]. Rian Sukmawan/Yonathan Suryatama Dasuki [11] -- Rian/Yoke also have a tricky first match against Chai Biao/Liu Xiaolong. If they can beat Chai/Liu, then, they should reach R16 where Mohd Fairuzizuan Mohd Tazari/Mohd Zakry Abdul Latif [8] await them.
Both INA WD have tough test at R/16, possibly their journey will end at this round. badMania, Maria Kristin will face Pi Hongyan at R/16 not quarterfinal...
A relatively easy draw for CJ............WC in the making.........hehehe SS and TH also consider as in easier draw.......in the 2nd half...only has CJ, SS, TH, BP and PSH.............good luck
