look like DO title will be the 1st title for WCH after the long break... i can't find any player that got the chance to beat him... if he perform as usual he should win it... a boost 4 his IBF ranking... malaysia boleh!!!
The top seed Anthony Clark/Robert Blair have withdrawn. This will be a wonderful opportunity for the INA pairs (esp Hendra A. Gunawan/Joko Riyadi) to win a title here! Rian Sukmawan/Eng Hian will instead meet the Danish Pair Rasmus Mangor Andersen/Peter Steffensen in the QF. Their semi-final opponents could either be Tan Bin Shen/Ong Soon Hock or Flandy Limpele/Devin Lahardi. Those 2 pairs will meet on Thursday. As for Hendra A. Gunawan/Joko Riyadi, they first have to beat the tricky English pair David Lindley/Chris Langridge, before an expected encounter with Mihail Popov/Svetoslav Stoyanov.
LMAO... shocked... Anyways, I want to see results from Ong Soon Hock and Tan Bin Shen!!! C'mon guys!!! Malaysia Boleh ~
Vita Marissa/Yunita Tetty have won 2 qualifying matches, both in straight sets today and are through to the main draw. Oddly, they receive a bye in the first round So, their next matches are on Thursday, against the winner between Laura Choniet/Elisa Chanter vs Amelie Felx/Florence Lavoie. Should be a manageable tie for them to progress straight to the QF against possibly the top seed Petya Nedeltcheva/Diana Dimova. In the mixed doubles, Hendra A. Gunawan/Endang Nur Sugianti have beaten a Russian pair in rubber-sets and will play again later to earn the right to progress to the main draw. Their match is scheduled at 9:55pm, but, their opponent has to play the first qualifying match at 8:55pm
