Korea Open - Day 4 (QF)

looks like the match i'm looking forward to the most will be the first one.
what a way to start the day!
 
I'm happy that the KO chose to use Tournament Software. It makes it ideal to view the results. I wish all Tournaments would use TS.
 
i thought all the tournaments in the super series would be using TS.
hmmm, maybe that's just wishful thinking on my part, but yeah, i agree, TS is by far the more superior online score tracker!
 
Actually, don't know whether this is TS' fault. But one very important statistic is missing, which is the point progression.
eg.

AA 1 2 2 2 3 3 4 ...
BB 0 0 1 2 2 3 3 ...

I believe among all statistics, that is the most important. I do recall some tournaments that had this. Perhaps the Asian Games or Commonwealth Games.
 
right, down to the business end of things.
my predicted winners on the left ...

MS:

LD vs Roslin
BCL vs CY
Hafiz vs Sony
CJ vs LCW

MD:

TG/CW vs CY/FHF
MK/HS vs LYD/JJS
KKK/TBH vs CTF/LWW
JE/ML vs LJJ/HJM

some excellent matches all round, only people missing are TH and PG, which is a shame.
 
MD
KKK/TBH vs CTF/LWW
JJS/LYD vs MK/HS :) 50-50
FHF/CY vs TG/CW :mad: They have to win!

MS
LD vs RH
BCL vs CY :) 50-50
LCW vs CJ :cool: I guess LCW can handle CJ!
SDK vs HH

XD
KKK/WPT vs ZYW/XZB
GE/NR vs SP/ST

I think that if CHong Wei could win his match against Chen Jin tomorrow, he will find his confidence back.If he is going to lose, his poor run will continue.:(
 
Roslin's gonna do something big in this Korean Open. Last year, he was the runner-up beating chen yu and LCW.

Yeah I kinda agree with this. I think he's losing confidence in himself. A win here would be good for him. They're both in my top 3 favourite players but this time I'll go for LCW :). I think the chances are around 50-50 though I really have no idea who could win. I don't think either of them are currently on top of their game...

I think he loses confidence in his net play,perhaps after the defeat by Taufik in Doha game.
 
Tell me which one of the following result of MS will please you:

1. The Chinese team dominates in the quarter finals, and then one of them take out the winner of Hafiz vs. Sony, to make it an all China final.:p

2. In the semi... we have LD vs BCL or CY, and Hafiz vs LCW... then LD gets a walkover, and LCW gets a walkover from Hafiz.:p

3. M.Hafiz breaks the great wall by beating Sony in QF, CJ in Semi, and LD in finals... THIS WILL MAKE ME LAUGH SO HARD IF IT EVER HAPPENS THIS YEAR.:rolleyes::eek::eek:

Doha...???:eek: He was done ever since WC 06, and of course the defeat by Taufik in Japan Open which LCW lost in rather bad fashion in 2 sets.:(
 
I still cannot belive it. Nova/Lili lost to England three or maybe fourth mixed doubles???????

Whats wrong with them lately????
 
prolly just a bad day.
with the 21 point system, i feel that your chances of recovering from a bad start are much lower than under the old system.
once you're behind by 5 points or so, you start to get nervous and make more mistakes, then the game can quickly run away from you.

I have seen a great many comebacks under the point-a-rally system.
