Korea Open Super Series Premier : Qualification Round (25-Jan-2011)

Matsutomo and Kazuno lost their XD. :( Ueda Takuma lost his MS too. :( So sad for Ueda, can't see him enter main draw. :(

Yes, Korea like Indonesia, has many talented players who seldom play in the bigger events. So there'll probably appear to be more upsets when the tournament is held in their homeground.
 
hmm
looks like hkv still lack some experience to close the match
this is very valuable experience for him
 
Tommy Sugiarto took 1st set from CYK 22-20. He almost lost it after leading throughout the game, but managed to win that set. Now leading 8-3. He is really getting better isn't he? CYK is no easy meat.
 
Now Tommy Sugiarto suddenly took the lead back. 15-12. Should be interesting match.
 
Yes! Tommy Sugiarto advanced to main draw by defeating Chan Yan Kit 22-20 21-15.
 
congrat Tommy Sugiarto, ur decision of leaving pelatnas is now worth enough, hope u can gain top 20 by the middle of this year
 
Poon Lok Yan has made the score in the first set a more respectable 21-13 and is level 7-7 in the second.
.
Why suddenly no more scores from the Poon Lok Yan-vs-Ayane Kurihara match?

Let's record it;

Game 1: PLY-AK 13-21
Game 2: PLY-AK 21-19

Game 3:
PLY-AK 10-14
PLY-AK 11-15
PLY-AK 11-17 (Looks like AK will qualify)
 
The Poon Lok Yan-vs-Ayane Kurihara match

Game 1: PLY-AK 13-21
Game 2: PLY-AK 21-19

Game 3:
PLY-AK 11-17 (Looks like AK will qualify)
PLY-AK 11-19
PLY-AK 12-20
PLY-AK 14-20
PLY-AK 16-20 (Can PLY come back?)
 
Tommy Sugiarto's decision to compete in the both the MAS SS and KOR SSP is rewarded with qualifications to Main Draw in both tourneys. Not to mention, he will have played against both Lee Chong Wei and Lin Dan by tomorrow. An excellent start to the year I should say for Tommy! He should be aiming at the top 20 very very soon.
