Predictions for matches involving INA players:
MS R16
Sony Dwi Kuncoro vs Tanongsak Saensomoonsuk - the chance is high for Sony to go far in this tourney, as long as his stamina allows him.
Dionysius Hayom Rumbaka vs Tommy Sugiarto - I would like Tommy to progress to his first SS QF, but, I think Hayom will prevail.
MD R16
Markis Kido/Hendra Setiawan [4] vs Hoon Thien How/Tan Wee Kiong - a tricky tie for Kido/Hendra and I hope they can focus to win this one.
Angga Pratama/Rian Agung Saputro vs Hirokatsu Hashimoto/Noriyasu Hirata [8] - the 4th encounter between these 2 pairs this year and the score is 2-1 for the JPN pair. Angga/Rian need to beat them again.
Mads Conrad-Petersen/Jonas Rasmussen vs Bona Septano/Mohd Ahsan [3] - Bona/Ahsan's confidence is still low and that's not a good sign for the London Olympics. They really need to win some big matches this week to restore their confidence, starting from the Danish pair.
WD R16
Bao Yixin/Zhong Qianxin [5] vs Pia Zebadiah Bernadeth/Rizky Amelia Pradipta - this will be the end of the road for Pia/Rizky. They should be ranked in the top 65 by next week.
Satoko Suetsuna/Miyuki Maeda [4] vs Vita Marissa/Nadya Melati - ditto for Vita/Nadya.
Jwala Gutta/Ashwini POnnappa vs Meiliana Jauhari/Greysia Polii [8] - Mel/Grace to take this one and build on their momentum from last week.
Anneke Feinya Agustine/Nitya Krishinda Maheswari vs Jung Kyung Eun/Kim Ha Na [2] - the KOR pair to progress to QF.
XD R16
As expected, Fran Kurniawan/Shendy Puspa Irawati receive a free pass to QF, thanks to Towi/Butet's late withdrawal.
He Hanbin/Bao Yixin [5] vs Hendra Setiawan/Vita Marissa - I don't think Hendra/Vita can beat CHN's no 3 XD pair.
