Sindhu (IND) MD - Danny Bawa Chrisnanta/Chayut Triyachart (SIN) WD - Ou Dongni/Yu Xiaohan (CHN) XD - Edi Subaktiar/Gloria Emanuelle Widjaja (INA) M/Q Report version 1 (updated 23rd October 2015) : http://www.bwfbadminton.org/file.aspx?id=677879&dl=1 DRAW date : 3rd November 2015 Some top names have been registered to secure more points for Rio 2016, Lee Chong Wei, Srikanth Kidambi, Son Wan Ho, Li Xuerui, Ratchanok Intanon, Wang Yihan, Liu XL/Qiu ZH, Ko SH/Shin BC, etc., it's definitely more competitive than last year edition.
Koo Kien Keat/Tan Boon Heong not taking part this tournament, seems like they ran out of budget to participate this tournament...
Some notable withrdrawals according to M/Q Report version 3 (updated 2nd November 2015) : http://www.bwfbadminton.org/file.aspx?id=678996&dl=1 Tommy Sugiarto (INA), Parupalli Kashyap (IND), Marc Zwiebler (GER), Li Xuerui (CHN), Wang Yihan (CHN), Goh VS/Tan WK (MAS), Vivian Hoo/Woon KW (MAS), Jordan/Susanto (INA), Chan PS/Goh LY (MAS). DRAW as released by BWF yesterday => http://www.bwfbadminton.org/file.aspx?id=679058&dl=1 Interesting MS opening round matches, Srikanth v Christie and Vincent Wong WK v Heo KW. The strong fave Lee CW should pass quarterfinal and will set a meeting with either HKG veteran Hu Yun or Thai #1 Tanongsak. In WS, last year final clash between Sindhu v Kim HM will happen very early this time at R/32. Possible R/16 scenario, top-seed Intanon may meet Chinese future star He BJ.
And when they loose big time they will start fixing matches to make up. Not good for the sport. Just a joke to complement your joke.
since LCW has won the super series title 3 in a row this month, will he going to skip this tournament or fight on in this tournament...?
Lee CW has withdrawn according to ts.com last update, another notable names who pulled out from this GP Gold is Ratchanok Intanon, Kakiiwa/Maeda and mixed doubles top-two seeds, Ko SH/Kim HN also Chris & Gabrielle Adcock as well. The tournament will kick off tomorrow, started from qualifying round (08.30am local time, 4 court) and Men's Singles first round later on (02.30pm) => http://www.tournamentsoftware.com/sport/matches.aspx?id=C20101E3-6AD4-46EA-AF21-0F154A195D34 Several R/64 intriguing men's singles matches that may spring upsets, top-seed Srikanth Kidambi will face tricky opening test Indonesian promising star Jonatan Christie. Defending champion Xue Song has Kenta Nishimoto, this Japanese youngster defeated Xue in US Open last July. The much improved Vincent Wong WK will up against former world junior champion Heo Kwang Hee while just concluded HKG Open semifinalist Angus Ng Ka Long will be tested by former Japanese number one Kenichi Tago.

Kidambi Srikanth shown the door in Macau too.Loses in straight sets to Confident Youngster Jonatan Christie He had 2 set points but failed to convert eventually losing the match. Really impressed by JC.Hope to see him and Wei Nan in the finals
No wonder he lost. We have been seeing him in poor spell of his career for some time now. Hope he will bounce back soon or else it is over.
since when srikanth become like that? i remember when watching him plays againts chen long, despite losing the way he play really good. attractive and attacking play. now watch him it didn't seem like him, and hir recent perfomance really draw it
It's over for defending champion, Xue Song as he succumbed to Japanese promising player Kenta Nishimoto, 9-21 / 22-20 and one-way traffic at deciding game, 5-21
CMIIW H2H................ Indonesian Youngsters 4 - 0 Srikanth.....He lost twice to Christie and once to Ginting and Ihsan....
