Meanwhile. Lee Chia Hsin is on course to face off Akane tomorrow after taking care of Kim Ga Eun in two straight sets, 21-18,21-16.
It's exactly same scoreline for Lin Guipu def. Lee Cheuk Yiu. Two Chinese boys advance into last four, Shi Yuqi v Aditya Joshi and Lin Guipu will meet either Ginting or Tsuneyama.
Anthony Ginting Sinisuka [3/4] is through to the SF after beating Kanta Tsuneyama [5/8] in 3-sets. He will face the second-seed Lin Guipu for a place in the Final tomorrow.
Must say i'm not sure if Busanan will be able to fully recover from playing in China before the World Championships in Denmark on Monday. She has an afternoon match (1pm vs Corales) which should help her but the travelling and jet lag will be a factor.
I don't think she will win over HBJ because she was injuried Rt. thigh and doctor advice her don't more jump.
I didn't realize that HBJ is so stocky and wields a powerful smash. They are level now at 7-all in G2.
Busanan has not been able to seize the attack and is under a lot of pressure. Will she be able to make a comeback? However she clawed back, to close the gap at 12-14.
She didn't attack because she was injuried and I want her coach should let's her withdraw from WBC too.
Sorry to hear that Busanan is injured, she is certainly one of the favourites for gold here. Tell her to take care, still hope to see her at Copenhagen. Though He BJ won , I feel that her fitness is a bit suspect, esp when the rallies wear on. Frankly, she surprised me today, her best game so far, hope she can carry on the momentum tomorrow.
