Meanwhile Goh Jin Wei & Leong Jun Hao as the strongest junior WS & MS in Malaysia fielded today in their first match. Thailand also fielded Kunlavut Vitidsarn & Pattarasuda Chaiwan as their next powerful junior from White Elephant's country. Korea and Indonesia surely putting their strongest junior team here. Host's team will playing at this afternoon (Session 2). Korea, Malaysia, Thailand and Indonesia will show their strength and topping their group then goes to the knockout stages without any significant problems.
Lol, what's with the team championship draws and India, always in group of death. China was unseeded and floated to groupA with the #1 seeds Korea. Lakshya though won both his matches, he's improved a lot, let's wait for the individual event
QF Result: • KOR vs THA : 3-1 • JPN vs CHN : 3-0 • MAS vs TPE : 3-1 • INA vs SGP : 3-0 SF (at 16.00 local time) • KOR vs JPN • MAS vs INA
Also, this event has no livescore? I wonder why. Even Pan-Am Junior has livescores for both team and individual events.
Goh Jin Wei retired injured, again. INA gets two point from her withdrawal in WS/WD. Tough luck for MAS.
Final Mixed Team : INA vs KOR https://www.tournamentsoftware.com/...7F5F142-EFC0-4C5E-B29F-7F217C313596&match=101 XD: Rinov Rivaldy/Siti Fadia Silva Ramadhanti vs Na Sung Seung/Ah Yeong Seong : 21-19, 18-21, 23-21 MS: Ikhsan Leonardo Imanuel Rumbay vs Seung Hoon Woo : 24-22, 10-21, 8-21 MD: Adnan Maulana/Muhammad Shohibul Fikri vs Kang Min Hyuk/Kim Moon Jun : 18-21, 21-19, 21-16 WS: Gregoria Mariska Tunjung vs An Se Young : 19-21, 21-7, 20-22 WD: Agatha Imanuela/Siti Fadia Silva Ramadhanti vs Kim Min Ji/Lee Yu Rim (running now) For the moment, all 4 categories finished with rubber games and more than 1 hour duration. INA vs KOR : 2 - 2
WD : Agatha Imanuela/Siti Fadia Silva Ramadhanti vs Kim Min Ji/Lee Yu Rim 19-21 KOR secured first game
WD : Agatha Imanuela/Siti Fadia Silva Ramadhanti vs Kim Min Ji/Lee Yu Rim 19-21, 13-21 Final result : KOR vs INA : 3 - 2 KOR become a champion in junior mixed team event for second time after 2006.
Day 1 Individual Events has started. WS category gives surprise: Myanmar's WS named Thet Htar Thuzar comes from nowhere and managed to topple the 6th seed, Chananchida Jucharoen [THA] in rubber game 21-19, 12-21, 21-15
Interesting to see which player/pair can win the Asian Junior Championship this time. Team CHN is not top seed anymore, maybe it is not possible for them to sweep all title like last year.
Injury. Right thigh injury. News in bahasa here http://m.bola.com/ragam/read/3036048/gregoria-mariska-mundur-dari-kejuaraan-asia-junior-2017 #Tapatalk
Does anyone know why Japan didn't have any players taking part in the individual tournament? I agree that no livescore is very bad. There is great interest in the juniors and if not live telecast at least livescore should be available.
Indeed, I hadn't noticed the absence of Japanese players in the individual event. It's goes to show that junior tournaments , with the exception perhaps of the World Juniors, are generally taken lightly, esp by the fancied nations/players.
Well, except for JPN players, I don't think other fancied nations like KOR, INA are taking lightly of this tournament. CHN team, only a few can actually compete in this tournament due to low ranking, I suppose they are taking lightly of tournaments these day.
