Better KS keeps aggressive attitude from the beginning.. After a tiring day he can not afford giving his opp a single point lead any time.. The tides can turn any time on any side he should be cautious.. Nice AJ is going on track wow.. I wasn't expecting him in QF..well his JPN opp is way too strong..he seems to be strong built and must be confident psychologically I am afraid he may knock out 2nd Indian in a row
Without watching Sun Yu's matches I can only wonder what happened. In R1, she struggled with Sayaka Sato the first two sets before asserting herself to take G3 convincingly. Yesterday in R2, she scored an emphatic victory over Hsu Ya Ching who's no pushover, I remembered she once beat Liu Xin recently. Now in R3 Sun Yu just blew Porntip away, esp in G2 in a one-sided match, 21-11 and 21-5 in 31 mins. Porntip is one of my favourite Thai players. Unfortunately,her form has taken quite a dip for some time.
I never expected Srikanth to win the match with this scoreline 21-11,21-12 against Takuma Ueda. Good work
I doubt there isn't any live broadcasting on SS here (India).. Maybe due to busy schedule.. Anybody knows anything else??
Absolutely.. And that to after exhaustive match yesterday.. I thought all his fuel was spent yesterday and he will struggle again today but its a grand victory..C'mon KS now go and lift the trophy
WYH struggling to get her act together. I don't think it'd be any different in G2. WYH's problem is with herself.
I think China has actually depended on Wang Yihan, Wang Shixian and Lee Xuerui for too long. All these players are getting old and they are also prone to injuries. that is the main reason. That is why Busanan Ongbumrumpan won against Wang Yihan today 21-13, 21-15. At first I did predict that Wang Yihan will win based on the ranking but what I can say now is Wang Yihan is definitely a goner and it will be very difficult for her to win in the coming tournaments now.
Looks like the series of tough games this past week have taken a toll on Wang Yihan. She is not at her previous peak obviously but just going through the motions it seems.
Before Busanan vs WYH match ,I didn't expect BO win compare base of last week WYH beat MM and Nazomi but she won.
Okay so far my predictions are correct for the first five matches at court 1 and 2 except for court 2 women single match of Wang Yihan vs Busanan. Well, till now I am till saying this OMG!!! OMG!!! What has happened to you Wang Yihan? Why did you lost today? I guess Wang Yihan really needs to be allowed to retire for good since she cannot perform well anymore.
Ajay won Kasumasa sakai in 3 sets. 21-17,23-21,21-15. Infact he saved 2 match points before taking the 3rd set. Well done. Now Final is confirmed for either of the indians who is going to fight against each other for the final ticket.
Okay sorry guys another wrong prediction for the fifth match at court 1 today. Wow amazing. Ajay Jayaram just won the match against Kamumasa Sakai. Wow who would have thought after losing the first match 17-21, he bounced back to win 23-21, 21-15. WOW this is indeed a good sign for the Indian player lol. I think a lot of Indian players are improving in badminton very fast.
