Thailand Open, Wed, July 4, First day

I agree...has anyone ever heard of endo? he's ranked 226...
simon and boonsak will be a close match...but yeah, the advantage is probably on boonsak.

 

this is only my prediction,sometimes my prediction is wrong

 

My feeling is that Andre is most probably exhausted , both physically and more importantly mentally, from playing in the INA League, losing to a lower ranked player, after having beaten higher ranked players consistently over the last few months...

 

i don't think you're giving PTS enough credit here.
he's been performing very consistently the last couple of tournaments, which is why i'm not surprised to see him do well.
in fact, i backed him to beat andre in my Pick-A-Winner game, bit of a gamble perhaps but i've got confidence in him.

 

who has PTS beaten recently? how far does he go in tourneys?

 

Anup Sridhar bt Lim Kenn 21-17 21-11

 

Ng Wei is still playing? What is his result?

 

Ng Wei defeated Boesiger 18-21 21-12 21-11

 

Just checked the result for this tournament a while ago from tournamentsoftware, and found out that all China team members have won their perspective matches and advanced to the next round. (note: There is no China flag appearing on the right side of the screen which represents the losing side).

 

But I think someone will break this record tomorrow!
Guess Who!

 

All MJ MS are out of Thailand Open.. Sigh..

 

Only 4 players? I thought I saw at least a mixed doubles pair along with the singles... oh well.. not worth while enough to find out.

 

result of the day

Tracy Hallam beating Petya Nedeltcheva 2-0 (21-11 21-18)

 

Yes, I was quite surprised to see this result. Perhaps Petya was worn out from playing in the Superliga.

 

Mixed Bag for Indian Shuttlers

Anup Sridhar - winning both his singles
Chetan Anand - good win over Yan Kit Chan but knocked out by Scot Evans - rusty

Sania Nehwal - knocked out 1st rnd
Trupti Murgunde - thru to rnd 2 meets german Juliane Schenk

Nikhil Kantekar/Anand Pawar/Kashyap P - all 1st rnd losers

 

she shud also be able to beat Cheng Shao-Chieh from Chn Tp 2mrrw

 

I'm picking the Taiwanese girl to win in my PAW so I guess we'll have to see

 

remeber seeing her in 2005 in a tournament scoring agood win over Anita Kaur of IND, but not much since then.

 

After Cheng won the World Juniors in 2004, she climbed steadily and then hit the wall in a big way. Only in the last little while has she been able to show her true talent. Being a small girl, I think she was losing out physically. Also Anita Kaur is from MAS
