Yonex FRENCH Open 2016 : Qualification-Round of 16 (25-27 October)

Missed the ROG? I wouldn't have quoted Marcus/Chris merely as "unseeded English pair"
They were fab then, and tbh I kinda expected it

I never expect top China MD to lose to pairs from England or Russia.

Anyway, the "unseeded English pair" just lost, so that's more expected.
 
Lol, VA just lost the opening game to LHI after leading at the end. I guess he did not do his homework after that embarrassing loss on home soil last week...
 
for the first time in this year 2016, none of MAS representatives reach quarterfinals of SS tournament as they fell in round 16...
 
Not sure who's being ignorant. I'd bet on a top China player to beat a top Australian player any day. Hopefully my point is made.
Even the rejects of the Chinese national team will most likely easily beat a top Australian player... no disrespect to Australia...

Most of elite shuttlers continue their trip to one of Europe top destination city, Paris but there're several notable names have withdrawn, defending champion Carolina Marin, Rio bronze medalist Nozomi Okuhara, former world Champion Ratchanok Intanon, newly-crowned DEN Premier winner Tanongsak Saensomboonsuk, Indian number one Srikanth Kidambi, men's doubles top-seed Chai/Hong, Malaysian mixed doubles leading combination Chan PS/Goh LY.

Three-time OG silver medalist Lee Chong Wei who got shocking exit last week in Odense will be all out to defend his crown here. He's tipped to meet stern test at Wei Nan at last sixteen then Denmark Open runner-up Son Wan Ho in quarterfinal. Second seed Viktor Axelsen once again will take on Jeon Hyeok Jin and followed by most likely Lee Hyun Il, exactly identical scenario with previous week Premier event at homesoil. Both former champions, Jan O Jorgensen and Chou Tien Chen will see familiar foe at opening round to overcome, Marc Zwiebler and Vincent Wong respectively. Indonesia will be represented by their upcoming stars here, the young trio Ihsan-Jonatan-Anthony while China brings world number 6 Tian Houwei alongside with back-ups Qiao Bin, Shi Yuqi, Huang Yuxiang and Xue Song in their aces Chen Long-Lin Dan long break.

The in-form Japanese prodigy Akane Yamaguchi has Thai opponent in her path to quarterfinal, Porntip Buranaprasertsuk and Nitchaon Jindapol, then she's slated to face Sun Yu at final four possible scenario. Bottom-half draw contains almost same cast, rematch of Sung Ji Hyun v Tai Tzu Ying may happen at last eight while He Bingjiao has same quarter with her nemesis P.V. Sindhu. Who will seize the opportunity in this quite less competitive WS category to clinch Superseries title?

Recent All England champion will be one of the front-runner at upper-half of draw also other two seeded pairs as well, Pratama/Suwardi and last year beaten finalist Conrad/Kolding.Thailand well-improved pair, Isara/Phuangphuapet should be the pair to watch out. More challenging draw at bottom half, Rio silver medalist Goh/Tan, China rising combination Li JH/Liu YC, Indonesian promising duo Gideon/Sukamuljo and Danish veterans Boe/Mogensen fill the remaining seeding position.

WD top-two seeds, Matsutomo/Takahashi and Jung KE/Shin SC have opportunity to meet their teammates, Fukuman/Yonao and Chang YN/Lee SH respectively at last eight. Third seed Pedersen/Juhl have complicated test against the on-fire Supajirakul/Taerattanachai at second round, a pretty favourable draw for Maheswari/Polii, they should check into semifinal with two Chinese new experimenting pairs that may trouble them, Ma J/Zhong QX and Huang DP/Li YH.

World number one, Ko SH/Kim HN start their campaign to face tricky HKG pair, Reginald Lee/Chau HW then Lu K/Huang YQ in quarterfinal and either Fischer/Pedersen or The Adcocks at last four. Second seed Jordan/Susanto should clear preliminary rounds and set up a quarterfinal rematch with Chinese new star Zheng/Chen. Another quarter at bottom half will see the debut of Zhang Nan/Li Yinhui partnerships, they will be tested by the vast experienced Polish duo Mateusiak/Zieba at last sixteen.
