According to the indo open web site, Zhang Ning has withdrawn and Zhou Mi obtains a walk over... Does anyone know what happened???
No idea what happenned to Zhang Ning. Despite the misfortune, China is almost assured of the WS title with only Wang Chen standing in the way of 3 other Chinese. Semi match-up: Zhou Mi vs Wang Chen Xie XF vs Gong RN
retired not WO Based on this REPORT (click if you read Chinese), it was retired, not WO. Zhang Ning injured herself during the match against Zhou Mi. not sure if the report is accurate
It's a blessing for Zhou Mi actually. At least she could collect some "bonus" ranking points now. Otherwise, her campaign would have ended in last 8.
according to worldbadminton.net, Zhang Ning had a thigh injury and withdrawed before the match (not retired).
Not really... actually we should treat it as all Chinese finals, since Hong Kong is now part of the mainland.
