[CLELY]

Hmm, today's QF will start at 4.00pm and it means late night in major Asia countries (10.00pm Jakarta time ; 11.00pm MAS/SIN/CHN time).

MS -- Tough test for LD before he takes revenge to PSH tomorrow. Lu Yi, new name from CHN squad -- is he prepared by LYB to join CHN's MS-4 soon?!CY should be okay to overcome DEN's next-generation.

WS -- Exciting match between Hwang and Petya.

MD -- Wanna see INA's debutant Fran/Sigit advance to last four amid KOR dominance here.

XD -- Most tension match World Champ vs unbeatable CHN pair.

I don't think that LD will have too much of a problem agianst Choon Han Wong. I'm rooting for Parsson though, looking forward to what the next generation of Danes bring to the game, especially after the recent influx of China.

[phaarix]

Wow two qualifiers playing each other in MSQF :).

[Dreamzz]

XXF is being whipped by Juliane, 12-3!! :eek:

[phaarix]

Catching up a bit, but definitely not a good start lol.

[Chu Liuxiang]

I think Juliane is going to take the first set, it is 19-8 now.

[Dreamzz]

first blood to JS, 21-10, what's going on??
she's gonna ruin my PAW, hehe ...

[phaarix]

Wow Juliane won first set 21-10, maybe they got it mixed up??

[sickgal]

what!!!! XXF lost in the 1st game..isk isk... jia you jia you!!!

[xt6666]

I think Juliane will give away game 2 and try to win game 3

Hope she can make the sensation!!!

[sickgal]

XXF is now leading now..by 6 points...jia you

[sickgal]

I think Juliane will give away game 2 and try to win game 3

Hope she can make the sensation!!!

do give away for the game 3 as well....:D:D:D

[phaarix]

Mirror of first set in favour of XXF :). Hope Juliane can make it though!

[sickgal]

and XXF wrapped the 2nd game...jia you jia you

[xt6666]

What does "jia you" mean in english?

Something like "come on"?

[phaarix]

What does "jia you" mean in english?

Something like "come on"?

I know it's something like that :).

[Dreamzz]

What does "jia you" mean in english?

Something like "come on"?

yup, literally means add oil, as in to add oil to the fire to make it burn brighter i guess ...

[phaarix]

Can I ask why do players often "give away" the second game and try to win the third? What advantage does that give them? Just curious...

[Dreamzz]

time to recover i guess, if you pushed hard in the first game.
haven't you watched prince of tennis??
:D

[xt6666]

Ok, in germany we have the same phrase/idiom ("gib gas")


game 3: 9-9

guess so, i've never heard of it ... :p
i think XXF's class will prove too much for JS now ...

[Dreamzz]

Oh lol, never thought of that... seems so obvious now :o.

hahaha, i never believe it really works anyway, i reckon just have a real go in both sets, that way, if you do make mistakes, you still have a 3rd set to make up for it.

[sickgal]

XXF..jia you jia you...3 more points to go.....

[sickgal]

and she won!!!! many congrats.......

[phaarix]

That went from like 15-13 to 21-13 in no time at all. Wonder what XXF was doing in the first set?

[alfa2]

XXF havent warmed up her turbine yet in the 1st set..... After 1st set, twin turbo GT3037 system charged in boosting @ 2.0kg/m3......1200ps pure horsepower......3000nm torque....... CRAZY !!!! :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:

[Loopy]

XXF was just observing her opponent, and made her think she could win. Worked like a charm :p

[jamesd20]

beat park first then beat chen yu in final

He will have to beat Anup Sridhar beacuase he beat Park in three games.

Next match to come on will be a good one, ENG Vs CHN in the XD.

[ants]

Lin dan is relieved when Park Sung Hwan lost...

[alfa2]

mas lost:(
wow a real easy win for pi hongyan

[Loopy]

HOngyan Pi vs Xu...
NOT an easy match....
Go Hongyan!

[badMania]

Not a bad start for Sigit Budiarto/Frans Kurniawan as they beat the Malaysian pair in 3 sets and enter the semi-finals. They will now face the top seed Jung Jae Sung/Lee Yong Dae today.

[cyclone9]

astro got show live?
2day 11pm rite?any live online then?

[phaarix]

XXF havent warmed up her turbine yet in the 1st set..... After 1st set, twin turbo GT3037 system charged in boosting @ 2.0kg/m3......1200ps pure horsepower......3000nm torque....... CRAZY !!!! :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:

Haha makes her sound absolutely insane.

[Chu Liuxiang]

Not a bad start for Sigit Budiarto/Frans Kurniawan as they beat the Malaysian pair in 3 sets and enter the semi-finals. They will now face the top seed Jung Jae Sung/Lee Yong Dae today.

They are facing Koo Kien Keat/ Tan Boon Heong in their AE07 first round. If they can beat the Korean pair today, it will boost up their confidence against the Malaysian top pair in Birmingham next week.

[SmashHappy]

16-7 indonesia now....

hope we have a third set :):cool::D

[SmashHappy]

indonesia took 2nd game 21-13

[SmashHappy]

[yannie]

Jung/Lee vs Sigit/Frans 21-12 13-21 21-18
huhuhuhuhuhu

[ants]

Too bad Sigit/Fran lost. In fact yesterday CCM/HTH played better than them. Just that there is many errors commited in the 3rd set.
