Impressive Players so far in AE2007

[X Ball]

So far, LCW shines with an 18minute annihilation of Chetan from India.

Simon Santosa took on KBH and WCH and won. This boy is learning fast.

Dicky Palyama -- upsetting PG, he deserves a medal.


Who else ? Chen Jin and Yu are looking like they will be there in the last 8.

[tjl_vanguard]

impressive frm Chong Wei so far... he must keep his composure and keep it up... i think he can make it to the finals this time... probably winning it...

look at how roslin troubled him yday... but it may be a different thing as well in finals....

big surprise from Dicky yday hahaha.... Simon also doin a great job disposing 3 Msians in a row (ugh....).....

I agree. Dicky's win over Peter Gade was the biggest upset of the tournament. Simon is also in good form.
I hope Chong Wei can maintain his touch throughout the competition. :D

Simon Santosa has become a big "Malaysian Killer" in the tournament so far. His performance is quite impressive beating 3 Malaysian player in a row!

if he can, probably he'll triumph over LD this weekend

[taufik-ist]

Sigit/frans ........:)

[angelatby]

yayaya, words of ENCOURAGEMENT !!!!!!!:D :D :D Cheers LCW !!

[ants]

Will see Dicky Palma's win is a one time deal. Hope he can repeat his performance.

[laura9876543]

what about the scottish girls beating the two japanese girls? the japanese were surely favourites in that game?

[taufik-ist]

haha yes??? wad about them??

this 'new' pair made TBH/KKK work hard :D

[demolidor]

Sony D K is back(!??) :cool:

[Stealthboy]

Come on Robertson and Emms for England in the mixed doubles.

[badders2006]

i have to admit, rob/emms present the greatest challenge to the incredible pair of zheng/bo (who have yet to lose a match together!!)

[black_knight006]

Will see Dicky Palma's win is a one time deal. Hope he can repeat his performance.

You'd better believe it's a one time deal!!

Wong Mew Choo has been impressive beating 2 chinese players so far to qualify for her first quarter finals appearance at the All England. Good work Mew Choo!

Even though I only followed the livescore of kkk/tbh vs luluk and alvent last night, I have to say that kkk/tbh's win over the indons would probably have been a great match to watch since the first set was very close. Luluk and Alvent even held match point at one stage as I recall. Go kkk/tbh! Sustain your impressive form!

should also have a mention for impressive performance for defeating 3/4 seeds Kido and Setiawan

My vote goes to Wong Mew Choo also. And also she is the only WS player in the quarterfinal who is not a current or former player from China. So if she is going to win AE this year, she will have beaten 6 current or former Chinese WS players.

Yes, Mew Choo should be mentioned as I don't recall any WS player able to beat two Chinese players consecutively in major event. Glad to know WS has new challenger now.

[angelatby]

But it will be extremely tough match for Mew Choo as she has never beaten Zhang Ning before :crying: :crying:

[cooler]

Yes, Mew Choo should be mentioned as I don't recall any WS player able to beat two Chinese players consecutively in major event. Glad to know WS has new challenger now.but china has 2 guardian temple lions, ZN and XXF. Hard to get pass them :D
The buck stops here, hehe

"Never before" != "Cannot" :)

[abedeng]

Most impressive so far:-

MS - winner (Dicky Palyama - against Gade)
- loser (Roslin - almost beat LD, had he taken 1st game)

WS - winner (WMC - beat 2 new guard CHN players)
- loser (Saina - kept Wang Chen on court longer than expected)

MD - winner (Logotz/Mateusiak - beat last week's German Open Champs)
- loser (none)

WD - winner (Scottish pair - beat 2nd cute Jap pair in 1st round)
- loser (3rd Jap pair - almost wiped the smile off Gao Ling -inexperience cost them dearly)

XD - winner (Jung/Hwang - beat the best Danish combination)
- loser (Joanne Quay/Daniel Shirley - forced extended deuce on both sets against World Champs)

[tjl_vanguard]

"Never before" != "Cannot" :)
good one bro... haha :D

[tjl_vanguard]

U kiddin me? They r playin our KKK/TBH today man. All the best??? lol.....
hahaha i dun mind cuz i have faith that KKK will be bald after this weekend so i dun bother hahahahaha :D:D:D

[hcyong]

Polish pairs make quite an impression this All England.

[Han]

What we have forgotten is Chen Yu, quietly he has advanced to QF without dropping a game, just like Chong Wei and only one of them will be a happy man after today.
Wonder when will Chong Wei use his call line to consult Li Mao :D

[Shiro]

I agree that Mew Choo heve been really impressive but....dunno about today.
I hope she can put up a good fight against Zhang Ning...the effort counts more than the result..
It does not matter if she has tried her best...yet loses in the end.

Somehow......
I think Shoji Sato has been quite impressive in a quiet way...
I thought he would never pass his first round!!!
In a way, he attracted my attention....
So...I hope he will do his best against Bao Chun Lai..

I think wong mew choo is a bird, she dosnt have to get pass of them, she just have to flyyyyyyyyy over them. he he he....

[abedeng]

If we start having non-CHN challengers beating CHN new blood in CHN-dominated WS domain, it will probably force LYB to ask Zhang Ning and Xie Xingfang to play as long as possible. How long can they last, ZN is > 30 and XX = 27.

But hey, it's good for the sport, with WMC, Yippie, Saina, Schenk, Hirose, not to mention those ex-CHN players providing decent opposition.

[nellute]

WMC has impressed me the most so far. It will be a tough order tonite. Hope she can put up a good fight.

[markchan]

"Never before" != "Cannot" :)

Never say never.......there's always a 1st time...:D ......and I hope the 1st time is tonite...hehe:D

[X Ball]

LCW is said to be ready --- after losing coach Li Mao, he is now more relaxed.....looking at his last two matches, he seemed to be at ease with himself.

The man seems to have picked up his mojo again, playing fast and powerful. If looks is anything to go by, LCW is ready to swamp his opponents. Don't believe me, check it out in about 2 hrs time.

[nugroho]

i vote for sony DK. he has comeback... the real test will be today...
Lin Dan ....

I only believe the results, nothing personal after so many failure from Hafiz vow after vow ... Chen Yu has been playing very well, I rather Chong Wei to meet Bao at this stage.
