XD top-seed He Hanbin/Yu Yang has advance to quarter beat home pair, 21-8,21-16.

Bok/Bowman took 2nd set 21-15....come INA!! revenge!!

Hmm, INA XD Nugroho/Poluakan lost to Scotland-England combination pair at second game, 15-21. The match is going to rubber now...

Chen Yu vs Rumbaka: 3-6.....INA XD is on the way to qtr...

Yes! Nugroho/Poluakan win over Bowman/Bok,21-17,15-21,21-12 to face hard test He/Yu in last eight.

Anggun Nugroho/Nathalia def Bok/Bowman: 21-17,15-21,21-12....good luck against He Han Bin/Yu Yang...not bad for this new combination to qtr...

Chen Yu Vs Rumbaka 11-10...Rumbaka was leading 9-6,10-8...come on Hayom!!!

Can Hayom take 1st set?? 16-14

wow..17 all..come on INA

I wonder how much you need to pay for your mobile phone bill?!
Sending and receiving all those SMS, hahaha!

well..I am watching livescore too.....beside they send me SMS about service judge who is so amateur....hehe...linesmen are listening to Ipod or chatting while on duty....sigh! if it is true.....:(:( thats scary!!!

Phew!! so close..21-19 for Rumbaka...come on..this is a chance...

well..I am watching livescore too.....beside they send me SMS about service judge who is so amateur....hehe...linesmen are listening to Ipod or chatting while on duty....sigh! if it is true.....:(:( thats scary!!!

Wow, that is scary... it'd suck to be playing there!

INA debutant Dionysius Hayom Rumbaka takes second game 21-19 and push Chen Yu to play rubber.

On 4 courts, INA MS are playing....cmon all of u can win....Tommy leading 13-5...It seems he will take the 1st game easily...

Chen Yu def hayom Rumbaka 21-18,19-21,21-16.....good try from Hayom!! hopefully Ari Wahyu can make it tonight to quarter..

It seems that Andre is struggling against Kestutis...21-18,2-7

Full fight from Hayom Rumbaka when Chen Yu needs 51 mins to overcome this INA youngster!

Tommy Sugiarto thru to qtr defating Dymitro 21-10,21-10...will be interesting if he meets Lu yi

Tommy Sugiarto book quarter ticket as he win so easy against Ukranian Zavadsky, 21-10, 21-10 and probably will meet China Lu Yi tonight.

Kaveh Mehrabi is so lucky....with Chen Hong's withdrawal...he is thru R16 without playing any single game at all...it is chance for Alamsyah to reach his first qtr final ( If I am correct)

Andre,Ari,Tommy are thru to qtr..now we need Alamsyah to make it 4 MS....not bad..

4 INA MS in QF..Alamsyah Yunus Won..Yes!! Indonesia rocks baybe!!!! yeahh!! :D:D:D

It Seems that Xu has revenged her loss from CO...

11-0 Fransisca!? :cool: 12 - 0 ... ever happen before?

wow nana is leading 12-0..wow...now 13-1....

Cheng just woke up....4-14, now 8-14...come on Nana

10-14 now..Cheng got 6 points straight....

Haiya...Nana stucks at 14...11-14 for Cheng

it's a neck to neck game Ananina vs Pai MIn JIe, also happens for Sara Perrson vs Yu Hirayama

Scary thought. All Indonesian semifinal in Men Single.:)

Both Anggun Nugroho/Tantowi Akhmad and Rian Sukmawan/Yonathan Suryatama Dasuki have progressed to the QF to ensure at least a place in the last 4 for INA. Meanwhile, Rendra Wijaya/Fran Kurniawan have lost to Michal Logosz/Robert Mateusiak in rubber-sets 20-22, 23-21, 9-21. No power stamina in the rubber-set?

In the WD, Yulianti/Nathalia Christine Yulianti have lost to the top-seed Chien Yu-Chin/Cheng Wen-Hsing 12-21, 12-21 as expected.

MEN'S SINGLES QF
Chen Yu [1] vs Ari Yuli Wahyu Hartanto -- a good achievement for Wahyu in reaching the QF. Can he beat Chen Yu?

Joachim Persson [3] vs Andre Kurniawan Tedjono [8] -- Andre fulfills his seeding, but can he go further in beating the Danes?

Tommy Sugiarto vs Lu Yi -- time for Tommy to prove that he's one for the future. The Chinese has an edge.

Arvind Bhat vs Alamsyah Yunus -- Chen Hong's withdrawal means that those in the lower half benefits and Alam should take advantage.

WOMEN'S SINGLES QF
Fransisca Ratnasari vs Sara Persson -- can Nana continue her good form? I hope so.

MEN'S DOUBLES QF
Anggun Nugroho/Tantowi Akhmad vs Rian Sukmawan/Yonathan Suryatama Dasuki [8] -- Pelatnas vs Djarum and I am leaning towards the Djarum pair.

MIXED DOUBLES QF
He Hanbin/Yu Yang [1] vs Anggun Nugroho/Nathalia Christine Poluakan -- Anggun's experience in the XD is really good to have and his partnership with Lia should be similar to Devin/Lita...a good backup pair that can rise to top 20. However, facing the top seed, they probably stand a small chance only.

The INA players can make it into a All-INA Semi-Finals if they really try hard enough and luck is on their side. First up is Ari Yuli Wahyu Hartanto. He stole the first set from Chen Yu, despite trailing 12-15. Chen Yu only managed to win 1 more point as Wahyu took it 21-16.

It's pretty tight in the second set, with scores locked at 14-14.

Chen Yu on a roll, taking the second set 21-16.

Chen Yu is pulling away, 17-15 in the decided. experience looks set to prevail over youth.

Yup...Chen Yu took it 16-21, 21-16, 21-16.

a little insident in 1st set or 2nd set chen yu vs wahyu..wahyu was protesting the umpire about the court's carpet.. it seemed in the middle of court there was "peeled-off/un-glued" carpet (lem karpetnya terkelupas.. badmania can you translate it in proper english :))

now, can rising star Andre Tedjono make it to the semis? I think he can, in 3 games.

Your translation is fine :)

Andre seems to have a grip over the first set, unless he did a "Fira" earlier on...:rolleyes: Joachim Persson is catching up.

Andre takes the first set 21-15. Can he maintain his fine form?

Andre seems to have a grip over the first set, unless he did a "Fira" earlier on...:rolleyes: Joachim Persson is catching up.
it's a pity Fira lost in two very tight games..

seems tedjo will cruish to the next round... :)

He Hanbin/Yu Yang are totally dominant, taking the first set 21-13.

Meanwhile, Andre still leads 11-7 in the second set.

Live newswire from the stadium:
Joachim is angry with Andre as Andre's racquet seemed to have touched the net many many times. Andre replied: if indeed so, please foul me. So far no such decision by the umpire. Joachim is still emotional and his game is controlled by Andre at the moment.

Nana also leads 11-8 at the interval of the first set.

sigh.. my livescore is 'locked' ....

From 13-7, and its now 14-14 :rolleyes:

Crucial 3 points for Andre...as he leads 18-15. But now, its back at 18-18.

an insident [again] happened in joachim vs andre... joachim was angry with andre.. becos joachim thinks.. andre's racquet has hit the net so many times.. andre replied joachim's anger " if i have hit the net.. the umpire must have foul me.. so far no such desicion by the umpire" joachim is still in an emostion.. the game is being controlled by andre

19-18 now....20-18...2 match points for Andre...

now.. joachim is calm down.. he is playing tactical and not 'careless' and he's leading

Andre Kurniawan Tedjono has progressed to the Semi-Final after beating Joachim Persson in straight sets 21-15, 21-18. He will meet the top-seed Chen Yu tomorrow.

As expected, He Hanbin/Yu Yang beat Anggun Nugroho/Nathalia Christine Poluakan 21-13, 21-19. But, the INA pair gave a credible fight in the second set. I think Pelatnas will keep this pair and try them out in a few more tourneys next year. Good result in reaching the QF.

Meanwhile, Fransisca Ratnasari also takes the first set 21-13.

Anggun/Natalia put up a good fight, but eventually lost to He/Yu 13-21, 19-21.

wow.. andre finally won it :) ..congrats to him

joachim smacked his racket down... after the match.... he..he

I was about to write this one, but u beat me to it :p

hmmm i'm about to offline...

good night evryone :)

The thread is eerily quiet with no Malaysians :p
No jampi-jampi, reverse pyschology or whatever madness being thrown in ;)

are you guys watching livestreaming? where?

are you guys watching livestreaming? where?

No, but we have someone watching live in the stadium and relaying the news back to us :D

Amazing....Fransisca Ratnasari has progressed to the Semi-Final after a straight set 21-13, 21-12 victory over Sara Persson. Will this mark her comeback after a long period of non-performance? She will face Wang Yihan tomorrow.

I don't think here chances are great against Wang Yihan though..but she should try.

Alamsyah is storming ahead 11-4 in just 3 mins at the interval of the first set. Someone is pretty confident Alam will make it to the Semi-Final tomorrow.

are you guys watching livestreaming? where?
Joachim was upset and thought that Andre's racket touched the net....Andre challenged him.....it is good to have someone to relay the news to us......:D:D

No jampi-jampi, reverse pyschology or whatever madness being thrown in ;)
I think these kind of thing are so childish

Alamsyah Yunus takes the first set 21-12....while Tommy Sugiarto is struggling against Lu Yi, as he lets the Chinese player wins 7 straight points...from 7-7 to 7-14 now....before he wins another point :cool:

I think these kind of thing are so childish

Ah....tommy is back...to support Lu Yi of course....:rolleyes:

Ah....tommy is back...to support Lu Yi of course....:rolleyes:
I support yihan not lu yi:p

is Lu Yi china's upcoming star? how old is he?

Lu Yi takes the first set 21-13. Tommy is probably no match to him yet?

Alam still leads 11-10 at the interval of the second set. But, its a much tighter game now.

Alamsyah Yunus is through to the Semi-Final after an easy 21-12, 21-13 victory over Arvind Bhat in just 30 mins. He is likely to face Lu Yi, who's leading right now.

Lu Yi leads 11-8 at the interval of the second set. Can Tommy salvage the game?

I enjoyed the peaceness :p I am sure Hau-Ge and other INA fans are also online.

From the man in the stadium:
"Tommy has tried to move Li Yu from left to right...but he still can't be killed and never give easy balls (ngak mati2...dan gak kasih bola tanggung :D)".

I enjoyed the peaceness :p I am sure Hau-Ge and other INA fans are also online.
but they are not joining you here...actually I wanna accompany you but I have to go in few minutes:)

but they are not joining you here...actually I wanna accompany you but I have to go in few minutes:)

It's all right...the other Tommy has lost 13-21, 14-21 anyway :p So it's Chen Yu vs Andre Kurniawan Tedjono; Lu Yi vs Alamsyah Yunus; Fransisca Ratnasari vs Wang Yihan tomorrow.

Just watchinglives core..tomorrow CHN vs INA in MS

It's all right...the other Tommy has lost 13-21, 14-21 anyway :p So it's Chen Hong vs Andre Kurniawan Tedjono; Lu Yi vs Alamsyah Yunus; Fransisca Ratnasari vs Wang Yihan tomorrow.

Chen Yu not Chen Hong...time to revenge for Chen yu
Lu yi vs yunus will be tight
I hope Yihan Will make it to final

It's all right...the other Tommy has lost 13-21, 14-21 anyway :p So it's Chen Hong vs Andre Kurniawan Tedjono; Lu Yi vs Alamsyah Yunus; Fransisca Ratnasari vs Wang Yihan tomorrow.

I do not say that all of them...only badmania elaborates it....:mad::mad:

Rian/Yoke are on fire, leading 11-4 in just 2 mins. Anggun Nugroho is probably too tired after playing 3 matches today :rolleyes:

Rian/Yoke are on fire, leading 11-4 in just 2 mins. Anggun Nugroho is probably too tired after playing 3 matches today :rolleyes:
Eventhough they are not tired...it is tough to beat Rian/Yoke...at least Anggun/Tantowi is working out compare to Lingga Lie...( is that Anggun/Lingga or Tantowi/Lingga in vietnam open?)

Eventhough they are not tired...it is tough to beat Rian/Yoke...at least Anggun/Tantowi is working out compare to Lingga Lie...( is that Anggun/Lingga or Tantowi/Lingga in vietnam open?)

Anggun is more experienced after all. Rian/Yoke have won the first set 21-17 in just 8 mins. One thing though, Yoke tends to lose focus easily....

The match is only 12 mins old, yet, Rian/Yoke already lead 11-8 at the interval of the second set :eek: At this rate, it's surely going to be over and done with in less than 20 mins.

It will be great match if Rian/Yoke vs Ikeda/Sakamoto in semifinal

Wow..Rian/Yoke needed 18 mnts to eliminate Nugroho/Tantowi......good outing for Nugroho/Tantowi....

It will be great match if Rian/Yoke vs Ikeda/Sakamoto in semifinal

I have begun to like the Japanese pairs right now. Keita Masuda is such a nice guy :D Shuichi Sakamoto/Shintaro Ikeda have won their match and will await Rian Sukmawan/Yonathan Suryatama Dasuki in the Semi-Final tomorrow. Rian/Yoke beat the Pelatnas pair of Anggun Nugroho/Tantowi Akhmad 21-17, 21-13 in just 16 mins :eek:

I agree it will be a great match! That's all for today folks...bedtime :D

Most of japanese players are nice, not only Keita........hope Rian/Yoke can make it to final.....they need big points to stay inside top 30 for SS 2008.....

will Rian/Yoke play regularly in SS tourneys next year?

will Rian/Yoke play regularly in SS tourneys next year?

I think they will play in at least Malaysia, Korea, Singapore and Indonesia for a start. Not sure about All England and Swiss. As for the others, if their ranking and performance are stable, they should be sent at least to the Japan, Hong Kong and China (2).

The thread is eerily quiet with no Malaysians :p

..yeah, what happened??:confused:..it seems like there are no M'sian players playing in this tourney?!:confused:

I think these kind of thing are so childish

ha..ha i think BC will be more colorful with these kinds of thing :p :p ...
