Commanding lead for WMC 17-8............

__________________________________________________ ____________

And so....
8th upset : MS, KBH beat Boonsak (8th seed)
Let 2008 be your year of comeback KBH, keep it up!
Make your own signature huh?! :D

Meanwhile WMC is cruising 18-7...

WL is depleted in the 1st game, hard to fight back from a 9 point deficit.

WMC 18 : 9 WL

WMC @ game pt 20-11...

Semi-uncles managed to level, use all your experience guys!

WMC at game point 20 :11

WMC finally got her choo choo train started up, and went 5th gear

I hope she can achieve more in future....meanwhile she is now a point away from her QF berth...20-12.............

Okay 1st game to WMC. Hope she can maintain her momentum in the 2nd game...

"Semi" sound so lame... LOL
Though CCE is over 30, CCM is still in his late 20s i think.

Meanwhile, Chan/Chew lead 11-9 in the decider...

It's a common mistake. I used to be confused with thrash & trash.
Try this method as it works so me,
to thrash = to defeat thoroughly :D





He he, I still prefer the "mistake". You know... 'trash' = 'rubbish', like making opponent look like novice.

And I'm happy for KBH, he made an upset!



.
eaglehelang ...

:D:D:D Our English teacher robin7 will thrash his trash. :D:D:D

Would you believe if I have told you that KBH did it for his best friend, LCW?
.

"Semi" sound so lame... LOL
Though CCE is over 30, CCM is still in his late 20s i think.
Agreed. "Veterans" sounds much better.

Well..I am truly happy for KBH.His win over Boonsak this time surely will give him a lot of confident.He should start to forget all about the Thomas Cup 2006 and look toward future.I always this he is talented but after the Thomas Cup loss,he just declining and now hopefully this is a bright start for him.

Upset of the day should be the WS 1st seed Lady Pi being bundled out by unseeded Firdasari. Boonsak is just seeded 8 here;)

WMC is grooving, and she is playing more aggressively with a varieties nowadays, an even smashing more than she used to.

WL 4 : 2 WMC in early stage of 2nd game.

mew choo.... boleh...

Ah Ming Ah Eng lets lift up ur gear to finish the game !

"Semi" sound so lame... LOL
Though CCE is over 30, CCM is still in his late 20s i think.

Better than some ppl already calling them 'uncle'. Semi doesnt sound so old mah, means half uncle cateogry. :D
CCE =32. CCM = 28. Luluk/Alvent are between 27 to 29.

Both semi-uncle pairs toughing it out.

Chan/Chew 19-15 up. 2 pts away...

WMC woke up from a momentary slumber trailing 7 : 8 now. closing the gap.

Uncle Chan & Chew mean business...they are just a point away from securing the next round....20-15......

.
I think for Day 3, the Match of the Day will be at 7:30pm:

Alvent Yulianto CHANDRA (http://www.tournamentsoftware.com/sport/player.aspx?id=21955&player=104) / Luluk HADIYANTO (http://www.tournamentsoftware.com/sport/player.aspx?id=21955&player=103)http://www.tournamentsoftware.com/images/flags/INA.gif[INA] (http://www.tournamentsoftware.com/sport/players.aspx?id=21955&c=INA) vs http://www.tournamentsoftware.com/images/flags/MAS.gif[MAS] (http://www.tournamentsoftware.com/sport/players.aspx?id=21955&c=MAS)Chong Ming CHAN (http://www.tournamentsoftware.com/sport/player.aspx?id=21955&player=130) / Choon Eng CHEW (http://www.tournamentsoftware.com/sport/player.aspx?id=21955&player=129) .

.
.
Go Go Go ... Chan & Chew !!! :):):)
.

Another upset is on board... CCM/CCE at match point.

Upset of the day should be the WS 1st seed Lady Pi being bundled out by unseeded Firdasari. Boonsak is just seeded 8 here;)
Oh yes, I forgot abt that... But never mind...

Meanwhile, Chan/Chew @ match pt 20-15...

wow, this kuan beng hong ate wrong medicine is it???

Upset of the day should be the WS 1st seed Lady Pi being bundled out by unseeded Firdasari. Boonsak is just seeded 8 here;)

eaglehelang ...

Soon we could have Upset No.10: Tien Minh Nguyen to beat Chen Yu [7] ??? :confused::confused::confused:
.

Tien Minh, send 9 Chen Yu back home...

.
eaglehelang ...

Soon we could have Upset No.8: Tien Minh Nguyen to beat Chen Yu [7] ??? :confused::confused::confused:

That will be upset No. 10, from my count.

He he, if that happens, it would be no 10 or 11 already.

No 8 was KBH defeating Boonsak.
No 9 was CCM/CCE defeating Luluk/Alvent

Wow point to point... Mew Mew come on

neck to neck between WMC and WL... 7:5 in MC's favours

How you know ah, I mean this one 1st time Bin Shen/Khoo CK pair up. They're not permanent yet.
Thailand Open Khoo CHung Kiat pair with Chang Hun Pin I think.
Tan Bin shen "attitude" is better than his regular partner Ong Soon hock. Actually they got some kinda communication problem. Its just never getting any limelight as did Koo/Tan ....

The defending champion is sent packing, guessed he will be boarding an early flight to IO'08.

Great performance KBH!!!


Boonsak will not going to Indonesia Open SS 2008

Come on WMC, breakaway... take a hugh lead and let her do the chasing... 8 : 6 now

Boonsak will not going to Indonesia Open SS 2008

Is that so? Well, he came to Sg Open hoping to defend his title, too bad it ended early in the hands of the unheralded KBH.

I think WMC is starting to roll again, leading 11:7 at interval.

5 points away from a quarterfinal berth for WMC 16 : 13

Nguyen is destroying Chen Yu in the first game 19 : 14

WMC 17 : 14 WL

C'mon, WMC... 4 more pts...

I think WMC is starting to roll again, leading 11:7 at interval.

Go Go Go WMC !!! :):):)
.

1st game to Nguyen 21 : 15

WMC 18 : 15 WL

Tien Minh took the 1st game 21-15...

Tien Minh from vietnam is starting to shine lately. I expect him to be within top 15 in the next year. Impressive if he beats chen yu

18-14 to WMC and Chen Yu lost first game to Viet

2 more point WMC... win it girl!!!

:D:D
Upset no 10, MD, Taiwan's Tsai/Chen defeated Sakamoto/Ikeda (7th seed).

Looks like Sakamoto/Ikeda havent recovered from the losts in TC. That leaves only 2 more seeded MD pairs. Yikes, one by one seeded pairs fall.

phew wmc won. wang lin is not an easy opponent. well done wmc. mas boleh. did u all remember to count xing aiying beating tracey hallem (7th seed) as an upset too. many upsets in this SO.haha

Hiyaa, forgot abt WS in the excitement of KBH's win, he he. That should have been no 9, never mind, in order no confusion :

Upset no 11 : WS, Spore's Xing Ai Ying defeated England's Tracey Hallem (7th seed)

Looks like no INA MD who progress into last eight tomorrow after Rian/Yoke and Alvent/Luluk lost to MAS pairs. Last hope, it's hard for Bona/Ahsan to beat the Chinese Guo/Xie.

Half the leg into Quarterfinal for MAS 5th MD, wow, so many slots outta 8, that's amazing.

ya...kak...i am so happy tonight...malaysia progress many to quater...

meanwhile Nguyen on the way to making upset no 12

Nguyen is also on his way to the quarterfinals if he keeps up with his good play this far leading 16 : 12

MAS MD will make that upset No. 13!!! LOL :p

Wow, congratulations to Tien Minh. He usually has problem closing the match while leading but today he had no issues.

Get ready for upset No.13!

2 more points, Khoo/Tan, sealed it!!!!

Tan Bin shen "attitude" is better than his regular partner Ong Soon hock. Actually they got some kinda communication problem. Its just never getting any limelight as did Koo/Tan ....

Wow, MAS MD booked 5 q/finals slots, what an achievement.

Phew! I thought it's going to be like CCM/CCE, letting slip 5 match pts till duece. COngrats to Bin Shen/CHung Kiat for making an upset!

Upset no 13 : MD, Msia's Tan Bin Shen/Khoo Chung Kiat defeated Ohtsuka/Masuda (8th seed)

Phew! I thought it's going to be like CCM/CCE, letting slip 5 match pts till duece. COngrats to Bin Shen/CHung Kiat for making an upset!

Upset no 13 : MD, Msia's Tan Bin Shen/Khoo Chung Kiat defeated Ohtsuka/Masuda (8th seed)

erm...can i ask something...is this inclded shintaro/sakamoto lost???

Yeah, Gan/Lin will be up against CCM/CCE tomm. Since they spar together & know each other's game, could go either way.

Razif/Wee Kiong looks like will play Guo/Xie. Not easy but if they keep mentally strong, can give good fight.

Fuzzy pair will be up against Bin Shen/Chung Kiat. Bin Shen definetely knows Fuzzy's game. Just depends who plays better.
The winner will meet either Korea's Cho/Yoo or Taiwan's Tsai/Chen. I think would be Taiwan MD, they've beaten a number of top pairs.

erm...can i ask something...is this inclded shintaro/sakamoto lost???
yes, that was no 11 :D:p

ahsan / bona is hunting the last upset today...gambateh...

yes, that was no 11 :D:p

Upset no 8 : MS, KBH defeated Thailand’s Boonsak Ponsana (8th seed)
Upset no 9 : WS, Spore's Xing Ai Ying defeated England's Tracey Hallem (7th seed)

Upset no 11, MD, Taiwan's Tsai/Chen defeated Sakamoto/Ikeda (7th seed).
Upset no 12 : MS, Vietnam's Nguyen defeated China's Chen Yu (7th seed)
Upset no 13 : MD, Msia's Tan Bin Shen/Khoo Chung Kiat defeated Ohtsuka/Masuda (8th seed)

Interestingly, Guo/Xie the only seeded MD left, with 3 seeded pairs withdrawn, the rest lost.

Because there is no indonesian player in MD, I hope my neighbour country Malaysia win this title...:)

Most of the matches were quite decent except CY vs Vietnam guy and KBH vs Boonsak. Nothing spectacular but hats off to KBH and Viet guy for their fighting spirits... keep it ya guys... :)
