I will probably be missing all the matches since I am flying back to SUB. So, I will probably rely on sms updates from Krisna once I landed :D

Men's Singles
Kenichi Tago vs Simon Santoso [8] -- another good week for Simon if he can beat Tago tomorrow. He should have the edge.

Sony Dwi Kuncoro [4] vs Bao Chunlai [2] -- I can't see Sony beating the second-seed, esp when the Chinese player is hot with the local teens :D

Women's Singles
Maria Kristin Yulianti vs Zhang Ning [2] -- what a result for Maria this week...SF finish in a SS event. Can she go further tomorrow? I hope she can prove me wrong again :cool:

Men's Doubles
Tony Gunawan/Candra Wijaya [5] vs Hoon Thien How/Ong Soon Hock -- the veteran pair could win the title here, after beating the World Champions today. It will be a tricky match tomorrow, but, I think Tony/Candra should have the edge.

Women's Doubles
Wei Yili/Zhang Yawen [1] vs Vita Marissa/Liliyana Natsir [4] -- another SS finish for Vita/Butet should consolidate their ranking for a top 8 seeding. Can they beat the top-seed? Hmm.....

Satoko Suetsuna/Miyuki Maeda [3] vs Meiliana Jauhari/Shendy Puspa Irawati -- what a tournament for Mel/Shendy...I have a feeling they might go all the way now...

Mixed Doubles
Nova Widianto/Liliyana Natsir [1] vs Thomas Laybourn/Kamilla Rytter-Juhl [4] -- another match vs the old-nemesis. Nova/Butet have not been beaten by the Danes this year. I hope the record continues...

Flandy Limpele/Vita Marissa [3] vs Zheng Bo/Gao Ling [2] -- this should be a cracking match and I hope Flandy/Vita can win to set up an all-INA Final. However, Zheng/Gao have the slight edge.

Agreed with most of the prediction, except Flandy/Vita will take down ZB/GL and the Djarum pair will falls to the JPN ladies. The XD is scheduled ahead of the WD so Vita should be fresh, and ZB/GL hasn't been themselves lately. Mel/Shendy is performing beyond any expectation, but the JPN pair should proved too strong to handle (I think they're actually stronger than the JPN cuties).

It would have bee nice if we can afford having Vita/Butet concentrate full time on WD. They should be one of the world's best and a threat to China's Great Wall of WDs along with the KOR pair.

Men's Singles
Sony Dwi Kuncoro [4] vs Bao Chunlai [2]
This INA SS is a good chance for Sony to win his first SS title ...so he must beat Bao Chunlai to meet Simon in Final..

Women's Singles
Maria Kristin Yulianti vs Zhang Ning [2]
I know it`s not easy for Maria to beat Zhang Ning but I just hope she can prove your prediction is wrong again...:D

Women's Doubles
Wei Yili/Zhang Yawen [1] vs Vita Marissa/Liliyana Natsir [4]
Another upset will come true in this WD match...:D

Krisna
06-20-2008, 02:17 PM
I think the Mel-Shendy will fight for 3 games against the Japanese pair... 50% chance of winning. These 2 pairs are very evenly matched...

Zheng-Gao had a very easy time today. Fran made SIX net service errors on his own... So Zheng-Gao are very VERY fresh for their match against Flandy-Vita...

Considering the form they're in right now, I doubt the KOR junior pair can stop the Fuzzy's onslaught ;).

Pi Hongyan has been forced to play back-to-back-to-back rubber.... while ZL is relatively fresh (despite losing 1st set to Wang Chen). ZL would take it in straight sets.

i dont' think that the double task of Vita/Lilyana (play in WD n XD) is good for them... they will never make it,,,, success in both... in the end, they have to choose whether focus in XD or WD,,,, Singapore Open had proved it.... INA pairs is weak in stamina...
poor ViLy... especially for Vita Today.... face Gao/Zheng (n0.1 seeds) and also Zang yawen/wei yili (also n0.1 seeds).... it will be tired day for her....
PBSI has to take attention on this if INA want to take Gold in Beijing...

21 is still "junior" by Msia standards. Some of Msia players at 21 are still in back-up squad. And definetely junior to Fuzzy, Fuzzy = 25.

HTH/OSH played brilliantly in IO matched! They have nothing to lose. Just give their best and don't give a damn to the crazy fanatic Indonesian fans. Why Indonesian boo our players? We have been kind and supportive to Indonesian players when they play in Malaysia. Especially to TH , Tony and Chandra. Even Vita Marrisa is quit popular in Malaysia.If that is the case next time they appear in Malaysian we will boo them and give them tough time.

Anyway, We fans will support Malaysian players all the way. Malaysian boys have good chance to win MD title.GO GO MALAYSIAN BOYS!

As Hau-ge commented at breakfast, HHY is pretty with very soft skin.

Met Simon and wished him well, and fastdrop showed me his latest "conquest", 2 extra mobile phones bought at the Great S'pore Sale. Making it a total of 4 phones.

06-20-2008, 11:40 PM
We (hau-ge and I) agree that Tony/Candra will have the upper hand against MAS's young guns. Thus we expect a repeat between them and Fuzzy pair in tomorrow's final.

Sony will find it tough, Simon can make it if his concentration doesn't waver, and Maria has a decent chance as long as she believes ZN is not invincible.

XD and WD I expect CHN vs INA finals.

The reason behind the surprised of MAS scatch pair :

1. They know it may not be a permanent pairing, thus no pressure

2. Most of the opponents they beat is not top pairs in the world.

3. They know nobody expecting anything from them, Win -- maybe send to more tournaments , lost -- back to old partner

HTH/OSH survived a seeded MD,hostile crowd,less-than-ideal umpire and another one-hour match.Excellent training!
HTH/OSH should relish the opportunity of playing the INA veterans and the whole Istora crowd against them.Such an experience is hard to come by, so they should treasure and look forward to it.Whatever the outcome,with the right attitude, they are going to be richer for it.
That's why IO is the best tournament training ground.

erm, if i am not mistaken... The Fuzzy pair beaten Tony-Chandra before right? once?

Yes, last year, also IO, at Semi Finals.

osh paired with tbs before, who is kcc? ccm? but ccm paired with hth to win the nz open md title last year

its not OSH/TBS its OSH/KCC

LOL, you guys are so cute. It's OSH/Hoon Thien How. TBS with Khoo Chung Chiat. Next week, will have more confusion as TBS will be with Lim Khim Wah.

The reason behind the surprised of MAS scatch pair :

2. Most of the opponents they beat is not top pairs in the world.

3. They know nobody expecting anything from them, Win -- maybe send to more tournaments , lost -- back to old partner

But they havent been able to beat these non top pairs before ;), at least not recently. TBS/OSH wouldnt be back together, if the Star article is anything to go by. If it doesnt work out, pair with other players, not with old partner.
