Can't see it happening myself. After yesterday's excitement, LD and XXF will tighten up and finish the job properly.

Today's first result, INA WD Nadya/Devi Tika overcome MAS pair Lim/Ng, 21-15 ; 21-13.

Hey, there are 2 Imabeppus... twice the cuteness, hehe :D:D
IMABEPPU, Kaori and IMABEPPU, Yasuyo. Sisters?

Well done to our young pair of Shinta Mulia SARI and YAO Lei who defeated the experienced and 7th seeded Indian pair of Jwala GUTTA and Shruti KURIAN
21-17, 15-21, 21-10 in 43 min. :)

Xie can be beaten, ...but not by Aprillia!!! :o :p :D

Nitya-Lita stretched the #1 seed until 22-24 in the 2nd game. Not bad. Nitya is good! As powerful as the Chinese players! One day Nitya-Greysia will be an awesome combo. Maybe next year we shall see this...

Nadya-Devi, Mel-Shendy have cleared their first opponent. Now waiting for Yulianti-Natalia... it seems that the Malaysian pair is killing them with smashes [17 smash winners] while Yulianti-Natalia are getting a lot of points from the net [19 net winners].

And what is happening with Rani-Endang... They should not loose to the Singaporean pair!

Still about 2.5 hours to go before the start of WS and PAWs

come on Wah ! U can do better than Ong SH/HTH !

Interesting stat from Du/Yu v Chong/Woon match:
G1 won 21-8 by Du/Yu: Smash winners 12-2!
G2 Du/Yu 17-17 Chong/Woon: Smash winners 8-8

Hmm, INA MD Fernando/Lingga Lie down to Chinese top-seed Cai/Fu, 14-21 ; 11-21 in quite short duration 23 mins.

wow ! 19-21, 21-19 wonder the third set will be the same score too....

No Koreans in the TO, so have to hit on other cute girls. Don't actually know if they're cute or not but the name sure sound it. Some pics would help... anyone, Chris? ;):D

Chris the sleuth uncovers another one! Thanks. :):) Any idea if the two Imabeppus are related. Doesn't seem like a very common name.

any info and pics on mizuki fujii and reika kakiwaa?

Bona/Ahsan won, 21-19 19-21 21-19!
Wow, now that's what I call by 'close match'!

WoW, Bona/Ahsan eliminate Lim Khim Wah/Tan Bin Shen with rubber games and same scoreline, 21-19 ; 19-21 ; 21-19.

any info and pics on mizuki fujii and reika kakiwaa?
..if they took any pics of them...my gut feeling says, those 2 plus Yasuyo Imabeppu most likely played in tourneys in those countries.. :cool:
Mizuki Fujii, if not mistaken, was part of JPN's 2007 Sudirman Cup team. No clue on R. Kakikawa.

Quite comforting indeed, after almost all MAS MS were wiped out yesterday (save Bang Yoyo), rite?:)
The good thing is that they (MAS MD pairs) do not have to face each other in the last 16 but I only expect 2 pairs to make it to QF. Let's see.

Wow, XAY is a fighter...

Alam is quite sumthing. Trailing far behind, and suddenly he levelled it up, and win 1st set!

Meanwhile, Rendra/Meiliana lost 1st set, 10-21...

Bang Yoyo is trailing 14-16!
Will it be an upset?!

KEEP IT UP AIYING!

After narrowly avoided defeat in the 1st set, Bang Yoyo again trailing 5-8 in the 2nd set!

CYK beats Andre and most PAWers go down with him

How many people are there who PAW Bang Yoyo?

rubber set for Mr Yoyo

Yo Yo lost 2nd set quite meekly. 16-21. Never lead!
What a shame...

What a shame...
immune to shame already

CYK beats Andre and most PAWers go down with him

All part of the curse ;). 1 PAW, 1 Loss ... PAW2 coming up shortly :D.

Poor Helle, she must be very tired tonight after playing 3 match a day...

Btw, I know it's mentioned before, but what does (CJ) stand for ? It's beside the Indonesia WD Yulianti's name.

YES....YOYO is gone...BIG 28 points....hehe

Yeah, looks like fun, but the list looks complicated. Maybe both of us should try one day. :D

Hafiz, <Sigh>, seed no 4 fallen. 5th upset of the day. With so many seeds in MS, more complicated than SS, end of the day only count total.

holy cow... Yoyo running out of gas in 3rd game... again? :eek: Why dun Misbun send him for marathon training first? :rolleyes: Pathetic Mr.Yoyo... Mr.NoGas :p

I think Mr Yoyo had run out by mid 2nd set after the tussle in the 1st game
Mr. Yoyo pictured him better than Mr. Nogas

yo yo should stop playing badminton
full time become police better...
waste tax payer money....

Come on Sook chin :)
Time to exact sweet revenge over ur loss to the European pair in INA SS

Go Hu Yun.. give another upset... :D:D:D

Had not been online for a couple of days, so, missed to PAW for this event :mad:

As always, the Thailand Open is not friendly to the INA squad, so, expect no INA players to last beyond QF, except maybe for a couple of them.

The 4 Pelatnas XD pairs were all wiped out yesterday. The Djarum pair, Fran Kurniawan/Shendy Puspa Irawati also lost to Rasmus Bonde/Helle Nielsen. The other pair, Rendra Wijaya/Meiliana Jauhari lasted till today before they got beaten in R16 by the top-seed He Hanbin/Yu Yang (as expected).

In the MS, only Alamsyah Yunus progresses to the QF, after he beat Tommy Sugiarto in rubber-set today. Andre Kurniawan Tedjono lost to Chan Yan Kit in straight-sets. Alam will face Hu Yun tomorrow.

In the WS, Maria Elfira Christina continues her good run as she reaches the QF by beating Fu Mingtian in rubber-set. She is expected the second-seed Lu Lan tomorrow. Aprillia Yuswandari did well in reaching R16. Maria Febe Kusumastuti and Fransisca Ratnasari lost in R32 yesterday.

In the MD, the Pelatnas back-up pair Bona Septano/Mohd Ahsan reaches R16 (which is my expecation of them). They will face the top-seed Fu Haifeng/Cai Yun tonight, so, just enjoy the experience! Fu/Cai themselves beat Fernando Kurniawan/Lingga Lie in R32 this morning.

Rian Sukmawan/Yonathan Suryatama Dasuki did well in beating the Thai pair in their first match today. A tricky tie against a Chinese-Taipei pair Liao Min-Chun/Wang Chia-Min awaits later. The Djarum pair Rendra Wijaya/Fran Kurniawan also progresses to R16 and will face a tough match against Songphon Anugritayawon/Tesana Panvisvas later.

In the WD, only Meiliana Jauhari/Shendy Puspa Irawati and Nadya Melati/Devi Tika Permatasari progress to R16 later tonight. Nadya/Devi will face the top-seed Yang Wei/Zhang Jiewen. while Mel/Shendy will have a winnable tie against Vivian Ho Kah Mun/Ng Hui Lin. The Malaysian youngsters themselves beat Nathalia Poluakan/Yulianti in 3 close-sets.

Rani Mundiasti/Endang Nursugianti continued their poor form as they lost in the first round to Frances Liu Fan/Vanessa Neo Yu Yan. Nitya Krishinda/Lita Nurlita also lost to Yang Wei/Zhang Jiewen.

In the MS, only Alamsyah Yunus progresses to the QF, after he beat Tommy Sugiarto in rubber-set today. Andre Kurniawan Tedjono lost to Chan Yan Kit in straight-sets. Alam will face Hu Yun tomorrow.

Hu Yun lost today ;)...

malaysia boleh...

Wah, how did Vivian/Hui Lin get from trailing 1st set to winning it.... Go gals.

And WPT have to play 3 matches tdy, 2 WD & 1 XD. Hope she will have the stamina in this 3rd game

CEH/WPT leading 9-2 nw

CEH/WPT leading 11-2 nw

More exiciting is our Vivian & Hui LIn against the young Indonesia WD , 19-16 in rubber

match pt for CEH/WPT 20-6

CEH/WPT won 21-7 in 2nd set

too bad, Vivian/Hui LIn lost, they managed to level till 15-all in rubber.

In the MS, only Alamsyah Yunus progresses to the QF, after he beat Tommy Sugiarto in rubber-set today. Andre Kurniawan Tedjono lost to Chan Yan Kit in straight-sets. Alam will face Hu Yun tomorrow.

Alam will meet Germany Marc Zwiebler at last eight, he has good prospect to enter semifinal and likely to take on top-seed LD. Meanwhile Maria Elfira, it seems hard chance to stop Lu Lan tomorrow.

cmon Kido's brother make upset pls....against Fu/Cai

its a very easy game for the 1st seed from china.in the 1st set:rolleyes:
now 2nd set leading 15-13.;)

And.... the no 1 seed won against the young Indonesia MD

the chinese wins the game after an easy 2 sets win and advance to the quater final.

yess!!! OSH/HTH wins the 1st set.:)

An expected loss from Bona/Ahsan against the top-seed Fu Haifeng/Cai Yun. More experience against top-pairs are needed for Bona/Ahsan.

hope malaysia win all their md game...

Rian Sukmawan/Yonathan Suryatama Dasuki have beaten the Chinese-Taipei pair in rubber-set. They will meet either Gan Teik Chai/Lin Woon Fui or Mathias Boe/Carsten Mogensen in the QF tomorrow.

why so quiet 2day???
very less people here:(

So, Pelatnas will have 2 representatives in the QF tomorrow: Alamsyah Yunus in the Men's Singles and Rian Sukmawan/Yonathan Suryatama Dasuki in the Men's Doubles.

Team Djarum will also have 2 representatives: Maria Elfira Christina in the Women's Singles and Meiliana Jauhari/Shendy Puspa Irawati in the Women's Doubles.

It will be a bonus if either player/pair can win their matches and progress to the Semi-Final.

Msia's BJSS MD juniors Goh/Ong no match for Guo/Xie, trailing far behind in 2nd set.
The semi-uncles pulling away to a straight set win against the England MD

I'm here just watching u guys. But still less interest. Good job for INA juniors!

CCM/CCE & GUo/Xie had a straight set win over their opponents to meet tomm in QF for a repeat of India Open finals.

Gan/Lin vs Boe/Mogensen looks like will drag to 3rd set

why so quiet 2day???
very less people here:(

busy playing game...

yess!!! our semi uncle made it through the quater final:)

camon gan teik chai/lin woon fui!!!!!!!!

give boe/morgensen a malaysian nightmare...they lost to malaysia in two ss liao...correct me if i am wrong...

Quite intense there in the rubber Gan/Lin vs Boe/Morgensen, level, then behind 2 pts, level again...

Upsets for 26 June matches :
1) WD: Spore Sari/Yao beat India Gutta/Kurian (7th seed)
2) MD : Msia's Hoon/Ong beat Japan's Keishi/Naoki (7th seed)
3) WD : Spore's Liu/Neo beat Indonesia's Rani/ENdang (6th seed)
4) WS : Spore's Xing Aiying beat HK's Zhou Mi (4th seed)
