Greetings,

Not much news from the French Open SS 2008 - Day 1 (Tuesday October 28), except that Ai Goto, who played well at the Denmark Open SS 2008 last week, has continued her good form to enter into the Main WS Draw.

Today, Day 2, NIELSEN Joachim Fischer/PEDERSEN Christinna, who also played well at the Denmark Open SS 2008 last week, will receive a Walkover. And we shall be looking forward to see how well LCW, XXF, WMC, etc..., who all missed the Denmark Open SS 2008 last week, can perform today.

I thought XXF has withdrawn.

:eek: Lee Chong Wei gave Arvind Bhat a lesson 21-3 in the 2nd game..

Firda picks 5 pts in a row after the break!!! 13-11

So, how about flandy&firda's score? I'm not using PC, so cant see the live score. Tx anyway!

My 1st PAW on court, Anna Rice vs Linda Zechiri.

Flandy/Greysia down 5-7, Firda 14-14.

Hehehe...., because there are so many fans of him here.... :D


Btw, Firda, win the 1st set pls!!! SEMANGAT!!

Flaysia still trailing now :(

Flandy/Greysia in trouble, 6-10.
Lu Lan and Firda fight pt for pt, 16-16

If Firda wins this 1st game, she can really spook Lu Lan. 17-16.

My 1st PAW on court, Anna Rice vs Linda Zechiri.
C O M E ~ O N ~ L I N D A !

Firda, semangat!! win it!!

17-18

argh, 18-19 now, level it Firda!!

Lu Lan saves gamepoint!!

Flandy/Greysia come on...
Firda U 2....
good job so far....

20-20 now!! Firda, semangat!!!

Seems like indonesian girls have find the way to beat LU Lan.Maybe they learned something from ZHOU Mi.:D:eek:

Firda saved it too.... 21-21

Hope Firda can make miracle today.....

Firda saves gamept, 21-21!!!

Flandy/Greysia pegged behind 10-15.

Lu Lan gets the upperhand, 23-21. Great fight from Firda, hope she can maintain the battle in 2nd game.

win it Firda.....
keep Maria spirit in OG firda!!!!!!

Hikz, Lu Lan won it 23-21.... :crying:

Hope Firda can win the 2nd set.. But at least Firda scored more than Zhu Lin last week :D

Phew, Lu Lan took the 1st game 23-21 after fighting neck-to-neck from 13-all to 21-all. :eek:

Firda go go!!!!!!......
maintain ur performances like at 1st set

Is there an injury in Flandy/Greysia game? The score hasn't moved for ages now ....

go for rubber firda!!!!!!!!!!

:(Well, this is typical. Neck-to-neck for most of the game, but the more experienced /accomplished player (Lulan) pulls through in the end.

IMO, Chinese WS players now are not unbeatable and unreachable as their seniors were...

CHN no longer the WS powerfull team in the world nw....
the only thing is not to worried about them, make ur self confidence....
hw about INA XD match????

Firda is leading 9 to 5. Flaysia still trailing 16-19

Firda is moving away, 9-5.

Firda leading 11-6 at interval...

Flaysia 17-20

Flandy and Greysia bite the dust, 21-18, 18-21, 17-21. A marathon 57 minute match

wow firda lead.......
c'mon
Flaysia going to fly............
hahaa

Disappointing performance from Flandy/Greysia..
Firda, in the meantime, is widening the gap. Hopefully she can take this game and eventually the match.

really sad flandy greysia loose their match..

1 INA squad away from this tourney already, hopefully it's not the bad start for INA squad...

I think PBSI should pair Greysia with younger guy. IMO Flandi is almost unable to smash anymore....

Btw, Firda leading 14-9, hope she will win this set!

Lu Lan chasing back, 12-14.

Firda should concentrate.... 15-14 now

Lu Lan levels, 15-15

and now Lu Lan leads 16-15 :(

ai yo...........
firda c'mon make it rubber

hopefully firda doesn't be 2nd INA away from this SS today.....

Lu Lan is always like this (at least w/ MKY), neck to neck battle or left behind, but eventually she wins. Or it's just INA's mental not as strong as LuLan

I think INA mental not too strong......

Lu Lan wins 23-21, 21-17.

OMG, 4 game pts saved by Anna...

Damn it, Anna took the 1st game 23-21.

2 INA's gone already..........

Lu Lan is always like this (at least w/ MKY), neck to neck battle or left behind, but eventually she wins. Or it's just INA's mental not as strong as LuLan

Yup, they always afraid and think that they will be lost. I think INA girls are not realize that as a group, INA girls are the only players who are able to beat CHN players, or at least be obstacles for them.

Other countries usually only has 1 player who is strong at WS. INA at least has 4 (Maria, Firda, Pia, and Nana) quiet strong players

:D

I thought Nana (Brosolat Jensen) was from Denmark?:D

ya, they lost before the match end......
this habit must be change in the future
i think PBS should have psycho log like they have in OG

Is Maria playing now?

It is good to see LCW back up to form ! Prediction : He will win the tournament with a foot in the air ! :)

I think only Maria can be considered strong as of today. Others have yet proven themselves. They are not even at the level of Wang Chen, Huaiwen, Zhou Mi, yet the CHN players.

Yup, Maria will play as Adcock/Middleton have won their match....

Linda will win 2nd set, good for my PAW :D

It is good to see LCW back up to form ! Prediction : He will win the tournament with a foot in the air ! :)
Welcome back Mr LEE-Xball;)

Linda shoud have won in straight sets...

I think only Maria can be considered strong as of today. Others have yet proven themselves. They are not even at the level of Wang Chen, Huaiwen, Zhou Mi, yet the CHN players.

Yup, that's why I used the word quiet strong :)

They have not proven yet, but at least they can give tight match while agains CHN players. We can see Firda few moments ago, and Nana while facing Lu Lan at Macau Open. At least they were not defeated easily.

I think Zhou Mi and Tine R. are strong contenders for CHN players now....

Now ZHU Lin against maria!!

Welcome back Mr LEE-Xball;)

Thanks - but disappearing now -- too much work.

Go LCW !

Cheers.

not yet i think.......

maria, cai yo! 9-6 now

9-5, but Maria must consistent, and we won't the "tragedy" against Lu Lan happen again tonight!

oh, it's 5-8 now still for Maria!!!Go get it MKY!

maria lead at interval break..11-6

Yup, still not sure although Maria's leading. Two times Lu Lan reversed the lead

hua...can't access livescore...

updating plz....:):)

ya, they lost before the match end......
this habit must be change in the future
i think PBS should have psycho log like they have in OG

psycho log?what u mean? psychologist?

12-8, hore! hore!

Okay....let's see if Maria can finish Zhu Lin off.

14-10 now, come on Maria! dont stop to drink extrajos

9-5, but Maria must consistent, and we won't the "tragedy" against Lu Lan happen again tonight!

I dont't think that's gonna happened to Maria. Coz, I think she knows what to do and she has good mental condition already. so just keep it up girl

15-11, u can Maria!

ZHU Lin,come on!!!another three points!!

Yup, still not sure although Maria's leading. Two times Lu Lan reversed the lead

Yup2, Lu Lan were able to reverse the lead so many times... but I hope Zhu Lin is unable to do that :D

16-13, Maria Win! hore!

come on maria...
wish this will end straight set...
don't waste your chance...
INDONESIA BISA

come on Maria...!!!!!!

MKY is not the queen of 3 sets..:):D.. at least with ZL

hehe... good job Maria!! :)

cool...Maria did her revenge really nice....straight set 21-15 and 21-14 from Zhu Lin..
That's great for her mentally. Hope she can do her best in this tournament though...
coz, this gonna be the last tournament where Indonesia can participate during this 2008 right...so it will nice if MKY can get a trophy in this tournament....

Yes,, Maria win...
I also not believe Maria can win over Zhu Lin so easily...
:D :D

And now,, cmon Devin/Lita and Sony...

Good job Maria, I will vote for u then!

Okay, Zhu Lin is off... Tomorrow Maria will meet Lu Lan again yah??

:D:D:D

tomorrow Lulan will meet the winner from Pia Zebadiah vs eriko Hirose..
I hope Pia can beat Eriko , eventhough I know that's not gonna be an easy game for her..that's gonna be really exciting to watch Pia vs Lu Lan:D:D

yess..

devin lita took the 1st set 21-18

Good job Maria, I will vote for u then!

haha you mean vote for her on Global TV huh? I think that's a great idea..
I will follow you then..:D

13-7 for Sony dwi Kuncoro this time , yeah....

Maria Kristin Yulianti finally manages to beat Zhu Lin in straight-sets. I am afraid Zhu Lin's career is over now.

7-4 for Devin/Lita in 2nd game...hope they can win straight sets too

Maria Kristin Yulianti finally manages to beat Zhu Lin in straight-sets. I am afraid Zhu Lin's career is over now.

I think Zhu Lin is still young and has a long way into that step.
She still has years to come though..
But, yeah for now, Lu lan is much better that Zhu Lin

sony wins the 1st game 21-15

Maria Kristin Yulianti finally manages to beat Zhu Lin in straight-sets. I am afraid Zhu Lin's career is over now.

Yeah, I guess so. I think LYB has the rising star of China, Wang Lin to replace her. Probably Zhu Lin just pretend, then she can move to Hong Kong and join with Zhou Mi since Wang Chen will be retired soon.

Maria Kristin Yulianti finally manages to beat Zhu Lin in straight-sets. I am afraid Zhu Lin's career is over now.

Off to Hong Kong, perhaps?

Devin/Lita finally win over Adcock/Gabrielle 21-18 21-19 after easy opening in the first set.

Yeah, I guess so. I think LYB has the rising star of China, Wang Lin to replace her. Probably Zhu Lin just pretend, then she can move to Hong Kong and join with Zhou Mi since Wang Chen will be retired soon.

ya ya...sounds good...hehe..

pretend can't play good now and beat these CHN young player when she play for another country..hehe...:p:p

joking lah..:D:D

ZHU Lin can still do well in future.WANG Lin just did it.She won her first main tournament's title in 2006.After that WANG Lin defeated by others in the first round or second round many times.Now she shine again.So,your next goal must be London 2012!!come on!!!

Sony trails 13-18 now..........

Hmph...looks like rubber game for Sony..........

What happen to SDK???? 13-18

waa... 19-13 for mikkelsen...come on sony......

Sony was pushed to rubber.

As usual, ZM started slow.

Sony leads 3-1 in 3rd..........

Yu v Nana 19-17 3rd..........

wow 19all Yu v Nana

what happened to ZM.......

MP for Nana Brosolat and she took it.what a tense......2mrow agaisnt MKY.....

Nanna upset Hirayama...

Nanna wins!

what happened to ZM.......
Trailing behind...
Still to early to say. 1st game.
Aditi herself is a tough player, as well.

Sony leads 11-7 interval..............

MP for Nana Brosolat and she took it.what a tense......2mrow agaisnt MKY.....

I hope tomorrow will be the end of journey for Nanna Jensen

Hmm,, but I still guess there's something with Sony... Maybe he's injured...

Hmm,, but I still guess there's something with Sony... Maybe he's injured...
i hope not..........maybe Mikkelsen is just playing well 2night.................

4 pts to go to Sony.......

Match point for Sony...

Oh, hell! Peter got 5 points!

Luckily Sony could kill the game: 21-19.

finally sony win 21-15,14-21 and 21-19 what a tight rubber game!

i hope not..........maybe Mikkelsen is just playing well 2night.................
I hope so,,
I just guess based on his performance at Denmark SS too...
He's defeated by Chetand Anand,, but Anand's defeated so easily by Persson...

Lucky Sony... if he lost one more point it could have been a different story, I wonder why he's been having so much trouble lately?

i hope not..........maybe Mikkelsen is just playing well 2night.................

Sony win but not convincingly, phew.... it is really close after lead 20-15, Mikkelsen close it up to 20-19....

finally sony win 21-15,14-21 and 21-19 what a tight rubber game!
not convincing victory from Sony..........:o

Lucky Sony... if he lost one more point it could have been a different story, I wonder why he's been having so much trouble lately?
im wondering too.after 2 straight SS tittle in Jpn and Chn.looks like his performance little bit erratic..........

ZM bounces back in 2nd set. 19-11 now.
Who's the boss now?

ZM bounces back in 2nd set. 19-11 now.
