Indonesian Contingent: MS Alamsyah Yunus - top seed, expected to win here Shesar Hiren Rhustavito (top 16 seeds) Arif Gifar Ramadhan (ditto) Riyanto Subagja Wisnu Yuli Prasetyo Fauzi Adnan Andre Marteen Tene Panji Akbar Sudrajat Nathaniel Ernestan Sulistyo (Q) Erwin Rendrana Purnomo (Q) Dimas Kurniawan Trijayanto (Q) WS Belaetrix Manuputi Hera Desi Renna Suwarno Febby Angguni Dian Fitriani Yeni Asmarani Anggia Shitta Awanda (Q) Tria Ria Maya (Q) Leonila Josephine (Q) Tieke Arieda Ningrum (Q) Linda Agnes (Q) Ruselli Hartawan (Q) Mega Cahya Purnama Lestari (Q) Lya Ersalita (R) MD Berry Angriawan/Rahmat Adianto Andrei Adistia/Christopher Rusdianto Hafiz Faisal/Putra Eka Rhoma Andhika Anhar/Hendra Setyo Nugroho Nurwahid Ardianto/Mohd Solihuddin Allan (Q) Dimas Kurniawan Trijayanto/Edwin Rendana Purnomo (Q) Ronald Alexander/Selvanus Geh (Q) WD Shella Devi Aulia/Anggia Shitta Awanda Keshya Nurvita Hanadia/Devi Tika Permatasari Aris Budiharti/Dian Fitriani Ruselli Hartawan/Lya Ersalita XD Putra Eka Rhoma/Aris Budiharti Andhika Anhar/Keshya Nurvita Hanadia Hafiz Faisal/Shella Devi Aulia
last year, Gabby/Tiara was on final here. if this time they will not compete, I think ther WR will drop again.
Hope Bellaetrix can win the title here. It is also good to see Jaya Raya send some of their U-19 and U-17 players. Lets see what can the WJC runner up Shella/Anggia and Aris/Dian do here. Also good to see Ruselly Hartawan playing here, valuable experince for her. Hmmm, why Djarum rarely send Dinar to international tourney?
If can pass the earlier round both Shella/Anggia and Aris/Dian will face JPN pair in QF. Meanwhile, Bella is at the same half with Sayaka Takahasi, Chen Jiayuan and Renna Suwarno.
I hope Alamsyah Yunus can win the title here. He deserves at least 1 international title for his hard work this year! As for the others, it will be hard to win a title.
Jaya Raya is cash-rich now, they are now becoming more and more ambitious... Good to see 'em that way. Dinar..... is not a complete player. Good at some things, not so good at some other stuff...
Hope Jaya Raya will more often to send their junior player to international tourney. Do you think Dinar has potential to become successor of MKY? I like Dinar's style a lot, i think she will play in next year AJC and WJC
anyway, round 1 will start tomorrow.. From WS, i expect Bella,Renna,Hera and Yeni to through to next round. From MS, i expect Alamsyah,Panji Akbar, Andre Marteen, and Vito to through to next round. From MD, i expect Andrei/Christopher, Ronald/Selvanus, Hafiz/Putra to through. I think quite slim chance for INA to take the MD title here. From WD, i expect Shella/Anggia, Aris/Dian and Keshya/Devi to progress to next round. From XD, i expect Hafiz/Shella and Andhika/Keshya to progress to nest round. all the best to INA camp tomorrow
Alamsyah Yunus progresses to R32 after beating Pannawit Thongnuam 21-16, 21-18. His next opponent will be Lim Fang Yang. Other players playing today: MS Chu Han-Chou [11] vs Panji Akbar Sudrajat - bad draw for Panji Chong Wei Feng [4] vs Wisnu Yuli Prasetyo - ditto Andre Marteen vs Cheng Po-Wei Riyanto Subagja vs Robin Gonansa [8] - can Riyanto prove himself from now on that he has the capability to take on senior players? Beryno Wong Jiann Tze vs Arief Gifar Ramadhan [15] - Gifar might lose to the more experienced Beryno Wong Achmad Rivai vs Shesar Hiren Rhustavito [14] - I hope Vito will go through in this all-INA clash Adnan Fauzi vs Riichi Takeshita [10] WS Sekiya Mayu vs Febby Angguni Malvinne Ann Venice Alcala [4] vs Dian Fitriani Hera Desi [7] vs Hsu Ya-Ching - I believe the Taiwanese caused some problems for INA players in a few tourneys held in recent years Florah Ng Siew Fong vs Mega Cahya Purnama Lestari Le Thu Huyen vs Yeni Asmarani Cheng Chi-Ya vs Bellaetrix Manuputty [6] - Bella should win an IC tourney soon. She's not young anymore. Rena Suwarno vs Tieke Aireda Ningrum MD Mohd Lufti Zaim Abdul Khalid/Vountus Indra Mawan [1] vs Berry Angriawan/Rahmat Adianto Tan Wee Tat/Tan Yip Jiun vs Andrei Adistia/Christopher Rusdianto Andhika Anhar/Hendra Setyo Nugroho vs Takeshi Kamura/Keigo Sonoda [8] Adi Andrianus Prasoji/Mohd Asraf B. Ishak vs Ronald Alexander/Selvanus Geh Lin Chia-Hsuan/Chu Han-Chou vs Hafiz Faisal/Putra Eka Rhoma WD Adrina Aysha Anscelly/Amelia Alicia Anscelly vs Lya Ersalita/Ruselli Hartawan Shella Devi Aulia/Anggia Shitta Awanda vs Goh Yea Ching/Ho Yen Mei - the WJC runner-up this year is back in action! Keshya Nurvita Hanadia/Devi Tika Permatasari vs Chin Kah Mun/Yap Cheng Wen Yvonne Ong Jing Er/Soong Fie Cho vs Dian Fitriani/Aris Budiharti
Impressive, 16-year old Lim Chi Wing beat Huang Chao in straight games! Another 16-year old Soong Joo Vern also disposed of the 16th seed Sho Zeniya.
He did beat Chong Wei Feng here last year... 14 or 15-yr old Cheam June Wei managed to take Ramdan to 3 games...
Only Alamsyah Yunus, Riyanto Subagja, and Achmad Rivai advance to R32 so far. Riyanto will test the MAS veteran Kuan Beng Hong, while Rivai will face Lin Chia-Hsuan. Vito lost to Rivai in 3 tight-sets
