The 65th All Japan Badminton Championship

[suetyan]

The 65th All Japan Badminton Championship will be held from 6 to 11 December 2011. All the top japanese players are playing in this tournament.

These are some upsets:

Kento Momota bt Jun Takemura 18-21, 21-16, 21-13 (R16)

Sho Zeniya bt Kazushi Yamada 15-21, 21-17, 21-13 (R32)

Mayu Sekiya bt Misaki Matsutomo 21-19, 21-15 (R16)
- I know this one can't be considered as an upset as Mayu is quite a good WS player and Misaki is now concentrating in WD instead of WS. But, this is just for the information of Misaki's fans.

Yu Hirayama bt Akane Kurihara 21-9, 21-15 (R16)
- The senior showed her power to the junior.

Yui Hashimoto bt Sayaka Takahashi 21-15, 21-13 (R32)

Nozomi Okuhara bt Shizuka Uchida 22-20, 21-10 (R16)

Mai Hattori/Yukari Jin bt Miri Ichimaru/Shino Tanaka 24-22, 19-21, 21-18 (R32)

Thanks for the results suetyan.

I believe that either Mitani or Nozomi will win the Womens Singles title.

But I think Ai Goto has a chance to win this year. She performed very well lately compared to Eriko Hirose.
