2012 Swiss Open GP Gold: Qualifications to Quarter-Finals matches

[madbad]

The aggression of DL is unbelievable. Even CJ can't reach all his shots. 20-20

Eriko Hirose, I used to have a soft spot for her. You mean she is not in the running for London OG, I'm surprised, thought she is still the Japanese No.1, but way below the WR top 16, that's why?

she has fallen behind both Sayako and Ai in the qualification ranking, trailing the 16th by 5000 points. from her performance so far, it doesn't look like there will be a breakthrough from her.

CJ drives wide. DL 21-20

Chen Jin done it!

My eyelids are heavy, the bed is a-calling, goodnight folks.

[kwun]

well. he scraped through. Chen Jin beats Darren Liew 21-8 / 23-21.

Terrific net play by CJ. CJ 22-21

CJ smashes a poor lift and Daren is finally vanquished. 23-21.

I like what I've seen from Daren. Really gave CJ a good fight in G2. I think he looked overcome by the occasion and gave CJ too much respect in G1.

aye. don't mention the Japanese. breaks my heart that it looks like we won't see Eriko and Miyuki/Satoko in London.

Er, since when have you become a Japanophilie .

YAAAYYY, Chen Jin Vs Taufik hidayat tomorrow, hopefully Taufik can beat Chen Jin just like last week. Taufik is still awesome

It is all about preparation with this high standard battle between TH and CJ. I think TH gave CJ a surprise with his current form last week. I think Chen Jin will do a better preparation this time and has better chance to win if he plays his normal game. It is quite hard for TH to beat CJ two in a row. Let wait and see.

I think this is what she want to do. Swiss open looks like a pass/fail test for WSX alone. All the top Chinese WS players either didn't attend or withdrew from the games. This left WSX to battle alone with the top non chinese players. It is cruel but I think it is essential to see how WSX response to these challenges...

Yup. Don't think anyone will get close to beating her this week.

Towi/Butet should win handily.
