Let's begin the excitement, folks...

[badMania]

Many INA players involved in the Qualifying Rounds and I am interested in some matches:

MSQ
Evert Sukamta vs Shesar Hiren Rhustavito - if Vito can win this one, it will signal some progress for him and no progress for Evert.

Sai Praneeth B. vs Andre Kurniawan Tedjono - the Indian player has the edge as Andre usually faces problems against Asian opponents in Asian tourneys.

Anand Pawar vs Sony Dwi Kuncoro - 2 tourneys and 2 Finals including a title for Sony in the past 2 GPG events. I think he can qualify to the Main Draw.

WSQ
Lindaweni Fanetri vs Salakjit Ponsana - a tough opener for Lindaweni but if she can negotiate this one, I think she can progress to the Main Draw.

Xing Aiying [3] vs Renna Suwarno - Xing has the edge.

Febby Angguni vs Chen Jiayuan - Febby might be a serial Sirnas winner, but, I don't think she can beat the Singaporean player.

Busanan Ongbumrungpan vs Belaetrix Manuputty [4] - I don't think Bella can win this one, even in front of the home crowd.

Maziyyah Nadhir vs Lianne Tan - the Belgian has the edge.

Sashina Vignes Waran vs Aprilia Yuswandari [2] - looking at the Qualifying Draw, April has a chance to qualify.

MDQ - my favorite event and many of the pairs featured in the Qualifying Draws are in my close-watch list.

The Pelatnas pairs: Ade Yusuf Santoso/Wahyu Nayaka A.P. and Rahmat Adianto/Berry Angriawan [3] should advance to the Main Draw, which will give them valuable pts.

Chooi Kah Ming/Ow Yao Han vs Edi Subaktiar/Arya Maulana Aldiartama - a tough match for Edi/Arya and they should treat this as a learning experience in preparation for AJC.

Ronald Alexander/Selvanus Geh vs Robert Blair/Tan Bin Shen - it will be a great upset if the AJC & WJC 2011 Bronze-Medallist can beat the veteran scratch pair.

Kevin Sanjaya Sukamuljo/Rafiddias Akhdan Nugroho vs Hantoro/Arsya Isnanu Ardi Putra - Kevin/Rafi is my new favorite pair, with 3 titles in a row in the past 1 month. This match is a repeat of Sirnas Jakarta & last Saturday's Candra Wijaya MD Badminton Championships U-19 Finals (both won by Kevin/Rafi). It should be Kevin/Rafi's match to lose. I would like to see how Kevin/Rafi fare against either Ronald/Selvanus or Blair/Tan.

WDQ
Likely qualifiers: Melvira Oklamona/Khaeriah Rosmini, Febriani Endar Kusumawati/Ristya Ayu Nugraheny, and Pia Zebadiah Bernadeth/Rizky Amelia Pradipta [2].


XDQ
Edi Subaktiar/Melati Daeva Oktaviani, INA's main hope in the AJC at the end of June are promoted to the Main Draw. Ditto for Adi Pratama/Nadya Melati.

Markis Kido/Pia Zebadiah Bernadeth and Alfian Eko Prasetya/Gloria Emanuelle Widjaja should also qualify.

The last spot for the Main Draw will be a contest between 2 newly formed Pelatnas pairs:
Lukhi Apri Nugroho/Annisa Saufika vs Muhd Rizky Delynugraha/Sri Wulan Sari - Lukhi/Annisa have impressed in their debut performance last week in Thailand. I would like to see them progressing to the Main Draw.

Is Sony up yet? The badmintonlink feed for court 1 is frozen for me.
