SF will be played from 2pm local time. tournament website: http://www.macauopenbadminton.com/ tournament-software link: http://bwf.tournamentsoftware.com/s...25E261-B972-4592-BE2F-18069542FD0C&d=20121201 Macau time: http://www.worldtimeserver.com/current_time_in_MO.aspx
Predictions involving INA players: MD SF Vladimir Ivanov/Ivan Sozonov [1] vs Markis Kido/Alvent Yulianto Chandra [5] - Kido/Alvent can progress to the Final. WS SF Eom Hye Won/Jang Ye Na [1] vs Pia Zebadiah Bernadeth/Rizki Amelia Pradipta [4] - Pia/Rizki have fulfilled their seeding. The KOR pair has a slight edge. Choi Hye In/Kim So Young vs Komala Dewi/Jenna Gozali - this week marks the best result of Komala/Jenna's partnership. I still believe they will be split. XD SF Tontowi Ahmad/Liliyana Natsir [1] vs Tao Jiaming/Tang Jinhua - the only real test for Towi/Butet this week. They had beaten the CHN pair 2 weeks ago in Shanghai. Mohd Rijal/Debby Susanto [3] vs Riky Widianto/Richi Puspita Dili [6] - Riky/Richi have done well in beating Sudket/Saralee, a pair that Rijal/Debby has yet to beat. Can the younger pair upset the seniors?
for Choi Hye In/Kim So Young they're not really good I think, many time they lose to unseeded pair in Hongkong Open 2012 [TABLE="class: ruler matches"] [TR] [TD="align: right"][TABLE] [TR="bgcolor: transparent"] [TD="align: right"]Hye In Choi[/TD] [TD][/TD] [/TR] [TR="bgcolor: transparent"] [TD="align: right"]So Young Kim[/TD] [TD][/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] [/TD] [TD="align: center"]-[/TD] [TD][TABLE] [TR="bgcolor: transparent"] [TD][/TD] [TD]Vivian Kah Mun Hoo[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD][/TD] [TD]Khe Wei Woon[/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] [/TD] [TD]19-21 18-21[/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] In China Open 2012 [TABLE="class: ruler matches"] [TR] [TD="align: right"][TABLE] [TR="bgcolor: transparent"] [TD="align: right"]Hye In Choi[/TD] [TD][/TD] [/TR] [TR="bgcolor: transparent"] [TD="align: right"]So Young Kim[/TD] [TD][/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] [/TD] [TD="align: center"]-[/TD] [TD][TABLE] [TR="bgcolor: transparent"] [TD][/TD] [TD]Narissapat Lam[/TD] [/TR] [TR="bgcolor: transparent"] [TD][/TD] [TD]Saralee Thoungthongkam[/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] [/TD] [TD]15-21 21-19 16-21[/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] In Indonesia GPG 2012 [TABLE="class: ruler matches"] [TR] [TD="align: right"][TABLE] [TR="bgcolor: transparent"] [TD="align: right"]Hye In Choi[/TD] [TD][/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD="align: right"]So Young Kim[/TD] [TD][/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] [/TD] [TD="align: center"]-[/TD] [TD][TABLE] [TR="bgcolor: transparent"] [TD][/TD] [TD]Pia Zebadiah Bernadeth [6][/TD] [/TR] [TR="bgcolor: transparent"] [TD][/TD] [TD]Rizki Amelia Pradipta[/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] [/TD] [TD]17-21 13-21[/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] In Malaysia GPG 2012 [TABLE="class: ruler matches"] [TR] [TD="align: right"][TABLE] [TR="bgcolor: transparent"] [TD="align: right"]Hye In Choi[/TD] [TD][/TD] [/TR] [TR="bgcolor: transparent"] [TD="align: right"]So Young Kim[/TD] [TD][/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] [/TD] [TD="align: center"]-[/TD] [TD][TABLE] [TR="bgcolor: transparent"] [TD][/TD] [TD]Yonemoto Koharu[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD][/TD] [TD]Yuriko Miki[/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] [/TD] [TD]18-21 21-17 15-21[/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] In Australia GPG 2012 [TABLE="class: ruler matches"] [TR] [TD="align: right"][TABLE] [TR="bgcolor: transparent"] [TD="align: right"]Hye In Choi[/TD] [TD][/TD] [/TR] [TR="bgcolor: transparent"] [TD="align: right"]So Young Kim[/TD] [TD][/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] [/TD] [TD="align: center"]-[/TD] [TD][TABLE] [TR="bgcolor: transparent"] [TD][/TD] [TD]Anneke Feinya Agustin[/TD] [/TR] [TR="bgcolor: transparent"] [TD][/TD] [TD]Nitya Krishinda Maheswari[/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] [/TD] [TD]10-21 11-21[/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] In Swiss Open 2012 [TABLE="class: ruler matches"] [TR] [TD="align: right"][TABLE] [TR="bgcolor: transparent"] [TD="align: right"]Hye In Choi[/TD] [TD][/TD] [/TR] [TR="bgcolor: transparent"] [TD="align: right"]So Young Kim[/TD] [TD][/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] [/TD] [TD="align: center"]-[/TD] [TD][TABLE] [TR="bgcolor: transparent"] [TD][/TD] [TD]Eei Hui Chin[/TD] [/TR] [TR="bgcolor: transparent"] [TD][/TD] [TD]Pei Tty Wong[/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] [/TD] [TD]21-15 18-21 16-21[/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] In All England 2012 [TABLE="class: ruler matches"] [TR] [TD="align: right"][TABLE] [TR="bgcolor: transparent"] [TD="align: right"]Hye In Choi[/TD] [TD][/TD] [/TR] [TR="bgcolor: transparent"] [TD="align: right"]So Young Kim[/TD] [TD][/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] [/TD] [TD="align: center"]-[/TD] [TD][TABLE] [TR="bgcolor: transparent"] [TD][/TD] [TD]Pei Chen Hsieh[/TD] [/TR] [TR="bgcolor: transparent"] [TD][/TD] [TD]Pei Rong Wang[/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] [/TD] [TD]21-23 13-21[/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE]
Yeah they still maturing their game obviously, but so does Jenna/Komala, so I'm still not sure Korea WD still scrumbling after Ha Jung eun/Kim Min jung and Jung Kyung eun/Kim Ha Na (which I like) got suspended.... But they still have Eom/Jang and Choi/Kim and also one the youngest pair which really good with multiple winners of AJC and WJC which I forget...
choi is one of the best korean women double talent in many years. the nearest will be shin sheung chan.
I just wondered, Tao Jiaming is quite good XD player, it's pity that he hasnt found a partner that can match him Once it's Ma Jin but she stucks now with Xu Chen Before this Xia Huan and now Tang Jinhua. All are far less success... Speaking of Xia Huan where is she ??? Not in WD and XD after OG ??? Kicked out of CBA ??
Also wondering about Sun Yu Her previous win before SF are quite easy except for Firda, less than 15 points for else...many more less than 10 points..... Is she that lethal ????
Looks like easy second set for Ina xd.........same like their previous encounter........ Tight in set 1 and walk away in set 2
It will be interesting to see Busanan v Sun Yu in final............two players with meteoric climbs of rank ladder
