Yup, rematch of IND GP Gold final

Another INA WS here is Firda who will challenge Jiang YJ at first round, good luck for both of them

Ratchanok v Tai TY, who will win this time?

BWF should change the number of seeds to 16, at least for SSP's.

The seeding system should protect the players who have high rankings. While anyone ranks outside of 8 should pose little threat to LD, LCW and CL, the others in the top 8 are vulnerable to players in the 9th to 16th range.

Especially, given that top 10 players are required to play SSP's, they should not be subject to playing another high ranked player in the first round, e.g. 8th vs 9th.

Aside from being fair to players who earned their rankings, what good does it do when the excitement takes place in an empty stadium with no TV or even streaming?

Hoping Firda does her best, she always lose against China's players. Last, she was defeated by Sun Yu in Macau Open and Wang Lin in Hongkong Open.

blame those who absent.
i think from a spetactor view,i went to qualification,round 1 and round 2,i want excited matches on early days.
so different point of view.

First round match..1) Saina vs Sapsiree - Saina will prevail.
2) Sindhu vs Linda (Rematch of Indian GPG) - Hope Sindhu has learnt from that loss and overcome her this time. If she passes this difficulty, she has to face Li Xuerui (rematch of China Masters Quarterfinal). Lets see Whether Li Xuerui take a revenge of her defeat in the hands of this Young Potential.

I heard from Indonesian Badminton forum that Lindaweni gets a waist injury. I hope she gets well soon.

Actually, i watched her match against Sindhu in Indian Open GPG final. She was struggling with her back in each and every point. It seems like muscle spasms. Hope it will recover soon. Really speaking, she is a great potential for indonesia. Better than Adrianti. She will definitely move ahead to top 10 soon.

Unlucky for Wang Zengming? Maybe not but LCW should be well prepared for this tournament and sail to the final.

Other wasted 1st round matchups, Intanon vs Tai TY, and Busanan vs Mitani , and Sindhu vs Lindaweni.
