Today's first upset, former champion and third seed Wang Yihan lost to Nichaon Jindapon, 18-21 / 21-18 / 21-13. Another second round exit for Wang YH after last week JPN Open SS, her performance isn't convincing, she looked tired yesterday against Sindhu particularly at game 2.
Nichaon progressed. I thought Busanan has the better chance. Anyway, it's ok if TTY won, so that Limsy will be happy.
Second Thai WS in last eight, Busanan def. Tai TY, 21-16 / 17-21 / 21-19 and Intanon has bright chance to join her compatriots at QF.
