Predicted winners in bold. MEN'S SINGLES Lee Hyun Il (1) vs Michael Christensen -- the Dane defeated Pei Wei Chung Liao Sheng-Shiun (8) vs Chang Shih-Ying Chan Yan Kit vs Marleve Mainaky -- should be an interesting match Park Sung Hwan (6) vs Yang Thang Feng Stuart Brehaut vs Joachim Persson (7) Nguyen Tien Minh vs Shon Seung Mo (4) Yohan Hadikusumo Wiratama vs Feng Chi Hua Budi Santoso vs Hsieh Yu-Hsing WOMEN'S SINGLES Tracey Hallam (1) vs Lin Chuan Chang Kuei-Ching vs Maria Kristin Yulianti -- Hendrawan thinks she can win the title...

MEN'S DOUBLES Mathias Boe/Carsten Mogensen (1) vs Chung Chih Yu/Chen Yung Ming Jung Jae Sung/Han Sang Hoon (5) vs Yoga Ugi Kasah/Yonathan Suryatama Dasuki -- can the young Indo pair create a surprise?

Can the "gado-gado" combination of Tony/Cheng create a huge upset by beating the soon to be world no 1 Lee/Lee? Tran Thanh-Hai/Le Ngoc Nguyen Nhung vs Hui Wai Ho/Chow Hoi Wah Lam Hoi Tak/Li Wing Mui vs Fang Chieh Min/Ku Pei-Ting Wang Chia Min/Wang Pie Rong vs Chung Chih Yu/Wan Shin-Chun Lin Chia-Hong/Chen Hsiao Huan vs Lin Yi Chih-Chang Ya-Lan Lee Sheng Mu/Cheng Hsiao Yun vs Tsai Chia-Hsin/Chien Yu-Chin Huang Shin Hua/Hu Hsiu Lien vs Su Yi Neng/Chang Yun Ju Devin Lahardi/Vita Marissa vs Yang Chiao-Hao/Lin Hsiao-Hui -- the path is cleared for Devin/Vita with all the seeds losing in the first round. They have to face 3 Taiwanese pairs now before reaching the final.
Not yet, only the winners for MS, WS, and XD. Results for MD and WD will probably be out sometime tonight hopefully....by those Taiwanese newspapers. If not, have to rely on the official results.
