So, the other events will begin their matches tomorrow. A total of 80 matches to be played...16 in each events. These are the selected matches. MS ROUND 1/32: Lin Dan vs Poompat Sapkulchananart -- the Thai no 2 can take advantage if Lin Dan has not recovered from his bitter defeat to LCW on Sunday. Lee Hyun Il vs Liao Sheng-Shiun -- the Chinese Taipei no 1 player is pitted against the Korean no 1 player pretty early in the draw..bad luck to him. Lee to win! Dicky Palyama vs Roman Spitko (MATCH OF THE ROUND) -- the German has had a good outing last week. Can he create another surprise by beating the much fancied Dicky? Lee Cheol Ho vs Eric Pang Kendrick Lee Yen Hui vs Shih Kuei-Chui -- the Singaporean now has a good chance of reaching the quarter-final. He should face Eric Pang next. Yuichi Ikeda vs Yeoh Kay Bin Juergen Koch vs Chen Hong Pei Wei Chung vs Boonsak Ponsana Hwang Jung Woon vs Nguyen Tien Minh -- if he wins, the Viet could face LCW in the third round on Thursday. Chang Feng-Chin vs Lee Chong Wei -- easy first match for the Malaysian. MD ROUND 1/32: Chew Choon Eng/Hong Chieng Hun vs Tsai Chia-Hsin/Hu Chung-Shyan Gan Teik Chai/Mohd Zakry Abdul Latif vs Hwang Ji Man/Jung Tae Kuk -- the Malaysian pair should win! Rian Sukmawan/Eng Hian vs Sudket Prapakamol/Phattapol Ngernsrisuk (MATCH OF THE ROUND) -- can the non-Pelatnas pair win tomorrow? A bad draw for both pairs as the winner should face Hoon Thien How/Tan Boon Heong in Round 1/16. I hope Eng Hian's experience help! Hendry Saputra Kurniawan/Hendra Wijaya vs Kristof Hopp/Ingo Kindervater -- the Singaporean pair scored two major upsets in the SO and I believe they could beat their seeded opposition tomorrow. They can even advance to the quarter-final once again! WS ROUND 1/32: Soratja Chansrisukot vs Lee Hyun Jin Wang Chen vs Juliane Schenk Cheng Shao-Chieh vs Sutheswari Mundukasan -- the local favorite has a tricky first round tie against the improving Malaysian girl. Even if Cheng wins, she is likely to face Wang Chen on Thursday. Hwang Hye Youn vs Jiang Yanjiao -- Jiang has an edge. Salakjit Ponsana vs Xu Huaiwen Chien Yu-Chin vs Tracey Hallam -- I think the local player can win. Li Li vs Nicole Grether Jun Jae Youn vs Xie Xingfang (MATCH OF THE ROUND) -- if Tracey Hallam can beat the Chinese, the much younger Jun can also do it. WD ROUND 1/32: Juliane Schenk/Nicole Grether vs Chou Chia-Chi/Ku Pei-Ting Jiang Yanmei/Li Yujia vs Chien Yu-Chin/Cheng Wen-Hsing (MATCH OF THE ROUND) -- the two pairs yet again meet in the first round...just like the Singapore Open. A time for revenge? Lita Nurlita/Vita Marissa vs Peng Hsiao-Chu/Cheng Wan-Hui -- easy first task for the newly formed Indonesian pair. Lim Pek Siah/Joanna Quay Swee Ling vs Pan Pan/Tian Qing XD ROUND 1/32: Zhang Jun/Gao Ling vs Hoon Thien How/Ooi Sock Ai Songphon Anukritayawon/Kunchala Vorawitchitchaikul vs Lee Yong Dae/Hwang Yu Mi (MATCH OF THE ROUND) -- the unseeded Korean pair to win. Nova Widianto/Lilyana Natsir vs Nattapon Naktong/Duang-Anong Arunkesorn Hwang Ji Man/Kim Min Jung vs Tsai Chia-Chin/Cheng Wen-Hsing
Where are SIMON, MARKIS/HENDRA, SIGIT/FLANDI OK...SInce Taufik and SImon don't play.,....I now support LCW ... I hope LCW meet LD again....in the final...I guess LCW will win
What does this mean in this context? Do you just mean favoured? I hope so. Jun had the same first opponent last week and she took Xie to three games. I hope she can pull it off this time. She has beaten her before, just not very often.
