XD: Widianto/Natsir vs Paaske/Scholdager - 50/50 Zheng/Gao vs Rizal/Polii - Gao Ling n partner steamroll the opposition Mateuziak/Kostiuczyk vs Zhang/Zhao - China advantage unless Zhang Jun plays comedian Limpele/Marissa vs Blair/Bankier - Indonesia's best pair advance Han/Hwang vs He/Yu - Chinese have done hard part yesterday, this one should be easier Lee/Lee vs Sudket/Saralee - too close to call, slight advantage to Thais Tazari/Wong vs Robertson/Emms - Eng pair will break my heart Songphon/Kunchala vs Xie/Zhang - China all the way
My prediction: Lee/Lee over sudket/Saralee Xie/Zhang over Kunchala/Songphon Marissa/Limpele over Blair/Bankier Rizal/Poliee vs Zheng Gao...hope it is 50-50%
WS : Double X vs Sarah Persson - piece of cake for LD's girl WMC vs Tine Rasmussen - MAS girl to progress further after tough fight Xu Huaiwen vs Huang Chia Chi - German engineering is better than Aussie Yippie vs Cheng Shao Chieh - Yippie with advantage, Cheng is in good form though Maria Kristin vs Wang Chen - Chance of upset? Maybe, but I doubt it Hwang Hye Youn vs Eriko Hirose - Cute Jap turn tables on her AG conquerer Kaori Mori vs Zhang Ning - age will not stop CHN girl Judith Meulendijks vs Pi Hongyan - French will negotiate this barrier safely MS: LD vs Simon Santoso - a great battle expected, with LD on top KBH vs Chen Yu - no compromises from the lesser known Chen Hafiz vs Boonsak - no reason why Hafiz should lose here Chen Jin vs Kendrick Lee - CHN youngster extinguishes SIN hope Sony vs Ronald Susila - as do Sony Ng Wei vs Kenneth Jonassen - Kenneth too stable for HK man Taufik vs Gade - I'll give this vote to TAUFIK, yeah!!!! WCH vs Sato - depends on who controls the speed, 50-50.
My Prediction MS Lin Dan vs Simon Santoso TH vs Peter Gade- 50/50 but i do hope TH win. WCH vs Shoji Sato Hafiz vs Boonsak Ponsana KJ vs Ng wei Chen Yu vs Kuan Ben Hong Chen Jin vs Kederick Lee Ronald Susilo vs Soni Dwi Kuncoro
Widianto/Natsir vs Paaske/Scholdager - 50/50 50/50??? Waks, i dont even know who scholdager is. Come on, i will say 99/1 for widianto/natsir. Go...go...
Just a gut feeling as Passke is good at Mixed....Nova/Natsir are not same level since last year...still I hope INA pair will win...not easy one though...
Well .. you better make some research before .. because if you don't even know the Mixed double bronze medallist at the last Olympics Games with Jens Eriksen .. aiiyaa
WD : Wei/Zhang vs Emms/Kellogg - ENG doesn't have a chance Polii/Marissa vs Ogura/Shiota - INA pair has psychological advantage, cute Japs have Park Joo Bong Lee/Lee vs Chou/Ku - no question, KOR win unless KOR injury Jiang/Lee vs Endang/Rani - INA more talented, but home support would nick it for SIN pair Maeda/Suetsuna vs Yang/Zhao - CHN scratch pair way too good Du/Yu vs Wong/Chin - slight advantage with CHN, experience with MAS Mette/Overzier vs Gao/Zhang - German girls won't scratch CHN Ha/Kim vs Chien/Cheng - TPE pair on top MD : Fu/Cai vs Tan/Ong - the score is 1-1, Tan/Ong can make it 2-1 Jung/Lee vs Stoyanov/Popov - KOR progresses without a sweat Tony/Candra vs Xie/Guo - the new favourites pass through Clark/Blair vs Han/Hwang - ENG by skin of their teeth Sukmawan/Eng Hian vs Tazari/Latif - MAS pair on song Logotz/Mateuziak vs Kido/Setiawan - time for INA pair to return to form Ohtsuka/Masuda vs Choong/Lee - MAS veterans to win, unless they self-destruct Gunawan/Riyadi vs Eriksen/Lundgaard - Danes are like wine
MD FHF/CY vs TBS/OSH - i'll root for FHF/CY but i do hope TBS/OSH will make an upset . JJS/LJJ vs Stoyanov/Popov Tony/Candra vs Xie/Guo - sure the master will win Clark/Blair vs HSH/HJM Fairuz/Zakry vs Sukmawan/Eng Hian Logotz/Mateuziak vs Kido/Setiawan Ohtsuka/Masuda vs CTF/LWW Eriksen/Lundgaard vs Gunawan/Riyadi
I hope Joko Riyadi/Gunawan makes upset today against experienced Danes....time for them to step up as young Koreans had showed great progress....
PG sure will win .......... reason : last nite, TH played so-so only ...... joking reason : last nite TH left the Indoor stadium around 10.15pm with 2 girls, they chit-chat just above me (around 5 rows above me), one of girl looks like Winnie Prakusya (TH former girlfriend) ...... hahaz. but I hope TH wins ............
Err...I don't think Wynne Prakusya is TH's former gf. She is in fact studying in SG right now....I believe doing her degree at the SIM University.
Wynne was former TH's gf, first gf who covered by media. They have broken after Sydney 2000. Just read the news, Wynne will play in SEA Games Thailand. I hope she come back again in tennis tour, Indonesia tennis in slump this time.
My prediction MS LD vs Simon Hafiz vs Boonsak TH vs PG :Hope to c TH in final wif LD WCH vs Shoji Sato MD CY n FHF vs TBS n OSH Tony n Candra vs Guo n Xie Zakry n Fairuz vs Rian Sukmawan n Eng Hian LWW n CTF vs Ohtsuka n Masuda WS WMC vs Tine Rasmussen:
The games begin... on court XD : nova/lilyana vs lars/mette,ZB/GL vs gresia/rizal,zhang/zao vs robert/nadie, vita/flandy vs robert/imogen
Wynne is used to be TH's girlfriend..trust me...I know Wynne for last 6 yrs . I met her many times when she played in US.... Wynne had been offererd by Singapore for US$ 150 K to represent Singapore for Sea Games but she turned it down....bravo to Wynne
More challenges for INA representatives at R/16: XD - Nova/Lilyana vs Paaske/Schjoldager, quite hard-test for N/L - Rijal/Polii vs ZB/GL, seems INA pair stop in this round - Flandy/Vita vs England/Scotland combination, INA should enter QF WS -- Maria vs Wang Chen, ex-CHN player has loads of experience than Maria WD - Rani/Endang vs home pair, Singaporean hope still shines - Gres/Vita vs Japanese idol, 50-50 MS - INA's sensational maker vs PG, doubtly how PG can overcome TH - Simon vs the #1, time to prove for Simon that he can REALLY beat LD on top-form condition - Sony vs local fave, looks like Sony meet CJ tomorrow MD - Kido/Setiawan vs Poland, quite comfortable step for INA number one pair - Joko/Hendra vs Eriksen/L-Hansen, the Dane should prevail - Rian/Eng Hian vs Zakry/Fairuz, high confidence from MAS pair to win after they shocked the hotshot last night *Off-topic -- don't think Wynne can contribute big impact for INA tennis achievement, Yayuk Basuki is still the best that INA ever had until now (Yayuk's best rank in Singles : #19 and Doubles :#9). Another rising-star is Angelique Widjaja but she has problem with injured.
Not sure yet..I just met Yayauk Basuki last week...Wynne has not committed yet...so far is Romana...Sandy Gumulya...Lavinia and I forgot another one..Ayu is supposed to be one of them but she refused to join training centre with Martina Widjaja's camp...it will be great if Wynne joins for Sea games...and I know that Indo is willing to put wynne...Angelique widjaja is retired...dont ask me how I know...
