i think LP/JR might spoil the party. the others look pretty straight forward unless the home WD team can use the support to their advantage.
yeah, but LP/JR have had a mini-resurgence lately. they've beaten CY/FHF and JJS/LYD, so should be an interesting game.
Yes, its going to be very tough one for both.....i pick DEN ...to win as they are in good form lately..
MEN'S SINGLES Taufik Hidayat vs Sony Dwi Kuncoro -- on paper, Taufik should win and he's very much fired up now. However, in my heart, I hope Sony can win his first title since the SEA Games Gold Medal in 2005. MEN'S DOUBLES Markis Kido/Hendra Setiawan vs Lars Paaske/Jonas Rasmussen (MATCH OF THE DAY) -- expect lots of fireworks...and I hope the INA pair can reaffirm their credentials. This win will propel them to World No 1 ranking by next week (according to my calculation just now). WOMEN'S SINGLES Wang Chen vs Pi Hongyan -- the HKG-based player to take it. WOMEN'S DOUBLES Chien Yu-Chin/Cheng Wen-Hsing vs Vita Marissa/Lilyana Natsir -- with no Chinese participation, Lee/Lee is perhaps the strongest opponent, with Chien/Cheng a close second. It's always tough beating this pair and they have beaten Vita/Butet earlier. So, expect a cracking match too. Vita might just win two titles her. MIXED DOUBLES Thomas Laybourn/Kamilla Rytter-Juhl vs Flandy Limpele/Vita Marissa -- a chance for Flandy/Vita to collect their second title of the year. But, the Danes are no pushover, esp after watching today's match. Still, the INA pair holds an edge.
Taufik Vs Sony?....Hmm...Challenging! Sony is a great player now. But of coz I hope taufik can win him..
Right now, Kido/Hendra will rise to no 2 with 70699 points. KKK/TBH will be the top with 71064 pts. Fu/Cai will drop to no 3 with 67684 pts. However, if Kido/Hendra win tomorrow, they will add another 1050 points and nab the top rank from KKK/TBH.
if MK/HS win tomorrow, they will take the second spot... FHF/CY is still far beyond them as of now... a big gap...
Hmmm ....... most of you may think INA has a big chance to win most titles. I would be very cautious though. The Danish MD pair is very dangerous. They are tall and hard smashers. The Danish XD has proven themselves by defeating Nova/Lilyana yesterday. The TPE WD pair has a home crowd support. Additionally, Vita will play two matches. I would say two titles for INA would be more reasonable. Three would be a blessing. I don't think INA will take four.
