From BWF, I got some info as follows: INA has withdrawn: WD: Yulianti/Puspita Richi MD: Nova Widianto/M.Rizal Tantowi/Vicky Indra XD: Vita Marissa/Nova Widianto But M.Rizal/Lilyana is in as well as Vita Marissa/Natsir ( WD)
Good move....let Vita/Butet concentrate in WD. Anyway, there will be Devin/Lita in the main draw. Looks like Yulianti, Richi and Tantowi are all going to stay back home.
There are some withdrawal also from qualification....I think MD from HKG..next few days, I will know more on WS...I would like to see at least 2 WS withdraw so Pia and Febe can move to main draw..
Vita/Natsir is still in maindraw....I think Nova decided not to go Macau so thats why no Nova/Vita and Nova/Rijal....
Maybe Nova's wife is preagnant already and need him by her side...?!? Just a speculation... [no data on this]
It can be true....I did ask BWF why he did withdraw....it was " personal"..so your guess can be right.... Macau federation told me that there 2 or 3 WS withdrew, but BWF said to me that it will be decied in few days...so I guess I may ask macau federation directly instead.....
WS withdrawals from the main draw = good for INA ladies... Great! Among the 8 seeded qualifiers, 7 are Indonesians... So the more WS withdrawals from the main draw, the better for INA... 1st to move up: Pia [Pia Zebadiah Bernadet]. 2nd: Febe [Maria Febe Kusumastuti]. 3rd: Fira [Maria Elfira Christina]. 4th: Pipin [Rosaria Yusfin Pungkasari]. 5th: Nana [Fransisca Ratnasari]. 6th: Sylvi [Sylvina Kurniawan]. 7th: Lydia Cheah [MAS] 8th: Melicia Kurniawan But I have to admit whoever among the 8 players above who gets into the main draw will have to all face tough opponents. I predict, realistically, by the Round of 16, there will be only 1 WS left from INA... If we have 2 WS in the Round of 16, I will be jumping for joy! But good playing experience for them laaaahhh... They are all 22 years old or younger, I think. Still time to improve...
Well.. ..let's hope he won't withdraw, @ the last minute, also..(flying here and there could take a toll on someone's physique, esp. within 1 week, ya know)..
Another withdrawal today: Wang Chen (WS) So Pia gets promoted and she will meet Wang Lin WTF!! I hope I am wrong... Kendrick Lee (MS)
so.. the redraw of WD.. vita/butet will face gao/huang at d'first round???? oh cmon lah.. break the wall please..
