As feared, both MS players failed to qualify. Taufik Akbar Hidayat got the ticket to the main draw to be played today.

Mixed Doubles R32
Mikkel Delbo-Larsen/Mie Schjott-Kristensenvs Fran Kurniawan/Shendy Puspa Irawati -- a tricky match for Fran/Shendy. I hope they can continue their fine run towards the Final last week.
Men's Singles R32
Ari Yuli Wahyu Hartanto vs Raul Must -- the Djarum pair should take this one.
Women's Singles R32
Anna Rice [1] vs Rosaria Yusfin Pungkasari -- the top seed has the edge.
Jang Soo Young [8] vs Syvinna Kurniawan -- 50-50 and the Korean player has the slight edge.
Eva Sladekova vs Maria Elfira Christina -- Fira should take this one.
Fran Kurniawan/Rendra Wijaya [4] and Meiliana Jauhari/Shendy Puspa Irawati will start to play only in R16.

I was wrong in predicting the INA MS strength [Hayom and Wisnu]... I will not debate badMania anymore... Ha ha ha... He is like an oracle...

Fran/Shendy could become one of INA's main XD pair if both of them want to focus on XD also.

Yes, they're definitely more explosive [power-wise] than Tantowi-Yulianti. Maybe they just lack the shot-variations and too predictable. Rizal-Greysia has the shot-variations and shot-unpredictability, just not enough power [compared to the top-pairs]... Originally Posted by badMania

By the way, Ari Yuli Wahyu have defeated Raul Must 21-15, 21-9 and Peter Mikkelsen [5] defeated Taufik Hidayat Akbar 21-14, 21-10.
Wahyu vs. Peter will play later on tonight...
in around 4 hours time...

When they are not playing well, like today, Rizal/Grace can lose easily because they are just not too powerful and looked lost Originally Posted by Krisna

Yes... Pipin lost 13-21, 21-13, 21-16 in 52 minutes... Sigh...
Fira totally demolished her opponent. Must be due to injury or something...
I am still waiting for the Sylvi result...

I think it could be the case of China doing their homework (i.e. video work) more dilligently than INA. especially since He/Yu narrowly won last time they played Rizal/Grace. Originally Posted by badMania

I still predict INA will win 1 or 2 titles in Finland... from MD, WD, and XD... most probably not from WS or MS...

Mixed Doubles R16
Dean George/Mariana Agathangelou vs Fran Kurniawan/Shendy Puspa Irawati -- another tricky match for Fran/Shendy but we know that they are powerful enough....
Men's Singles R16
Ari Yuli Wahyu Hartanto vs Peter Mikkelsen [5] -- a tough battle for Wahyu...I think the Danes has an edge.
Women's Singles R16
Maria Elfria Christina vs Anastasia Kudinova -- Fira should take this one.

Men's Doubles R16
Fran Kurniawan/Rendra Wijaya [4] vs Steinar Klausen/Hallstein Oma -- should be a breeze for Fran/Rendra.
Women's Doubles R16
Meiliana Jauhari/Shendy Puspa Irawati vs Emelie Lennartsson/Emma Wengberg -- ditto for Mel/Shendy.

Tomorrow, Fran-Shendy vs. Rizky-Qi Yu... for a spot in the SF.
Wahyu must be playing at this time. Argh, no livescore...
