MEN'S SINGLES Chen Jin [4] vs Sony Dwi Kuncoro [5] -- Sony's confidence and form are quite high, going into the match, with a 9-0 record over the past 2 weeks, beating Bao Chunlai and Lee Chong Wei. If he can beat Chen Jin tomorrow, then, this means that he will have beaten 3 of out of 4 players ranked above him. I think he has a good chance of taking the title tomorrow! MEN'S DOUBLES Markis Kido/Hendra Setiawan [1] vs Sun Junjie/Xu Chen -- surprise, surprise as the opponent is not Fu/Cai, but, their juniors Sun/Xu. Kido/Hendra should take this one, however, they need to be careful and alert. WOMEN'S SINGLES Zhou Mi [6] vs Wang Lin -- I am banking on Zhou Mi to win another SS title tomorrow, after the disappointment last week. WOMEN'S DOUBLES Zhang Dan/Zhang Zhibo vs Cheng Shu/Zhao Yunlei -- surprise surprise, we have a Finalist from Macau....will they create history by beating the more favored Chinese pair? We shall see.... MIXED DOUBLES Nova Widianto/Liliyana Natsir [1] vs Xie Zhongbo/Zhang Yawen [3] -- a tough match in prospect as always between these 2 pairs.....Nova/Butet do have a slight edge given their last few encounters against Xie/Zhang.
Hmm...4 Surprise Finalist For Me...hehe...hope My Upset List Will Be Longer Tomorow...good Luck For All Player...especially Sdk And Sun Jun Jie/xu Chen
MEN'S SINGLES Chen Jin [4] vs Sony Dwi Kuncoro [5] -- Sony's confidence and form are quite high, as BadMania said. But Chen Jin is fresher and will be fully supported with "insider knowledge" from Bao ..... MEN'S DOUBLES Markis Kido/Hendra Setiawan [1] vs Sun Junjie/Xu Chen -- no surprise, Kido/Hendra should take this one. WOMEN'S SINGLES Zhou Mi [6] vs Wang Lin -- I support Zhou Mi, but expect her to be disappointed yet again. Towering strength of the other Wang girl is too much. WOMEN'S DOUBLES Zhang Dan/Zhang Zhibo vs Cheng Shu/Zhao Yunlei-- no surprise, the finalists from Macau were ex-CHN squad players .... and they have more experience that the Japan Open champs. MIXED DOUBLES Nova Widianto/Liliyana Natsir [1] vs Xie Zhongbo/Zhang Yawen [3] -- I would give this to Nova/Lilyana on account of head to head records, but they have not been in the best of form lately.
Er... No surprise? These CHN juniors have beaten KKK/TBH and CY/FHF on their way into final. Who knows if MK/HS will be their next victim?
hmm...do koo/tan is at the same level with both OG finalist to u???... i tot many think koo/tan is a pair that anyone can beat eh...
All matches tomorrow represent chinese players.. How many title can they get? We hope to see MK/HS against cai/fu in final, but it not happen. Is it LYB's strategy to make unknown players to play olympic champion? NoLyn against xie/zhang would be a tough game, same like against zheng/gao. All the best to indonesian players.. SELAMAT HARI LEBARAN..
2008 China Masters Super Series Finals . MEN'S SINGLES Chen Jin [4] vs Sony Dwi Kuncoro [5] -- At this tournament, both CJ and SDK got through their 4 matches without byes or walkovers. CJ did not lose a game at all. SDK lost only one, at the Semis to BCL 12-21 in Game 2. SDK's confidence must have been shaken by it. But when he came back winning 21-15 in Game 3, SDK's confidence should be now higher. If this match were to go to 3 games, SDK should win it. If to 2 games, CJ could win it. MEN'S DOUBLES Markis Kido/Hendra Setiawan [1] vs Sun Junjie/Xu Chen -- With MK/HS's experience, they should have a better chance to take this one. I thought SJJ/XC's win over CY/FHF was fixed. But I could be wrong. WOMEN'S SINGLES Zhou Mi [6] vs Wang Lin -- ZM is hungrier to win this one I think. And with more experience, ZM has an advantage... if her fitness and strength could match up with WL. Skillwise, ZM is better. WOMEN'S DOUBLES Zhang Dan/Zhang Zhibo vs Cheng Shu/Zhao Yunlei -- ZD/ZZB will create history for Macau. If they could work just as hard as when they defeated the 4th and the 6th seeds, they should take this one. MIXED DOUBLES Nova Widianto/Liliyana Natsir [1] vs Xie Zhongbo/Zhang Yawen [3] -- NW/LN should know how to defeat XZB/ZYW. All they need to do is to play the same way as they have played them in their past matches. .
MEN'S SINGLES Chen Jin [4] vs Sony Dwi Kuncoro [5] - I'm not sure how well Chen Jin played after the Olympic but the fresher Chen Jin should have the slight advantage. MEN'S DOUBLES Markis Kido/Hendra Setiawan [1] vs Sun Junjie/Xu Chen - Is this Director Li's strategy to let this unknown pair to play the World and Olympic champions? And if beating Koo/Tan and Fu/Cai is of any indications, I won't be too surprised if the top seeds are to be upset. WOMEN'S SINGLES Zhou Mi [6] vs Wang Lin - After watching how Wang Yihan was beaten yesterday, I am rooting for the fresher Wang Lin to win her maiden SS title. WOMEN'S DOUBLES Zhang Dan/Zhang Zhibo vs Cheng Shu/Zhao Yunlei - The more experience China-born pair should have the upper hand. MIXED DOUBLES Nova Widianto/Liliyana Natsir [1] vs Xie Zhongbo/Zhang Yawen [3] - I'm rooting for the fresher Xie/Zhang this time.
Can anyone tell me where I can watch the live streaming? I'm on CCTV 5 right now but it's showing boxing.
