Apart from the INA team, BCL, Cai yun/ Fu haifeng and Du jing/ Yu yang may also withdraw from HKSS. (according to sina.com) :crying:
For those INA players that are in the draw already, most of them are almost certain to come (barring last minute injuries). However, Maria Kristin Yulianti will not come as I heard that she was injured
shocked me, I thought whole team withdrew except Taufik like China Open But it's too bad with the absence of Maria
For MS, Taufik Hidayat and PB Djarum's 3 MS players: Andre Kurniawan Tedjono, Ari Yuli Wahyu Hartanto, and Dionysius Hayom Rumbaka will be there. For WS, 2 from PB Djarum: Maria Febe Kusumastuti and Rosaria Yusfin Pungkasari. The other two are Adriyanti Firdasari and Pia Bernadet Zebadiah. For MD, Markis Kido/Hendra Setiawan, Rian Sukmawan/Yonathan Suryatama Dasuki and Bona Septano/Mohd Ahsan. For WD, only Vita Marissa/Liliyana Natsir. For XD, Nova Widianto/Liliyana Natsir and Mohd Rijal/Vita Marissa. A total of 14 players/pairs, out of which 3 will have to go through qualifying matches starting from tomorrow late afternoon.
Yeah, three INA players will play qualifying round today and tomorrow -- Dionysius, Pia Zebadiah and Rosaria 'Pipin'. Hard chance for Dion to enter main drawing, there's Chen Hong in his path.
According to the latest news: MS withdrawal -- Bao Chunlai, Mohd Hafiz Hashim, Kenichi Tago, Sho Sasaki WS withdrawal -- Lu Lan, Maria Kristin Yulianti, Hirayama Yu
Pia Bernadet Zebadiah should be in the main draw already, probably replacing Maria Kristin's place, while Hayom and Pipin will have easier routes to main draw after Chen Hong and Jung Soo Young qualify.
why maria n lulan??? why they always didn't join the tourney if one of them withdraw??? like china SS n HKG SS now, they both withdraw.. on the other hand, if both of them join, they always fight each other... it's look like they are really ' jodoh ' ( sorry, i dunno the english... ) what a shame maria withdraw from here.. i really hope she can lift up her ranking...
I'm really disappointed that Maria Kristin withdrew, was looking forward to see her back in action....
I would like to see LCW withdrew, as he is already play too much... it's time for him to rest and get prepare for SS final in Kota Kinabalu.
