Yup...it's probably a warm up event for the SS Finale the following week. It's basically almost like an internal competition, with very few outside participants.
hope all my fave perform well here...^^...all the best for mas duo...tcs and vountus...hope the draw will be better...
Does anyone know what happened to Jun Jae Youn? I know she's been missing from the SS circuit since the Beijing OG. Has she succumbed to her injuries and retired? If she has, what a shame. Great talent that never reached her full potential. I will miss her :crying: On the other hand, my other fave HHY is playing
^^Only 1 person knows...^^ ...the whereabouts of JJY and that person is......................................event. Do you know her thread in the Professional Players sub-forum has been equally quiet??maybe it's time to re-ignite her thread??..
^^Thank you in advance..^^ ..and once you get them, don't forget to share the wealth of infos with the rest of us.........
Why not many Korean WS after Bang So Hyun perform well in badminton world? We still can see a lot of MD and WD of Korean, but not WS, I think INA regeneration better than KOR WS...
I have the opposite opinion After Mia left, Head to head WS INA vs WS KOR, Korea was better I didn't have record Maria against KOR WS, Firdasari never win against Hwang Hye Youn, Lee Hyun Jin, Seo Yoon Hee. Bae Youn Joo looked promising as future WS, sorry I say that she better than INA future WS. Better h2h WS INA only on "older" players vs "upcoming" WS KOR, like Lidya Jaelawijaya beat Jun J.Y. ON SC, Ellen Angelina beat Lee K.W. or Silvi Antarini ever beat Jun J.Y. Ra Kyung Min, Lee Kyung Won were good single players, maybe they were best KOR WS on those periode. Ra K.M., Lee K.W. and others WS KOR moved to focus on WD & XD, it was their choice. They saw bigger chance on doubles. After Mia Audiana, only Maria who compete in high level of WS. Jun Jae Youn took a long time absent because of injury.
With Korean elite players participation into this international challenge, slim chance for other countries to win here...Today's match will stage MS and WS (R/64) with most players get first round bye.
From the looks of it, TCS has the capability to get into the final. Ot at least, that should be the threshold of success for him.
