Matches have begun. Due to some strange security dictat, spectators are not allowed to carry cameras with them and the parking is very far from stadium entrance. So that means you walk around a kilometer in baking 40C Delhi heat. Anyway, won't mind it much. Bye for now.
Kuan Beng Hong takes first set home, 21-16, now leading 3-0 in the second. CHONG WEI FENG UP AGAINST TAGO KENICHI NOW.
Kuan Beng Hong 11-3 Nguyen Hoang Nam Tago Kenichi 6-3 Chong Wei Feng Taufik destroying opponent 21-6; 11-2
Kuan Beng Hong slows down, 16-10 Nguyen Hoang Nam...and flies off to win 21-10 to seal his place in Round 32. Tago Kenichi 13-7 Chong Wei Feng Taufik Hidayat wins easily 21-6; 21-9
Hope Wei Feng at least takes a set off Tago Kenichi, then let Tago win so that he can meet Taufik later. Tago Kenichi 15-11
Tago Kenichi leads 11-8 at the break, no chance for Chong Wei Feng at all. And he marches on to 12-8.
Nope, he meets two Malaysians today. Kuan Beng Hong is up next. I'm staying neutral but when Tago progresses to the third round I'll support him all the way.
