The most diverse (number of countries) SS Finals ever is repeated once again.. ..well, well, look what do we have....The tourney almost break another record! But once again, there will be 8 different countries represented in tomorrow's Finals Rd.... On that note, here are my bad and lazy picks for tomorrow's Finals: MS - LCW to win WS - Saina to win her 3rd straight tourneys WD - KORs to win MD - CHN TPE pair to win XD - NastiWan pair to win
I suppose if Taufik does win his 7th INA Open title, this has to be the hardest of 'em all... LCW is just so awesome (in the semifinals)...
Well LCW was also unimpressive in the SO a week ago...It depends on how both players in final perform really. Maybe we can get to see the 2005 TH once again tomorrow . That will be really a treat to the eyes.
If Saina managed to win to day, her hattrick titles( 1GP+2 SS). It just proven there is no excuse for tireness playing 3 tournaments in a row for a real sportmen/women with great determination, good professionalisme, 100% delegated to his/her career and country. Even with 3 finals in a row already a great achievement. Bravo Saina, Bravo India.
So true. She is in such a rich vein of form at the moment I feel sorry for her opponents. Yes it's true there have been no CHN players in her path but she can't control that. We have to give credit where it is due. Saina has been awesome!
I hope your Taufik "man possessed" statement holds true later on. Hoping for a competitive show for the home crowd.
Saina's best performance was last week. She toyed around with Li Xuerui (Asian Champion) and was able to break down Lu Lan almost to tears. This week she dropped a bit but so did the opposition except perhaps Ella Diehl, who lost narrowly to her. What I want to see from Saina is a masterful display on her home soil, she has been far less impressive in India, and that includes her laboured victory over a half-fit WMC in India Open Final two weeks ago. LCW needs to be distracted, maybe employing those sweet Djarum girls courtside might do the trick, wakakakaka ......... But Taufik did play as a possessed man yesterday, knowing that he could not failure after a few other INA defeats.
Saina - Commonwealth Games will be her crowning moment Lee Chong Wei - dang! I'm all for the Djarum girls distraction trick. They look rather hot! Taufik - is he ready to spill blood for his country? LCW will be ready too Ithink
Fully agreed. Singapore SS victory will be sweeter for Saina because she could defeat the Asian champ and World champ in successive round. But given Indonesia SS was her first major title (when she defeated Lu Lan and Lin Wang again in succession), I believe she will cherish this victory even more. Defending a SS title is in itself a great job. Hope she can bring in the Commonwealth Title later this year in front of her home crowd. Oh BTW is start time GMT +7 hrs??
