* Mixed Doubles: Kenichi Hayakawa/Misaki Matsutomo will face Lee Yong Dae/Ha Jung Eun (KOR)

Probably the Womens Doubles match is the easier one to win.

Lol, why the shocked icon? Last month in the Yonex Japan Open, Misaki lost in the first round in both the WD and the XD. But the scores were respectable against strong opponents; 21-19 18-21 14-21 against Lee Yong Dae/Ha Jung Eun, and 15-21 15-21 against Christinna Pedersen/Kamilla Rytter Juhl . So it was just a matter of time before they manage to beat them.

So happy for Misaki Matsutomo/Ayaka Takahashi.

In Game 3, Christinna Pedersen/Kamilla Rytter Juhl (DEN) began strongly with a 4-0 lead. I thought it was over for MM/AT as the game moved on to 19-17 with CP/KRJ leading.

But MM/AT finished with 4 consecutive points to take the match 21-19, 13-21, 21-19. Long match, lasting 59 minutes;

Next round is the at the Quarter-Finals. MM/AT will be facing another home pair, Line Damkjaer Kruse/Marie Roepke.

I believe that MM/AT can make it into the Semi-Finals.
