Here are some exciting matches : Taufik v Bao Chunlai Chen Jin v PSH Firda v Tai Tzu Ying Today matches will begin at 11 am local time...
As much as I like Firda, I think TTY will be too much for her All of a sudden CJ has found his stride. Will; be tough for PSH, whose form has been spotty of late TH v BCL - battle of the golden oldies. Wonder how much Daren Liew took out of TH. That could be the determining factor.
I think INA will only have representatives in the Doubles from tomorrow onwards. Sad...but that's the hard truth.
Other matches that could hit the headlines: - Sho Sasaki v LD - the last time round, the never say die Japanese pushed LD very hardt. - WSX v CSC - the TPE tomboy has the ability to pull off an upset. WSX better be on top of her game or she could be gone. A long match in on the cards which doesn't augur well for the health of our hearing. - Rat v JYJ - Rat can be brilliant one moment and decidedly average the next. That's part and parcel of being a young player. I'm betting the brilliant Rat will show up today and eliminate JYJ - CL v Tago - the longer Tago is able to keep CL on the court, the better chance he has of winning. Will be close regardless - Liu Xin (CHN) v Li Xuerui (CHN) - would someone like to take a stab at this one?
Prepare for your earplug, madbad.... WSX will out and about today... I am not sure if Chn team will be put a stunt like Sin SS again to have a w/o so early in front of noisy,crazy, electric crowd at Istora (here's hoping) I really hope they don't, for the sake of everything
Yeah, that is the expected result. But Taufik playing at home may surprise BCL. Firda also has some chance against young Taiwan player.
Looks to me like Japan have some dangerous floaters in this round. It all depends on who has recovered best from the trials of the day before! Any news about what was on LD's diet last night?
