Despite MAS winning the MD battle 3-2, INA can take heart that Ulin/Ricky and Berry/Rahmat had given their more fancied opponents a very good fight, as well as Markus/Agri actually upsetting Mak/Teo. Rendy/Afiat did not disappoint either.
The only surprise upset was the victory of Markus/Agri. Once again, they prove that they are the most consistent among the 4 pairs.
Looks like path is clear for 1 MAS MD at the bottom to make the final. Most probably either GVS/LKW or HTH/TWK, where they will take on each other tomorrow.
Thanks to BCers for posting the scores . Thanks to BCers for posting the scores. Now, I have returned home after a session of Badminton. My PAW Game isn't doing well. :crying::crying::crying: Submitted 6 entries, but scored only 2 correct, from the WS section; * Mayu Sekiya (JPN) * Nozomi Okuhara (JPN) .
2012 Malaysia Open GP Gold: Day 2 (Thursday 03-May-2012) should be interesting . Day 2 (Thursday 03-May-2012) should be interesting. I believe that these 6 Singles matches could be the interesting ones to follow; * Chong Wei Feng [8]-vs-Kento Momota * Ashton Chen Y.Z.-vs-Zulfadli.Zulkiffli * Kana Ito-vs-Michelle Chan K.Y. * Chan Tsz Ka [3]-vs-Bellaetrix Manuputti * Busanan Ongbumrungpan-vs-Mayu Sekiya * Nozomi Okuhara-vs-Tee Jing Yi Somehow I believe that all of them will be 3-games matches, lasting around 60 minutes. .
MS R32 - 2 rounds of MS will be played tomorrow. R32 in the morning and R16 at night. Evert Sukamta vs Sai Praneeth B. - I don't think Evert can beat the Indian. Goh Soon Huat vs Shesar Hiren Rhustavito - hopefully, Vito can shine again tomorrow. Tommy Sugiarto [3] vs Park Sung Min - a tricky tie for Tommy, but, as the third-seed, he's expected to face LCW in the SF. Sony Dwi Kuncoro vs Huang Chao - Sony to progress. WS R16 Chan Tsz Ka [3] vs Bellaetrix Manuputty - it was a good result for Bella today. Can she beat the third-seed? Ngan Yi Cheung vs Aprilia Yuswandari [4] - April should take this one. MD R16 Yohanes Rendy Sugiarto/Afiat Yuris Wirawan [7] vs Kim Dae Eun/Lee Sang Joon - another tricky tie awaits Rendy/Afiat...can they reach QF? Markus Fernaldi Gideon/Agripinna Prima Rahmanto Putra [6] vs Mohd Zakry Abdul Latif/Mohd Fairuzizuan Mohd Tazari - on paper, the MAS pair is way more experienced. But I would like to see another upset. WD R16 Yao Lei/Shinta Mulia Sari [1] vs Gebby Ristiyani Imawan/Tiara Rosalia Nuraidah - the SIN pair has the edge. Jenna Gozali/Komala Dewi vs Goh Liu Ying/Lim Yin Loo - a tough call, but, the MAS pair has Goh Liu Ying, who's relatively experienced by now. Chan Hung Yung/Chau Hoi Wah vs Rizky Amelia Pradipta/Pia Zebadiah Bernadeth - Rizky/Pia can go far. Yuki Fukushima/Yuriko Miki vs Suci Rizky Andini/Della Destiara Haris [4] - despite being seeded, I fear Suci/Della might just lose this one. XD R16 Wong Wai Hong/Chau Hoi Wah [3] vs Riky Widianto/Richi Dili Puspita - I am also hoping for an upset for Riky/Richi. Mohd Razif Abdul Latif/Amelia Alicia Anscelly vs Alfian Eko Prasetya/Gloria Emanuelle Widjaja - ditto for Alfian/Gloria. Irfan Fadhilah/Weni Anggraini vs Tan Aik Quan/Lai Pei Jing [4] - the seeded MAS pair to take this one.
Sight unseen, ZZ's lost probably because he was slower than his opponent and didnt really chase the shuttle much......maybe la.........
Ashton is actually pretty decent. I am happy that Zul took him to three games. But yeah, he probably lost out on speed.
