The Thais are getting better eh? 15 years old? Wow... I hope there aren't any 'age stealing' over there like in Indonesia... Bellaetrix also just lost... Aiyaa... So only 2 INA WS left... I don't know how good the #1 seeded Taiwanese player that will play Ana tomorrow... but Ana will probably loose tomorrow. If Ana can defeat Hung, then it will be the biggest upset of the WS category... As for Febby against Kim Moon Hi, the tall Korean has a huge height advantage but lack the killer soft skills... Febby can take her on...
Ratchanok is also a quarter finalist is the recent world junior. For her age she has good badminton sense and good skill. it is delightful to watch her play. She will be one of the player to watch out for at Youth Olympic in Spore 2010.
Ratchanok might have to face Dinar from INA at the 2010 Youth Olympics... Dinar is also 15... has the killer instinct, but still very raw today...
wow.. one from Thailand and one from Indonesia. This will make the Youth Olympic interesting. Ratchanok of Thailand, Dinar Indonesia and I heard India they have Reddy Seikki. Anybody heard anything from China, Korea and Japan
1st WS INA U-16 is Tiara Rosalia who finalist against Ratchanok in Asia U-16 2008. Maybe Dinar is 4th WS after Tiara, Suci & Elizabeth
wow...vivian looks determine at here...win over chen shih ying...i never ever think of this...well done...
Only 1 out of 3 INA's MS players survives and is through to the QF. Andreas Adityawarman beat the eighth-seed Chong Li Qun in three-sets: 15-21, 21-14, 21-17. Meanwhile, Andi Nugroho Saputro lost to the seeded Korean player Shon Wan Ho, while Bandar Sigit Pamungkas also lost as expected to the second-seed Kuan Beng Hong. So, Andreas will face an interesting clash against Tan Chun Seang tomorrow. 5 more matches for today: 3 WD and 2 MD and realistically, I expect only Rizky Yanu Kresnayadi/Albert Saputra and hopefully Annisa Wahyuni/Nimas Rani Wijayanti to progress. Debby Susanto/Komala Dewi have a tough tie against Bae Seung Hee/Park Sun Young, while Delis Yuliana/Yayu Rahayu should lose to the top-seed Frances Liu Fan/Vanessa Neo Yu Yan.
Phew...Rizky Yanu Kresnayadi/Albert Saputra fulfill their seeding as they progress to the QF. I think they can beat their Japanese opponent tomorrow.
Today tally: Indonesia 0 - 2 Thailand Indonesia 3 - 3 Malaysia (so far, 1 more match) Indonesia 2 - 1 ROC Indonesia 0 - 2 S. Korea Indonesia 0 - 1 Singapore Total so far: Indonesia 5 - 9 F. Opponents
Yeszz! Rizky-Albert are in the quarterfinals.... Their Japanese opponent there is not famous... Maybe a semifinal appearance is a 55% possibility...
