Yup, poor Zhang Nan and others who paired with him Top-seed Rijal/Debby has big chance to secure final spot while Irfan/Weni succumbed to Lu Kai/Tang Jinhua, 12-21 / 11-21, the Chinese combination controlled whole match.
OMG...another upset by Ina ws... Desi beat Porntip woohoo It's good to know that when Linda, Firda, Bella and April are in downhill mode, Desi and Febe quietly snuck up good results here Rock on
Tbh up until now, I never see Desi play What is the figure of her, style of play I never realized her capabilities until now, not once cross the thought that she can make some life more difficults for elite players, let alone beat them
oh it's all talk about the capabilities. i watched desi play against the french girl in r1 and it was NOT good, she was on the verge of loosing. Thai girls definitely not playing well, watching Busanan play now and it's a very very average play. Really impressed by how Nan Wei disposed of Arvind Bhat today. If he continues to play like this, Huang Yuxiang and Xue Song might have a real challenge for them.
Derek Wong was playing very well in G2, fast and furious , and leading most of the way until he lost patience towards the end and threw away a good chance to force the decider.
I watched Desi from London GPG and Dutch GP. Actually she's average player, but not like any other Indonesians player she's not lazy at all, a nice footwork and overhead smash court. Powerwise and technique is average. So far these both tournament, having die hard attitude is paying off
well well well, how terrible the dutch pair played and how embarrassing it is for them. Why did they smashing ZN all the time instead of giving the shuttle to genie LG. ZN doesnt look amused all the match, that was quite entertaining
Thanks for clarification Hopefully she can progress to final but it will not be easy match at all against crafty player in sf, Gu Juan
At long last, Danny Chrisnanta and Vanessa Neo made it into the XD final, thus justifying their no. 2 seeding. Well done guys and best of luck for tomorrow!
Good job from the Singapore XD pair over the CHN pair. Hope they can go one better by beating the top seeded INA pair in the final. Go for it !
The 19-yr-old Hui Xirui's inexperience really told, so glaring, caught off guard time and time again by Busanan's clever,deceptive play. Despite being two years younger, Busanan's bearing and self-control on court is impressive, befitting one far beyond her age; she's certainly the clear favourite for the WS title.
Nan Wei seems to have better tactical awareness than Xue Song, just that the former's concentration is lacking. Xue Song's play is more safe and steady but lacks tactical soundness.
Many times XS caught off the guard from WN net play. Shitta Awanda/Della decent WD pair but should play more aggressive especially Awanda from the back court
Without a solid retrieving ability, your opponent will have the confidence to attack you; with one, he will be hesitant and tentative. Xue Song is also outplayed at the net. Another disappointing outing for him after last week's loss to Viktor Axelsen.
Not a good day for CHN squad. Losing 4 out of 7 semifinal spot. Let's see if Li Gen/Zhang Nan can turn the table around and beat the 4th seed.
