wow, what i can say. the round of 16 already produce so many interesting matches.. i'm sure tomorrow's quarter final will be much more interesting.. expect a tough fight between ld and pg and sony vs lcw.. may the best man win.. xxf vs zhou mi..wow, who do you think will win this match?? koo/tan against former wc bach/gunawan..hope mas will be able to win here...iah!..
looking forward to possibly the biggest match of the QF well defienetly in the MS section LD(5) vs PG(3)
In the WS draw I would say the biggest match is between WR1 ZM(1) vs the inform XXF (5)However XXF came through a 51 minute match today which could have either tired her or made her more prepared
in the WDs draw IMHO the biggest and toughest match for both pairs is the match between MJ/WX (6) vs LHJ/LWK (3) MJ/WX are fresh from winning the Malaysian open and in good form there seeding doesn't really reflect the form they are in
And last but not least the MD KKK/TBH (2) vs TG/HB (unseeded) They may be unseeded however TG/HB are former WC And they have already taken out another MAS pair seeded 12 Can they do it again ? I hope not
QF will starting at 2:00 PM (local time) Just comin' back from checkin' draws and order of plays from TS, here's the link: http://www.tournamentsoftware.com/s...6051B5-CD7B-4E98-A111-5A927631C0C1&d=20090814 Whoaaa, definetely lots of interesting matches Unfortunately for INA camp only 4 representatives remain, after some kind of massacre and heavy casualties in the round of 16 Best of luck for TH, SDK, SS (MS) and Nova/Lily (XD)
This is where.. ..the rubber (shoe's sole) meets the floor mat!!...Where we separate the contenders from the pretenders!!...Where da big boys (and big girls) show who's boss!!...And where our loyal M'sian BCers will keep their hopes & dreams alive for 1 more day!!.. Should be a fun & exciting day of matches...Too bad, we U.S. Pacific-based BCers will have to slough through the night watching the matches...
Wow... this is really Quarter Final?? I must say, today is battle between CHN and KOR. 5 Matches!!! 3-2 with KOR as winner. . I won't pick the name. And for the rest... KKK/TBH vs TG/HB Na...na...na...na...na... Must be cracking..... TG/HB look good until yesterday. But, can they roll this MAS pair? I think KKK/TBH ready for this... They must show the world that they still there... Rubber game here. Bolehian will smile. Simon Santoso vs Chen Jin They are really slow starter. But from their yesterday matches, they look solid. Crashing their opponent delicately. I hope Simon will spring surprise here. Sony Dwi Kuncoro vs Lee Chong Wei Mrs. Kuncoro must prepare some 'warm reception' for her newly husband. I think LCW is in good form. But, what will SDK choose? Semifinal ticket or another ticket to Indonesia? Lin Dan vs Peter Gade Errmmm... Gade is really ready for this. He has said that LD is the toughest here... there you go. Enjoy your matches, gentleman! But, I think everyone knows the result rite?? Taufik Hidayat vs Jan O Jorgensen Hmmm… Mr. Taufik looks solid in every match. Then can he sustain his performance? JOJ had sweated much to get here. I think he is ready to serve Taufik with some good menu. Rubber set here and I really hope Taufik will get through… Nova/Liliyana vs Diju/Jwala This is really good drawing for NoLyn. They must take the advantage! One SF seat please.
2009 World Championships statistic COUNTRY ROUND 3 QUARTER SEMI China 17 14 ? stil very dominating Indonesia 9 4 ? a big disaster yesterday Denmark 8 5 ?

To me, the only "sure win" match is Lin Dan vs Peter Gade. I am sure Peter will try to put up a good fight but Lin Dan is just too strong and too fast for Peter. This match reminds me about Chen Jin vs Choon Hann, even Choon Hann admitted is hard for him to catch up with Chen Jin. Chong Wei and Sony match is 50-50, the only advantage Chong Wei has is the lesson learn from WC2006, that's margin of errors is very small when come to winning or losing on this top level badminton.
Well, there have been upsets in the previous games. Will it happen on this one? I like to see the top 4 to move on though. Maybe LD will do the upset. Still a mouth watering match.
i guess INA will only has Taufik and Nova/Lily in Semifinal tomorrow.... huaaaaaaa and i also guess will only has Taufik in Final and then Taufik will lost to Lin Dan so no title to bring home to celebrate INA Independence Day what a degradation compare to last year's WC. hiks...hiks...
Counting down... ..limsy ah, the great excitement happens when your player wins...Apprehension is what happens prior to the start of the matches.. ..bro, there was no WC last yr...it was 2 yrs ago... My hunch for the INA squad is 3 representatives will advance to the Semis. Taufik to win over JOJ, Nova & Lilyana to win...and last but not least Sony will replay his 2007 win vs. LCW...
Yeah, indeed Fortunately they're seeding #2, so losing WR #1 position wasn't that bad, after all Just look at LYD/LHJ draws, they must face CHN great walls from round of 16 onwards But hey, don't forget that this Indian pair beat Nova/Lily in their previous encounters @ Korea Open SS, rite? So Nova/Lily must be careful, otherwise it could be nightmare for INA camp!
