Frankly, I'd expected a 3-setter between Saina-TTY. Well done Taiphoon. She will take the title tomorrow.
Absolutely devastating play by TTY to crush her opponent. Tai's a strange player, though, there are many times when she becomes so unfocused and her playing turns too loose. At this rate, I don't see how she can beat even an inexperienced Chinese player tomorrow, although I will be rooting for her. Nehwal needs to brush up on her skills, and like someone else mentioned, she's looking chunky and needs to shed a few pounds. Her uppityness in refusing to change the shuttle didn't do her any favours this time either. LOL!
Yao Xue already far exceeded my expectations. Imagine the third best of the CHN second stringers here in the final of a SS. I think it'll be a match too many for her tomorrow. TTY is definitely the clear favourite. I seem to recollect Yao Xue as the one who once defeated Tine Baun in a CHN tournament 1-2 years back. After that she hasn't shown any commendable result. Who knows, this might be her big break; some players just rise to the occasion at the least expected time.
Hendra and Ahsan won the match 21 12 21 11 impresive.. setiawan is such a killer at the net. he bullied the chinese youngsters
21-12, 21-11 Hendra/Ahsan to their first ever Super Series final in my sight, CHN MD pair seems not motivated today. or these week experiments from CHN team do not work well. Next, Praveen Jordan on TV2 court
Really disappointed with China MD the past number of tournaments. Does Chinese MD have any future? Hong Wei, Shen Ye, Chai Biao, Zhang Nan, Liu Xiaolong, Qiu Zihan. Can any of these guys rise up to be champions? In all of the CBA, do they really have nobody else who can play MD?
I can see you residing in Australia.. Where are your players anyway??? Gone to holidays???.. Sorry to say.. Nobody from Australia can ever come to semifinals in next 10 years.. Ha ha..
