BOY'S SINGLES R16 Adi Pratama vs Vountus Indra Mawan -- the more experience MAS junior will take it. Arif Nandang vs Lim Fang Yang -- ditto. BOY'S DOUBLES R16 Katsutoshi Noguchi/Yuta Yamasaki vs Wifqi Windarto/Afiat Yuris Wirawan -- the 5th-seed should win. GIRL'S SINGLES R16 Maria Febe vs Eorn Hye Won -- Febe managed to beat a Korean girl today, however, I will just keep my expectation low. Porntip Buranaprasertsuk vs Pia Zebadiah -- Pia should take it, but, expect a tight match. GIRL'S DOUBLES R16 Richi Dili Puspita/Debby Susanto vs Sarah Walker/Panuga Riou -- the hopes are high on the Asian Junior champion, but, their unconvincing form in the team event is a worry They should progress though.... Reni Rosi Hendarni/Krishabella vs Uchida Shizuka/Ayane Kurihara -- should be the end of the road for the other INA pair. MIXED DOUBLES R32 Tan Wee Kiong/Woon Khe Wei vs Wifqi Windarto/Pia Zebadiah -- the odds are on the top-seed, but, Pia's experience could help the INA pair to score an upset perhaps? Kim Ki Jung/Choi Hye In vs Afiat Yuris Wirawan/Debby Susanto -- a tough match for Afiat/Debby as well. The Korean pair has an edge. Josche Zurwonne/Dana Kaufhold vs Muhd Ulinuha/Richi Dili Puspita -- with Richi's experience, the INA pair should take it. Hendra Mulyono/Nadia Emanuella Gideon vs Philip Welker/Fabienne Deprez -- I don't know much abt the INA pair, so, I hope they can win. The mixed doubles R16 will also be played tomorrow night.
Indian Players in Action WD - SikKi Reddy/Thulasi P.C (vs) Ching Yung Tien/Kai Hsin Chiang [TPE] - Sikki and Thulasi are the lone surviving womens dbls pair after Nithya S/Ashwini K were knocked out in Rd 1. They havent played much with each other and go into this match as underdogs. SUPRISE US GIRLS!! MS - Saurabh Verma (vs) Huan Gao [CHN] - Saurabh "the 3 game kid" , has come thru two tough 3 game matches in his previous rounds. In both the matched he lost the 1st and went on to take the next two, but any such antic will bury him against the Chinese. He is a confidence player and looking forward toa good match.

So far, the only Malaysian eliminated is Tee Jing Yi who lost to a Japanese. Tee is still very young and has at least one more (probably 2 or 3) WJC in her. Usually, Malaysians will start dropping en masse in R16 and QF stages.

Yeah, good job for INA junior singles so far, Pia-Maria Febe has defeated their opponents also BS Adi Pratama and Arif Nandang enter into quarter. Tough hurdles for Pia and Maria Febe tomorrow, they will fight against CHN's second seed Liu Xin and Singaporean Gu Juan respectively.
yea very sad :crying: Pray for Arif now. Hope he'll pull through. Champion! But not bad for MAS BD, XD and GD, rite? Wonderful day
Derek Wong doing well againts Chen Long. Now trailing 12-15 Edit... now 14-19 not soo good now 15-20.... almost over 1st set 1st set to chen long... 21-15
Second set : Chen 5, Derek 3 now 8-5 now 9-6 11-6 .... so fast 12-8 derek trying to fight back 17-8........ no hope i think 18-12 18-13..... a miracle maybe?
I'm watching them too. To be honest, I'm not impressed with Chen's net play. He made so many mistakes. Net play is so important in mens singles nowadays. Or maybe he just isnt playing well today? :/
hehe, I'm not in NZ either I wonder if Chen Long will graduate into the China Senior MS team. not many do!
