Wow. HU YUN is playing! One of the veteran whom i love to watch. Sent from my SM-G600FY using Tapatalk
The resilient player combined with stronger stamina Kanta Tsuneyama prevails against the explosive style Lee Cheuk Yiu.
Woah, Jun Hao at one stage, left behind 2-9, managed to score 7 straight point from 14-19 to score the win 21-19.
So Lu Guangzu survived R1 against Brice Leverdez in three sets, not too bad. Next, he's' up against Kenta Nishimoto. Huang Yuxiang beat Darren Liew and will face another MAS player, Cheong Wei Feng. Qiao Bin couldn't get past Tommy Sugiarto whose fine form continues. For CHN WS, Zhang Yiman is the sole survivor, disappointing. Doubt she can go deep, not even QFs - her next opponent, Sonia Cheah, who defeated Nichaon Jindapol, is no mean player.
