MEN'S SINGLES Kaspar Oedum vs Ronald Susilo (MATCH OF THE ROUND) -- Ronald has performed well so far and there's no reason why he can't win the title here. It could be an all-Singaporean Final on Sunday P. Kashyap vs Kendrick Lee -- ditto for Kendrick. He was brilliant in his victory over Bjorn Joppien even when he was a set down. He has to be careful though since his Indian opponent has been the dark horse in this tournament MEN'S DOUBLES Michael Logosz/Robert Mateusiak vs Rian Sukmawan/Eng Hian (MATCH OF THE ROUND) -- the second tough match for the Djarum pair. It could go to rubber-set and Eng Hian's experience should help. Mathias Boe/Joachim Fischer Nielsen vs Hendra A. Gunawan/Joko Riyadi -- technically, the Pelatnas no 3 MD pair can win...and I hope they do so! WOMEN'S SINGLES Xu Huaiwen vs Wang Linling -- the German player is far too experienced for the unknown Chinese player! Petra Overzier vs Maria Kristin Yulianti (MATCH OF THE ROUND) -- another tough match for Maria after her surprise win over Pi Hongyan today. I am putting my money on her to reach the final WOMEN'S DOUBLES Rani Mundiasti/Endang Nur Sugianti vs Carina Mette/Birgit Overzier (MATCH OF THE ROUND) -- tomorrow's match should be slightly easier since the INA pair has done the hard task of beating the no 1 seed. Katrin Piotrowski/Michaela Peiffer vs Jiang Yanmei/Li Yujia -- the Singaporean pair has the edge! MIXED DOUBLES Robert Mateusiak/Nadiezda Kostiuczyk vs Devin Lahardi/Yunita Tetty -- yet another tough task after two easy matches. The Polish pair is ranked World No 10. Devin/Yunita have to play their best game to beat the no 1 seed. Hendri Kurniawan Saputra/Li Yujia vs Daniel Shirley/Joanna Quay Swee Ling (MATCH OF THE ROUND) -- the Kiwi/Malaysian pairing have a good chance of winning the tournament this week, esp with the experience of Daniel Shirley. But, I am putting my money on the Singaporean pair!
Hi BadMania, Thank's for the updates as always. Cheers for all Indonesians that make it to the semifinal. I hope they will make it to the final. Btw, where do you watch these games? Is it shown live in HK? or do you watch in on the internet?
if indo player can be a champs in all round exc. MS of coz.. it would be greatt.... something rarely nowadays hehhehhehe
hey CTJCAD How can we watch the game in USA?? As the games are around Friday, 2006-10-27 13:00 Quarterfinals ab 21:30 Players' Night Saturday, 2006-10-28 15:00 Semifinals Sunday, 2006-10-29 12:00 Finals So these denmark times are midnight for US right...
Actually it's gonna be tomorrow morning... ..the link i posted above should direct you straight to the website to watch the webcast live, then select English and voila...yes, those are Germany's local time, which should be +9 ahead of U.S. PDT/MST(or just add 3 hrs to the local GER time)..So if it's 15:00 pm Germany time, then it's 6 am PDT/MST U.S. time..
Devin/Yunita lost! Gee, i didn't know the polish were this good... Anyway, to clear my doubts, is the Bitburger Open held in Luxembourg or Germany? Isn't Saarlandhalle in Germany? Why is it called Bitburger Luxembourg Open then?
Xu Huaiwen (GER) beat Wang Lining (CHN). Now Ronald Susilo is facing Kasper Oedum (DEN). Score 16-14. Jiang/Li (SIN) is meeting with Piotrowski/Peiffer (GER), 1st set won by SIN's pair 21-15 and 2nd set so fast 21-6
Ronald Susilo (SIN) won 1st set 21-18 and continuing to 2nd set 8-7. Maria Kristin now preparing to face WC'06's semifinalist Overzier (GER). Hope that Maria can handle her mental. Her mental I think is her weakness. Technically, Maria can get top 20 players.
Come on Maria! I know you can win this match. This is good achievement for her after she almost thrown out by PBSI.
It's only called Bitburger Open... The Saarland is in Germany, Saarlandhalle is the name of the stadium...
Come on Maria! Don't make so many mistake. I still believe that u can win this match and go to final!
