that dosen't count theorethically, WMC can defeat ZN and ZL... She defeated Pi and Xu and XXF which all have defeated ZN and ZL before? i think Korean player stand a better chance... their long seeding and ranking is because of injuries...
I think LYD/JJS can win it.LYD is a very good doubles player.MK/HS are looking solid too.But, I hope the Koreans will win.For XD...I think ZB/GL have a slight advantage over NW/LN.I'll be rooting for INA though.For MS....LD would be a back-to-back world champion.He's looking very strong here.WD....I cannot predict...but I want ZJW/YW to win it.WC will be the winner in WS.She is more experienced.
I don't really caRE for WD (for sure China), and WS (HKG), or MD (INA), The great matches ar coming : it Always great to see ZB/GL vs NW/LY to play in the final. I hope INA can win it to take a revenge on previous matches. The other match LD/SDW..... wow I hadly find this two men play in the final, so I think this will be the greatest match tomorrow. I hope someone can sell a full DVD of WC2007 cause I can't watch the match. I wanna watch big surprise and also Quarter,Semis, and FInal. Can someone sell it through ebay ? I think there is someone from Msya that sell it
head to head isnt a really good representation: Zhou Mi head to head to XXF or ZN is superior, but no one says Zhou Mi is better than XXF or ZN.... the problem with head to head is that results like 10 years ago still get tabulated and taken against some very improved player.
it all comes down to this.... should i propose a challenge do we dare change our names ala bananakid if the ones we think will win lose? (just a suggestion, don't have to take it seriously)
MS: LD,maybe in three sets!!!! If LD can't do well in first set,Sony have good chance to be a new world champion!!! WS: I don't care! WD: YW/ZJW MX: ZB/GL MD: JJS/LYD VS Markis/Hendra (50% ---- 50%)
Semifinal notes: Indonesia did very well today by winning 3 SF matches and only lost one. China did not do very well when they had to fight against other countries player with 2-3 scores. But at least they still had chance to win 4 titles tomorrow. Choong/Lee despite of very large and noisy crowd supports again cannot goes all the way to final. Wang Chen play very well indeed. And Japan as well as many predicted, stop at SF. But 2 bronzes are very good from none last year. SF matches, I predict 8 right from 10 matches. Not bad.
Final prediction: (Again, my prediction based on if each opponents play their best in final) MS: Lin Dan VS Sonny After tons and tons of upset here, the dependable Lin Dan reach final and had a shot to defend his title last year. And I had to said this is probably one of the most smoothest tournament for him. So far he always win in straight sets and never threaten at all. Other part, Sonny play unbelievable well since R16. But despite all of that, I don’t think Sonny had enough weapon to win over Lin Dan. His only chance is to play his best and hoping Lin Dan had a nerve suddenly and play below his usual level. LD will win in 2 tight sets. WS: Wang Chen VS Zhu Lin Wang Chen did very well. She managed to play very effective now without too many useless attack but deadly. Zhu Lin as always is very dependable and improving. But I think with her experience, WC will win her first WC title in 2 sets. MD: Markis/Hendra VS Jung/Lee Both pairs do very well last year but struggling this year. Now both pairs return to their best form. Who will win? Depend on who play the less mistakes. If Markis made lots and lots of mistakes, Indonesia will lost. Other hand, if JJS try too much and end up made mistakes, Korea will lost. Markis/Hendra will win in 3 sets. WD: Gao/Huang VS Yang/Zhang We rarely see this pair meet this year cause of a moment break up where Gao play with Zhang JW and Yang wei pair with ZTT. Now they are back and back with style. Again for so many many times, they meet again in final showdown. Gao probably will try the hardest cause if she can win WD and MX titles, she will be write in history as the player with the most gold medals in World Championship. Currently, Park Joo Bong hold the record with 5 golds, (MD and MX) then Gao with 4 golds. (WD and MX) Gao/Huang will win in 3 sets. MX: Gao/Zheng VS Nova/Butet What a journey for Zheng Bo/Gao Ling. Paired up(again) in Asian Games and got gold. Since then they always win all the events they enter except Singapore Open if I am not wrong. Meanwhile Nova/Butet back at their usual form. I really want Nova/Butet to win. But the problem is Nova cause when he started to made mistakes usually it will be in a row and he will mentally collapsed. And he did not had a complete skill as Flandi had. I wish PBSI pair Butet with Flandi who I think is the best men mixed doubles Indonesia had right now and not Nova. The only silver lining is hoping Gao Ling a bit tired after today very long 2 matches and slow her movement in final. Otherwise, Gao/Zheng will win in 2 tight sets. Overall China will win 3 gold, Indonesia and Hong Kong 1 gold. But all still can happen. China maybe will go home with only 1 gold and Indonesia with 3 or maybe none. All depend on the players themselves. May the best win in final!
With your analysis or styles..GL/HS should not win WD.......it will be YW/JZW also will not ZL but WC...if based on what you said.....
Will we see another suprise.. ...in tomorrow's Final??.. MS..LinDan could be the back to back winner this time, esp. with the straight sets win over BCL. While Sony might need to find a way to recuperate himself after that 3-setter marathon vs. CY. Or maybe, Hendrawan has turned Sony's mentality into a World Champion mentality??.. For MD..IMO, i think whichever pair can control the net game will probably be the winner. Perhaps all those hardwork & training, that have been put forth by INA's Kido&Setiawan, is coming to fruition. WS..We'll see a rematch of this yr's Indonesian Open. Can Wang Chen do it one more time against Zhu Lin??.. WD...another rematch of these 2 soon-to-be-legendary pairs.. XD...Tis the Battle of the last 2 World Champions...Can Nova step up to the plate and prove his WC win 2 yrs ago wasn't a fluke?? Or will we see the same old Nova??.. Stay tuned and find out...
No analysis, just my hunch: MS: Sony Dwi Kuncoro bt Dan Lin MD: M. Kido/H. Setiawan bt J.S. Jung/Y.D. Lee WS: Lin Zhu bt Chen Wang WD: L. Gao/S. Huang bt W. Yang/J.W. Zhang XD: L. Natsir/N. Widianto bt L. Gao/B. Zheng
MS - Sony DWI KUNCORO MD - Markis KIDO, Hendra SETIAWAN WS - Chen Wang WD - Bo ZHENG, Ling GAO XD - Sui, HUANG, Ling GAO
