2012 Malaysia Open SS: Wed 11-Jan (Round-of-32)

luckily, uncle wong gives up his place in thomas cup. if not, it is just a waste of time only.

 

What's wrong with Simon?
Lost very easily in first set...unbelievable!

 

This morning I hope Simon win 1-0 retired
Now he left behind from Ajay 9-21 3-2

 

Just a wild guess...

Simon is having stomachache due to too much eating of Roti Channai with curry sauce

 

ZQX can really hammer it while BYX has a sweet front court game. CHN 13-7

 

Simon is still trailing 10-11 at the interval, despite having a 9-5 lead just now.

How can we count on you as INA's no 1 MS when you even struggle against India's Ajay Jayaram? Sigh....

 

Instead this happened

Once again....a 3 pts lead at 14-11 disappeared just like that

 

I will not be surprised if Ajay can take this game, looking at Simon's form so far.

 

Simon manages to take the second-set 21-18. Not convincing really....

 

uncle WCH lost to Spainish Wolverine...!!
time for him to retire and do coaching...

 

Simon leads 11-7 at the interval of the decider set.

 

Oh no, Reiko about to be knocked out by the Thais. JPN close to 18-19

 

simon-ajay: 11-7

please....

 

Relentless smashing attack by the HKG girls and they finally kill it after about 8 smashes. HKG 15-12

 

Reiko levels at 20-20.

 

Once again...the 4 pts lead is gone in just minutes.

 

Simon never makes it easy for himself.

 

What a crazy long rally. They didn't have any energy left to smash but CHN eventually forced a net kill. 14-16

 

Another 4 pts lead now at 16-12. Let's see if this can be maintained.
