many of the new crop of thai ladies players are pretty!!... eg tall doubles player puttita supajirakul and this girl.. i dont know her name (picture courtesy of jane piyatat from her fb page)
If someone can keep me updated with the first XD match at court 3 I will be very thankful. All I know is that Ko Sung Hyun / Kim Ha Na lose the match and Zheng Siwei / Chen Qingchen won the match. Can someone update with me some details about the match? I mean how come the Korean XD lose? Did they play badly?
Annoying... How can one put the best matches on court3???? Idiots really Anyway Ko/Kim struggled to get a good start in 2016 even though this CHN youngsters can trouble almost anyone!! Still I don´t like to see that second stringers or youngsters upset established top pairs so often (yesterday LEE/CHang YN also lost). Shows the strenght of CHN badminton only intresting match today on the tv courts is only Koo/Tan vs. Kims imo... Would have liked to see the two MD and the MX at least from court 3....
Hu Yun escaped. That first game made the difference. Hu Yun took the first game 23-21. Both of them shared the remaining 2 games with 21-11 each.
Quite true. Zheng Siwei is a fast rising star in doubles, his partnership with either Li Yinhui or Chen Qingchen is a giant killer and they will very soon make their mark on the world stage, I believe.
Seems that exciting matches have been put at court 3 instead. Then sad to say I couldn't watch the match played by my idol Lee Hyun Il. Oh wow at such an old age he is still able to win in tournaments. Congratulations Lee Hyun Il.
Just managed to checked the scores. It seems that the matches for today has finally ended. Managed to catch the last MD match at court 1 and WD match at court 3 via live scores. And then what a shock I got. When I managed to catch the live scores the WD and MD are already about to end. The score for the MD was a close score 21-18 21-18. Tough fought match indeed. Then the live scores of the WD match really gave me a shock. When I look at the live scores, the third set of the match is just about to start. Then the scores went up to 11-4 with the Malaysian WD Vivian Hoo Kah Mun / Woon Khe Wei leading the scores. I don't know what has happened to the Thailand WD. Then the score shoot up to 16-5. Amazing score indeed and finally the Malaysian WD won the third set 21-9. Wow I never expect to see such scores with huge marginal win today. Amazing.
Good to see Sameer Verma giving a run for money to Hu Gun! But alas the same old story, I have saw this kinda a scoreline so often that sometimes I wonder is there a single player who can win against Hu yun in the decider, also is there any player on the circuit whom Hu Yun can beat in straight sets!! It has become a trend for the old chap
Seriously SJH is a very determined player her dogged spirits are commendable. I always thought she play lots of badminton but this year she seems to be running on heavy adrenaline rush. One can always witness that "lifeless as death" expression on SJH's face every match and yet you'll watch her playing in the next tourney She seems to be in love with Asian Airlines
CHN, KOREA, and THAI dominate so far... As usual only 1 MD Ahsan/Hendra, the sure thing, still there. Surprisingly MAS WD Vivian/Khe Wei Woon and XD GLY/CPS are still in play. Go Vivian/Khe Wei Woon... next up is TYT/YY which is so hard
Man... The time is so hard for me to catch this live. It is 5:00 PM in Bangkok which means 3:00 AM in USA West Coast. Is it on Youtube?
You can catch the replay later from YouTube. I guess it is better that you only watch the match later at YouTube. I believe there will be no point for you to purposely wake up at 3.00 am just to watch this match. I guess and predict that both ahsan / setiawan will win this match. Both players are currently at their best.
