Sigh...Simon is still inconsistent. He lost easily to Ng Wei in straight sets 18-21, 13-21. Ng Wei even had a 10-1 lead in the second set
QF- MEN'S SINGLES LIN DAN (CHN) vs NG WEI (HKG) MUHAMMAD HAFIZ HASHIM (MAS) vs LEE HYUN ILL (KOR)- The Korean is doing well, he prepared well lol TAUFIK HIDAYAT (INA) vs BAO CHUNLAI (CHN)- I don't think TH will have enough to beat BCL LEE CHONG WEI (MAS) vs BOONSAK PONSANA (THA)
Agree with you, but I have a feeling that TH will win, it would be a tight match if TH fights all-out. BCL has been very consistent, but TH must win. Hopefully this match will be on-air, and someone would record it.
They should've played Sony instead, poor Sony, he's been there idle as he was the third single in the team event. I think Simon's career won't last for too long.
@indra, your dream for Indonesia to win 4 gold already out! In WS, both Nana and Firda lost today. Nana lost to ZN. (we already predicted it) But Firda lost to Lee Yun Hwa who she beat in team event is really sad.
I agree with you, except that Lee HI will almost surely beat Hafiz...So I modified the prediction to:
For TH, I wonder what excused he can give right now? In R16 now he face Park Sung Hwan. Now the score is 21-18, (THwin) 19-21 (he lost) and 3 set lead 10-7. Really strage considering TH had a day off yesterday and PSH had to fight three sets against CJ yesterday. If TH win today, I wonder how about tomorrow match with possibly BCL?
Mean while Lee Yun Hwa managed to play three set with WMC and she lead the last set 6-4. Maybe the KOrean girls got motivated after seeing the boys fight in final against China.
Park is givng TH all he can handle. Close 3rd game so far. As for Simon, well... say no more, steamrolled by Ng Wei.
What a tense moment! (For TH fans) After reaching 14-11, PSH managed to catch 2 points to 14-13 for TH.
A tight game for TH, but he should win. TH's chance against BCL tomorrow - if he wins today - is 49 - 51 for BCL, but I hope he would win, well, he will have to beat PSH first today, although he's strugling to close the game with a win.
Also of note, Xing of SIN too out Mori (JAP) rather comfortably and the 2 scratch MAS XD pairs have moved into the QF. TH 15-13 Park Hwang 11-9 WMC
