    Hmmm..looks like no rematch of the Malaysian Open MD Final..

    ..(just finished reading all the posts)..
    Congrats to all the winners who have and who will advance to the Finals...:cool:
    .(i haven't seen the match & wished if i watched it) but Candra has been/is the weakest of the pair..Age is definitely a factor for the 2 veterans..i think with the last couple of results, they've shown Fu&Cai's familiarity playing against Tony&Candra..Their record playing against the 2 veterans are now 2-2, w/the last 2 coming for Fu&Cai's side, with both of them winning in 3 close sets..Whilst Tony&Candra's victories have come by straight sets. Anyways, the veterans will have another chance next week @ the Swiss Open & congrats to Fu&Cai!:cool:
    Tomorrow's MD Final should be one entertaining one as well...Hard to predict, but my gut feeling says Fu&Cai will prevail in a very close affair..If not, then get those hair shavers, clippers and scissors ready..because someone is going.......bald..hehe:p :D ;)

    Pi won. She is tired, and so hopefully, it will be easy for XXF.

    In terms of technique, Zhang Ning is the best among all but is aging, you can tell she made lots of errors when the rally got longer. Credit to Pi able to sustain the rally but Pi does need to improve the net play and attacking as no one can sustain this type of match for 2 consecutive days(SF and Final), XXF should have an relatively easy match tomorrow.
    Pi should try some "Zinxing" today :D
