MEN'S SINGLES
Holvy De Pauw vs Kaspar Oedum

Chetan Anand vs Ronald Susilo -- yet another tough match for Ronald. I hope he continues to go all the way!

P. Kashyap vs Przemyslaw Wacha -- the Indian player has upsetted Sho Sasaki and Lee Tsuen Tseng. I wouldn't be surprised if he wins again.

Kendrick Lee Yen Hui vs Bjorn Joppien (MATCH OF THE ROUND) -- similarly for Kendrick, a very tough match....let's see if he can win this one :cool:

MEN'S DOUBLES
Michael Logosz/Robert Mateusiak vs Ashley Brehaut/Aji Sindoro Basuki

Rian Sukmawan/Eng Hian vs Kristof Hopp/Ingo Kindervater (MATCH OF THE ROUND) -- the first real test for Rian/Eng Hian. But, they should win!

Mathias Boe/Joachim Fischer Nielsen vs Svetoslav Stojanov/Mihail Popov -- with Boe's presence, the unseeded Danish pair should progress.

Hendra A. Gunawan/Joko Riyadi vs Mike Beres/William Milroy -- a slighty "easier" task for Hendra/Joko compared to yesterday's. Again, they are expected to win.

WOMEN'S SINGLES
Xu Huaiwen vs Wenny Rahmawati

Sara Persson vs Wang Linling

Jeanine Cicognini vs Petra Overzier

Maria Kristin Yulianti vs Pi Hongyan (MATCH OF THE ROUND) -- from being nearly out of Pelatnas to now probably the best performer in recent months with a QF placing here. A win will be a bonus for Maria, esp since Pi was exhausted after a tiring match yesterday.

WOMEN'S DOUBLES
Kamila Augustyn/Nadiezda Kostiuczyk vs Rani Mundiasti/Endang Nur Sugianti (MATCH OF THE ROUND) -- a tough match for the INA pair. If they get pass this one, they might even go all the way to the final.

Neli Boteva/Katja Michalowsky vs Carina Mette/Birgit Overzier

Katrin Piotrowski/Michaella Peiffer vs Rachel Van Cutsen/Paulien Van Dooremalen

Jeanine Cicognini/Johanna Goliszweski vs Jiang Yanmei/Li Yujia -- Jiang/Li were severely tested yesterday by the Indian pair in 3 very close sets and winning only in deuce. Today's opponent should be easier :cool:

MIXED DOUBLES
Robert Mateusiak/Nadiezda Kostiuczyk vs Gao Huang/Liu Xin

Devin Lahardi/Yunita Tetty vs Tim Dettmann/Annekatrin Lillie -- should be a breeze for Devin/Yunita.

Jurgen Wouters/Paulien Van Dooremalen vs Hendri Kurniawan Saputra/Li Yujia -- a tricky but manageable tie for the Singaporean pair.

Daniel Shirley/Joanna Quay Swee Ling vs Ingo Kindervater/Katrin Piotrowski (MATCH OF THE ROUND) -- I am putting my money on the dark-horse.
 
We may get an All Indonesian final in the MD here even though one of them is not from Pelatnas. If Hendra/Joko win today they will face Mathias Boe/partner, right? I thought Mathias Boe's partner is Carsten Mogensen? Oh well, hope the Indo pair won.

I think Carsten Mogensen is still injured :cool:

It will be difficult to beat Matthias Boe and his new partner. Similar, Rian Sukmawan/Eng Hian will not find it easy to beat Michael Logosz/Robert Mateusiak.

An all-Indonesian Final will be very very good :D
 
Hmmm...a good start by Maria Kristin. The game was at 5-5 when she took 6 straight points to lead 11-5 at the interval. Then, it was Pi's turn to get 5 straight points to narrow the lead to 11-10. Maria extended her lead to 16-11 and it was no turning back. She won the set 21-17.
 
What an incredible result today...Maria Kristin Yulianti has just beaten the no 2 seed Pi Hongyan in straight sets 21-17, 21-11. One possible reason is Pi was exhausted from yesterday's marathon match.
 
so.. she'll face chinese in the semi final.. very good result for her... will she take over the 1st spot again?
hehehhehe
could be.. but pia sebaidah and aprillia will fight for it as well
oh no.. she'll face the 3/4 seed germans

She should stand a chance against Petra Overzier.

Looking some tournament in past, Maria is the most consistance player among Firda & Fransisca. She also had better h2h against Firda or Fransisca. But Maria is "slow action" person, look liked Hendrawan prefer to players who have high spirit and brave. Changing of WS coach to Sandiarto, hopefully make INA WS better.

I have noticed that too :cool:
She was the best performing WS in the Indonesia Open, reaching R16.
Now, she is in the semi-finals...with a chance to reach her first major final.
Let's see how she perform tomorrow against Petra Overzier.
 
The first 10 QF matches have been completed and the next match will only start 1 hr later :cool:

Here's the semi-finalists so far:
MEN'S SINGLES -- Kaspar Oedum, Ronald Susilo

MEN'S DOUBLES -- Mathias Boe/Joachim Fischer Nielsen

WOMEN'S SINGLES -- Huang Linling, Petra Overzier, Maria Kristin Yulianti

WOMEN'S DOUBLES -- Carina Mette/Birgit Overzier

MIXED DOUBLES -- Robert Mateusiak/Nadiezda Kostiuczyk, Hendri Kurniawan Saputra/Li Yujia, Daniel Shirley/Joanna Quay Swee Ling
 
Kendrick Lee Yen Hui has marched into the semi-finals after beating the second-seed Bjorn Joppien 12-21, 21-17, 21-18. It's likely going to be an all-Singaporean final :cool:
