Yup, I saw the same thing, Hafiz beat PSH 21-15, 21-18, will vs Andre tomm. Uncle Wong also won, will face one Taiwan player I never heard of bf. If WCH win, then will meet Taufik in semis. Hoon/Ong beat Fang/Lee, not really a surprise to me, they meet HK MD tomm. Uncles CTF/LWW will meet Tony/Howard...again, haha. Gan/TBS also thru.
A little surprised, Tommy beat Kashyap. I thought Mr. Hauge said he no longer has motivation... BTW, thank to Mr. Sandy for uploading the result.
WS : Lydia will vs Japan's Sayaka Sato tomm Msia WD : GLY/NHL will be up against GL/Wei Yili tomm XD : CPS/GLY will vs Rijal/Lilyana
Thanks @Sandy ... So, INA already secured one SF spot from MS Best of luck for all INA players Hmm also quite interesting: battles of MAS vs US uncles, for the 3rd times in a row
live on Astro - that sounds good, I hope someone will record it and put it into the net for the poor of us not having Astro on local TV
Yeah at least for SF and Finale we'll be no longer clueless bout this tourney This is GPG level tourney, but seems not so well organized, no livescores etc. Not good at all for baddy to become popular worldwide Oh btw, aside than Astro we can watch it live via GDTV And Videoland sports channel As for videos maybe we can search 'em later on via Youtube, simplybadminton.blogspot.com, or another site Or maybe anyone here mind and care to upload 'em, please? Hehehe
HH wins 21-15 21-18 over PSH Heyy, remember this is Mr. Yoyo you're babblin about Sometimes ups, sometimes down Aside than that, PSH not doin' so well lately, IMO Hope Andre won't caught up into yoyoing rhyme tomorrow
I think Hayom has a 45% chance of winning over Taufik... But yeah... I agree with badMania that Taufik has a 55% chance of winning... Taufik is still a master in INA badminton... Andre also has a 49% chance of winning over Hafiz... Both Hayom and Andre only have an edge in physical conditioning over their opponents. Technically, Taufik and Hafiz are excellent pros... Basic strategy: tire them! Maybe you'll have a good chance in game 3...
This will be a very good test for Andre (now is PBSI third single) and Tommy S (PBSI fourth single) to test their skill for Thomas Cup next year. Specially for Andre cause he will probably face HH as third MS if Ina play Malasyia in Thomas Cup.
Hoping Indonesia will get titles from pelatnas players. But I am predicting the titles will come from ex pelatnas players like Taufik, Luluk and Vita M.
