Does anyone here know what nation Jie Yao is originally from?? I'm trying to find some back ground info on this player. But not having any luck. -Kelvin
It looks like the former all-england champ is showing her poise, and patience. Although I'm sure she might have screamed a few times from making a few errors... as it seems that's a trade mark of hers We're set for an interesting 3rd and deciding set between Camilla, and Yao Jie (is that the correct way of saying her name? or is it Jie Yao? lol I get confused trying to say Asian names in English )
China - used to be part of the national squad I think. Interesting style of stroke play. One of the more unorthodox overhead stroke technique. Looks difficult to get a lot of power from it, but she can still give the shuttle a good whack.
Camilla downed in the third set -8/11/-8 Denmark trailing the Netherlands 0-1 my favorite womens' doubles team from China Gao Ling, and Huang Sui are 6-4 in the first set vs CHIN Eei Hui - WONG Pei Tty of Malaysia.
YONEKURA Kanako 11-5/ 11-9 CHENG Shao Chieh CHIEN Yu Chin / CHENG Wen Hsing 15-10 NAKAYAMA Chikako / YO****OMI Keiko I don't know 2set score..
OK, China has beaten M'sia 3-0. Korea lead Indon 2-0 with 2nd set of 3rd match. 1st set won by Korea. Holland and Denmark tie 1-1. 2nd match also ran in 3 sets. 11-7, 5-11, 11-4 to Tine Rasmussen. Chinese Taipei tie Japan 1-1. 3rd match just begun.
Maria Kristin did many unforced errors. Looks like she played badly on net. The bird stucked on the net for many times. Her control was pretty dissappointing; many times the bird flew so far away from the court. Maybe she's under pressure coz Silvi was lost. Indon third single player didreally well tho. I couldn't watch the match coz I was being caught stealing my office hour to watch the second party but I followed the online scoring board. Looks like she really put a lot of pressure to the Korean. Good that she contributed 1 point to the Indo team so at least they won't be so discouraged. GO INDONESIA! (So bad...I dare not to watch the TV anymore, dont want to get caught for the second time, coz my colleague was reporting me to my direct manager! ARGH!)
