Djarum Indonesia Open Super Series Premier 2013 - Day 6: Semifinal (15th June)

It's curtain for me. 7 hours of solid badminton, minus the CHN XD vs CHN XD.
Good night.
See you guys tomorrow at about 1.00 pm Jakarta time.
Hope the titles will be shared among the 5 nations.
 
Shin Baek Choel did alrite, but didn't really open any chances for Yoo Yeon Seong.

Yoo has a very threatening smash, but he got hardly any clean hits since Ko and Lee didn't lift it for him. Shin needs to find a way to add pressure and find chances to set up. He didn't create much opportunities for their pair while Ko and Lee did more.

I see good hope with Shin / Yoo pair. I reckon Yoo is already very good as he is. Shin on the other hand needs to work on his game individually. Yoo is a smart and brilliant player, and so is Shin, but a little short in skill.

I'm looking for the video of LXR vs Bae Youn Joo match played yesterday. Wonder how she dealt with a defensive,rallying stroke player with soft touches.

Tomorrow's LXR vs JS match is going to be another fast and furious attacking game just like today's, should be great to watch as a prelude to the world championship,perhaps.

And I believe YipPY has more or less become a force to be reckoned with from now on, the way she played just now against LXR and assuming she's become more consistent unlike before.

LXR was dominating BYJ throughout the entire match. No much BYJ could do to fight back LXR... LXR just had all the antidotes in the QF match! Sorry, unable to help about the video ;)

i think Yip Pui Yin's explosive aggression has chance to beat ANY player nowadays.... wondering why her rank is so low (25th but should be up after 2013 DIO)
Only her H2H record against LXR is still quite skewed: 0-8 incl. today's match, and 1-5 vs SN

Damn they start too early tomorrow but I am really considering getting up at 7 am to watch the finals... :D
 
i can't believe tommy lost to marc zwiebler in front of his home crowd.... :-S....dang

maybe his stamina finally ran out in the semis...
 
Mark is a very inconvenient player to play against, with a style of his own. Tommy just couldn't start dictating his own pace to the game.

You should be thankful. ;) The Lee -Zweibler match will be starting at ~0300h for my locale.
Thank goodness BWF is so quick putting up the videos for replay. :)
 
Slightly better display by Hayom yesterday, I think. Weakness are still there, but attempt of change was made. Hope this is a start for him.
