Quite heavy casualties from yesterday's matches, with all the MS players out MEN'S DOUBLES R16 Rendra Wijaya/Fran Kurniawan vs Jacob Chemnitz/Mikkel Delbo Larsen -- Rendra/Fran were impressive in their victory over the 8th seed yesterday and they should take the match again today. Andrew Bowman/Kristian Roebuck vs Rian Sukmawan/Yonathan Suryatama Dasuki -- it was a hard match for Rian/Yoke tomorrow and today's match is also tricky. But, I believe they should be able to win today. WOMEN'S SINGLES R16 Ekaterina Ananina vs Adriyanti Firdasari -- the RUS player is dangerous and Firda needs to be at her best to beat her. The INA player has a slight edge. WOMEN'S DOUBLES R16 Gabrielle White/Mariana Agathangelou vs Jo Novita/Greysia Polii -- should be a breeze for Jo/Greysia against the unknown ENG pair. Shinta Mulia Sari/Vanessa Neo Yu Yan vs Meiliana Jauhari/Shendy Puspa Irawati -- Mel/Shendy should be more powerful than Yulianti/Richi and they need to rely on their attacks to beat the SIN pair. MIXED DOUBLES R16 Kristoff Hopp/Birgit Overzier vs Tantowi Ahmad/Yulianti -- facing the 4th seed today, I think Tantowi/Yulianti should just enjoy their match and gather as much match experience against the experienced German pair. A win will be a bonus.
Tough early hours for us in the Pacific time zone in North America. Anyone notice how well Scott Evans been doing lately? From that badminton hotbed Ireland! . Glad to have WACHA back in action. Hope he doesn't disappoint.
