    The results of all your predictions will be known today... Have you seen her matches in thailand open final against saina.. Still you believe in pawing ratnachok. No wonder she may pull saina to three game match but that does not mean anything. She lacks energy when it comes to 3 game match. Lets see how it goes. Both are wonderful players. But i wanna see saina in winners podium of french open 2012.. Hee hee.

    If you feel the player has a chance of winning and the player just happens to be one of your favourite players... why not PAW? :D

    Seeded players WSX and Hu Yun were shown the exits by Eriko Hirose and Liew Daren (U) respectively in the round of 16.
    By her high standards, WSX has not been doing well this year and thus the drop in her ranking.
    Liew Daren and Chong Wei Feng are still Malaysia's best back-up players but their performance is far from consistent.
    SDK gave a walkover to Wong Wing Ki just as S Santoso did on day one. Compatriots AFA/NKM did the same for BYX/ZQX in the women's doubles. It's just unusual for the Indonesians to give so many walkovers in a tournament.

    Axelsen vs Zhengming.

    Hard to say. They already met twice and both matches were won by Zhengming.
    I believe Zhengming is doing it again today, but I hope for Axelsen! :)

    I'm a bit sad for Uncle Peter that his "probably" last match is against his compatriot JOJ.
    I think JOJ will beat Peter, but after Peters great match against Ajay yesterday, I hope that he maybe can do it again!

    Ok darren liew is playing again in the last 8. as usual, he never able to win the game in the last eight before, making him someone who never play in the semi before in SS tournament. i am thinkig that today is just the same.

    We have watched many KKK/TBH's painful defeats, particularly the one vs Boe/Mogensen at All-England 2011 final, I doubt that a defeat to Lee/Ko would affect us!

    Well,if you call her Inthanon ,like me, she'll perform for us today.:p:D Anyway, I really think she needs to take a good break, freshen herself,regather her thoughts,regroup,tweak her game and come back stronger. She's been playing almost non-stop for I don't know how long. But her CBSL experience is good for her, getting the much-needed competition and benefiting from some CHN coaching.

    Still a good rest will do her a lot of good, the better to raise her game another level. Let's cheer for her, Inthanon, go,go,go!

    Likewise, Chen Xiaojia has been inconsistent lately. She's facing an in-form 'Soldier Schenk' today who'd probably end her quest here.

    Wang Zengming I feel is improving, his opponent Axelsen is a young hopeful but Wang ZM should have the edge as in their previous two encounters. Somehow I sense he will get to the final,winning it is another matter as any of the other four players in the lower half are quite good too , on par with him and each of them impresses me in their own way.

    Actually, Sho Sasaki is the one I think will take the MS title, and Saina the WS.
