Nice to see LHI playing in his own country's Korea GP. I wish INA sends more Junior players in pelatnas.

MS - Lee Hyun Il (KOR)
WS - Bae Yeon Ju (KOR)
MD - Kim Gi Jung/Kim Sa Rang (KOR)
WD - Chang Ye Na/Kim So Young (KOR)
XD - Yoo Yeon Seong/Chang Ye Na (KOR)

It was all 5 KOR finals in last year edition and high possibility for home shuttlers to sweep 4 titles this time. WS is the only category that other participants can challenge local prowess as two leading KOR WS, Bae YJ and Sung JH skip their home GP.

Day-1 (10.00am local time, 4 courts) tournament will stage qualification round for all 5 disciplines => https://www.tournamentsoftware.com/sport/matches.aspx?id=872EF138-8B5F-457D-9920-E08D18F152B5

Mr Epic. Thanks!!

 

[badrad]

Thanks Mr.Epic!

LOL! I love the PiP of the hand-flipped scoreboard. See the players faces pop into larger view occasionally!

WOoooo! Trippy! It's actually Picture in a Picture in a Picture! When a player on the far side moves across the righthanded forehand side, that's like one of those weird mirror effects!

Day-2 (09.00am, 6 courts) => https://www.tournamentsoftware.com/...2EF138-8B5F-457D-9920-E08D18F152B5&d=20141105

The match has been started, MS players will play twice today (R/64 & R/32). Home fave Lee YD/Yoo YS was forced to rubber games against unheralded TPE pair Chen CJ/Wan CH, 21-10 / 17-21 / 21-15.

 

[CLELY]

First round major upset, XD top-seed Ko SH/Kim HN was sent packing by JPN Kazuno/Miyauchi, 18-21 / 20-22.

 

[cobalt]

Wow! There are players from Nepal, Egypt, Sri Lanka, Brunei, and one player from Trinadad & Tobago!

 

[ngkt67]

Korea there is it now in winter time, sure very cold out there...

 

[CLELY]

Another top-seed suffered first round exit, TPE Pai Hsiao Ma lost to Ayumi Mine, Japanese WS shuttlers look good here, Sato, Okuhara and Ohori also prevailed.

 

[ngkt67]

Liew Daren as second seed just ousted by unknown HK players...

Liew Daren as second seed just ousted by unknown HK players...

Terrible result for Daren. This should not be so.

 

[CLELY]

The defending champion Lee Hyun Il is still hot fave here. Some KOR back-ups like Lee Dong Keun, Jeon Hyeok Jin and Heo Kwang Hee are expected to show some improvement. Let alone former WJC Hong Ji Hoon who's far from impressive at senior stage.

KSH/KHN lost..bad days going for KHN

Another top-seed suffered first round exit, TPE Pai Hsiao Ma lost to Ayumi Mine, Japanese WS shuttlers look good here, Sato, Okuhara and Ohori also prevailed.

It was much expected... HMP is not in her element...
She is just out of the consideration now..her rankings is also unjustified this days
