I would question the logic of forcing CH to give a walkover to BCL, especially since CH has been doing much better than Bao recently. Let us look at 2006 China Open, where CH beat Bao in the final in straight sets. Then the head to head stats against Gade from last year, CH 1:1 Gade, and Bao lost to Gade without a single win... why would LYB have more faith in Bao than CH if he DID order the walkover??? The bright side is that Peter Gade now has a much better chance of winning the 1st tournament of this year if Bao is the winner of the other semi-final... Gade for the win!!!
I had seen Vita play before....this is new partnership...I disagree with you...if they reach SF...it means they are good....it takes time to form partnership....
the momentum is with INA. JPN girls went back to their old inconsistent and predictable style while the INA girls are playing smarter and more deceptive than their opponents.
Watching their performance in Kejurnas when Jo Novita paired Vita Marissa v Purwati/Meiliana is showed that Jo played well much better than Vita. And the next day Jo paired with Lilyana lost to Polii/Mundiatsi. Polii played well in this match while Jo made many ue. Polii also win in mixed paired with Chandra beat Nova/Lilyana. I agree that Polii is best INA WD and Polii/Jo is currently best combination. Just my opinion that Jo & Polii has same playing style, defencive & good placing. Much the opponent knew the weakest point on this pair, WPT/CEH or Saralee/Sathinee knew well it, they allways give high lob to them. Not surprised that WPT/CEH had trouble against new pair Polii/Vita, they are different style. It's better Polii or Jo paired with Single player like Firda, Maria or Pia who has attacking play. But Vita isn't bad choice too.
anyone know the reason why tony/candra walkover jae jung and yong dae? did the kor pair sustain any injury or sth?
