The young Tai have gotten into finals, her fans will be very happy. Good fight for Ratchanok in next year's WJC.
That's primarily because all MAS players lost before SF. Meanwhile, Kido/Hendra are engaged in a tight battle with Fang/Lee as expected, with the CT pair winning the first set, despite trailing as much as 5 pts just now. Not a good sign. Hmm....
Goodness, what a terrible showing by Kido/Hendra. Indeed this TPE pair is their nemesis, but the scoreline in the 2nd set is kinda unacceptable. Their performance has been going... stagnant since they left Pelatnas, no? (Let's put aside their win in Sirnas. C'mon, that's like having MU play in INA football league )
Yao Lei/Shinta Mulia Sari go to FINAL.. when the last time SINGAPORE player(s) go to FINAL SUPER SERIES ??
Most of them not going wor. I've been busy watching the SUKMA baddy, didnt see the INA draw also Hafiz supposed slightly injured since India Open, he also dont have stamina to last 3 tourney in a row, so out early. LCW, if not injured, will do better in INA than Spore, like last year. KKK/TBH as usual, dont do well in Spore(same case in 2007,2009), they will do better in INA Generally, Msia players trend is they do better in Indonesia than Spore if they participate in both.
The impossible so it seemed)l has happened! Singapore's WD pair of Yao Lei and Shinta Mulia Sari, fresh from their India Open victory, has caused a big upset this afternoon when they defeated the fourth seeded Taiwanese pair of Cheng Wen Hsing and Chen Yu Chien to enter tomorrow's finals. Yao & Sari overcame their early jitters when they lost badly 10-21 in the first game with a much better performance to take the second and forced a rubber which they eventually won after some nerving-wrecking moments. Spore supporters were thrilled with such a rare victory. I think Cheng paid the price when she was involved in an earlier XD match with partner Chen Hung Ling and expanded much of her energies. She was much slower and the Singapore girls took advantage of her weak condition. I better watch the MS between Peter Gade and Boonsak which turned out to be another close encounter with Peter winning the first game 22-20.
i notice Yao Lei/Shinta Mulia Sari tend to do well in SG. Homeground advantage? Looks like Boonsak stretching PG in to rubber sets
Finally see you around! Long time you havent been online. Yes, see new face in a SS final, Spore SS good for that these 2 years. Now that you mention it, I remember, ya, dunno why, in 2008, 2009, with that type of "cheers' Msia could win, special motivation.
