2008 World Super Series Masters Finals: 5 nations made it to Grand Finals Day . This is great. 5 nations have arrived at the Grand Final Day at the 2008 World Super Series Masters Finals, namely; Denmark, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Korea and Malaysia My predictions: The champions for this tournament could be; Mixed Doubles Nova WIDIANTO / Liliyana NATSIR [1] (Indonesia) Womens Singles ZHOU Mi [1] (Hong Kong) Mens Singles LEE Chong Wei [1] (Malaysia) Mens Doubles JUNG Jae Sung / LEE Yong Dae [3] (Korea) Womens Doubles CHIN Eei Hui / WONG Pei Tty [1] (Malaysia) And if Denmark is to win one, it could be by Thomas LAYBOURN / Kamilla RYTTER JUHL [2] in the Mixed Doubles. .
MY prediction: Mixed Doubles Nova WIDIANTO / Liliyana NATSIR [1] (Indonesia) Womens Singles ZHOU Mi [1] (Hong Kong) Mens Singles LEE Chong Wei [1] (Malaysia) Mens Doubles KOO KIEN KEAT/TAN BOON HEONG (Malaysia) Womens Doubles CHIN Eei Hui / WONG Pei Tty [1] (Malaysia)
Possible double winner.. ..wow, i have a feeling, most of the players will become Lilyana's best friend, if and when she wins both events tomorrow.....They might have to hire special security personnel to bring all those money back to INA..
Hope Denmark can atleast secure 1 title, it's gonna be tough though, but they stand a good chance in XD. MS is a reaaally hard one for Peter, but who knows??
Mixed Doubles Nova Widianto/Liliyana Natsir [1] vs Thomas Laybourn/Kamilla Rytter-Juhl [2] -- as always, matches between these 2 pairs are always very tight. The record this year is 1-1 and 3-2 to the INA's pair advantage last year. So, expect another close contest, probably lasting 3 sets? I hope Nova/Butet can end the year with a bang. Women's Doubles Wong Pei Tty/Chin Ee Hui [1] vs Vita Marissa/Liliyana Natsir [2] -- another match between top seed and second seed. The last time they met, the MAS pair prevailed in 3-sets. That was also the only time the INA pair lost. So, I hope the INA pair can avenge their loss.
XD : Nova Widianto/Liliyana Natsir (INA) vs Thomas Laybourn/Kamilla Rytter-Juhl (DEN) : 55%-45% WS : Zhou Mi (HKG) vs Wang Chen (HKG) :50%-50% MS : Lee Chong Wei (MAS) vs Peter Gade (DEN) : 51%-49% MD : Koo Kien Kiet/Tan Boon Heong (MAS) vs Lee Yong Dae/Jung Jae Sung (KOR) : 50%-50% WD: Wong Pei Tty/Chin Eei Hui (MAS) vs Liliyana Natsir/Vita Marissa (INA) : 55%-45% Hope KKK/TBH can win the title here.. the other finalists..i will just enjoy the match whoever wins
If peter wins its his 2nd grand prix final win. The last one being 10 years ago . However i predict that both Laybourn/Juhl and PG will be clearly underdogs in their respective matches.
XD : Nova Widianto/Liliyana Natsir (INA) vs Thomas Laybourn/Kamilla Rytter-Juhl (DEN) : 55%-45% WS : Zhou Mi (HKG) vs Wang Chen (HKG) :50%-50% MS : Lee Chong Wei (MAS) vs Peter Gade (DEN) : 55%-45% MD : Koo Kien Kiet/Tan Boon Heong (MAS) vs Lee Yong Dae/Jung Jae Sung (KOR) : 48%-52% WD: Wong Pei Tty/Chin Eei Hui (MAS) vs Liliyana Natsir/Vita Marissa (INA) : 50%-50%
Looking at current forms, I would say these will be favourites. XD - Lay/Juhl over Nova/Lily WS - Zhou Mi over Wang Chen. Wang Chen struggled the past two days. MS - Lee Chong Wei over Peter Gade MD - Jung/Lee over Koo/Tan WD - Vita/Lily over Wong/Chin
XD : Nova/Liliyana of INA MS : Lee Cong Wei of MAS WS : Wang Chen of HKG MD : KKK/TBH of MAS WD : Vita/Liliyana of INA
I predicted : XD : INA MS : Den WS : HK ( WC) MD : KOR WD : INA T . T ...... MAS end up with no title.........^ ^..........
