I guess tomorrow matches will be much more interesting. The one i'm waiting for is of course the match between NTM and LCW. i expect a mouth watering match here anyway, all the best to mas players tommorrow.. for the latest scores, results and tomorrow order of play, please kindly refer here> http://www.tournamentsoftware.com/s...6051B5-CD7B-4E98-A111-5A927631C0C1&d=20090813
I want to see LCW against SDK again - just like in WC 2007, I want see if the history will repeat itself or if LCW will redeem himself. At that time LCW was WR#2 and had home court advantage and was most favorable to win over SDK; but the end result was different. First, LCW needs to take care of the dark horse NTM and we shall see...
Just for the heck of it: What would your reaction be if the two dark horses NTM beat mighty LCW and Dicky Palyama beat Super Dan ??? (Dicky has the right to be the dark horse after he toppled BCL in two sets.
This should be another interesting md match to watch out Howard Bach[USA] Tony Gunawan[USA] -[DEN] Mathias Boe [6][DEN] Carsten Mogensen although the danes have much more advantage here, i still think that bach and gunawan have a 50-50 chance here..
Waiting for more upsets and drama to come in R16 Best of LUCK for all INA players, they certainly NEED that :Wink:
Hmmm, lots of interesting matches ,-) Day 4, Round of 16 Lots of interesting matches involving giant clash, dark horses and possible upsets For INA camp, i hope there's not too much casualties who following Firda and BoSan's footsteps But today the "massacre" seems inevitable Though i hope they prove me wrong. Okay lets get started: WD: GeNit vs DJ/YY Shen/Mei vs MJ/WXL Bad draws, Bad luck, Mission (almost) impossible against the Great Walls :crying: ... WS: MKY vs PHY Go mbak jamu! Lets hope PHY's alergy towards Maria (Kristin, Febe) continues here Btw, i'm a bit curious why ppl keep calling PHY as Lady Pi? ... MD: Rian/Yoke vs Fuzzy pair Battle among inconsistent pairs, let's see who's gonna be more "consistent" in this match I think they're quite even, the outcome will depends on which side who able to minimize their unforced-stupid-errors But i guess being as lone MD survivor for INA camp will put Rian/Yoke under pressure ... XD: DeviL vs TL/KRJ Unconvincing performance from 2 previous matches, so bye bye DeviL Hope they can springs some upset, though NW/LN vs KKK/NHL A tricky match, but it should be no problem for the defending champion Well, at least until proven otherwise ... MS: TH vs HYH SS vs Tago SDK vs CA Well i hope all of them prevails and advance to QF But their opponents may surprise 'em, though Especially HYH Hehehe ,-D
The chances are... ..for these 2 scenarios, the chances are: SLIM and NONE.. ..indeed. If not mistaken, they last time they met was in the 2004 U.S. Open MD Final. In that match, Gunawan and Bach destroyed Boe & Mogensen. Time has passed and we'll see how much the Danes have improved..Should be a very good match! ..that moniker, i believe, was given by one of the BC members a while back... Maybe it was given by our Syaoran_Style (who is also from the lovely France): http://www.badmintoncentral.com/vb/showthread.php?p=139919
I think the one to watch is SS vs Tago. I think it's 50-50. Tago seems to be in perfect form, not only he beat Zwiebler, he dominated him. Interestingly, every shot Tago made reminds me of Taufik. And of course quite a few shots of SS also resemble that of Taufik. So it's a clash between two Taufik clones.
Watch Tago play and you'll know what I mean. Btw, since both Tago and SS lacks the power that Taufik has, I don't think either will be the next Taufik... But I think Tago (currently 20 if I remember correctly) has the potential to reach top 10 or even top 5 in a few years.
^^Kenichi..and Simon..^^ ..have been mentioned in the same breadth with Taufik's name before, mostly because of their style (Kenichi) and ability (Simon). Don't really look too much into Tago's win over Zwiebler. But, it is really going to be a 50-50 battle.
