At first game Akane demolished Yulia but the Indonesian did better to deliver some resistance in game 2, the match is ended with 21-8 / 21-18 for Japanese teen star.

Change of ends. There was a worse side with the shuttle floating a bit. The hall is about 1/4 full which is pretty good for qualifying rounds.

Was it about drift in stadium Cheung to force Akane hard to control the shuttlecock in game 2?
 
Prajakta/vontus INA/IND they def Markus/Rizki..I wasn't expecting that..
Saurabh verma isn't playing his real game this days I think..consecutive R1 def and even he is failing to qualify for the more prestigious ones...
 
Ajay Jayaram was pushed hard all the way to the duece by an unknown player from CT..well let's see how well can he do in the g2
 
AJ wins comfortably in g2 meets top seed CL..
The angry dragon after his unexpected def @ home soil should be impatient to thrash all his opponents enroute to the title... ;)

Chen Long loses in the early rounds. Ajay has a warm up match getting used to the conditions and is up to speed. Ajay has a chance!
 
Just noticed that WSX, the 1st seed will face Liu Xin in the 2nd round if both won their matches against Eriko and Michelle Li respectively.

Very surprised to see Viktor Axelsen is the betting favourite against Kenichi Tago

Even I am rooting for young VA..
nothing is going KT"s way..
Draws..his strategy..rankings...nothing..
Whereas VA has shown good signs lately he is also one of the contenders battling for a place in SSF...he will really show his best tomorrow moreover the recently concluded one Sider KT vs PK with all +ve things VA is indeed having bright chances to impose an early upset in this concluding SS
 
ROUND OF 32 (09.00am local time, 4 courts) => https://www.tournamentsoftware.com/sport/matches.aspx?id=4BC97B56-47EC-4612-9850-455FB7F5DA5B

The first match is already started, KOR XD Shin BC/Chang YN was retired, who's injured this time?

Many intriguing ties today that may spring some upsets :
- Tian HW (CHN) v Chong WF (MAS)
- Sugiarto (INA) v Wei N (HKG)
- Chou TC (TPE) v Srikanth (IND)
- Hu Y (HKG) v Son WH (KOR)
- Axelsen (DEN) v Tago (JPN)
- Momota (JPN) v Wang ZM (CHN)
- Tai TY (TPE) Takahashi (JPN)
- Okuhara (JPN) v Sun Y (CHN)
- Conrad/Kolding (DEN) v Endo/Hayakawa (JPN)
- Maheswari/Polii (INA) v Matsuo/Naito (JPN)
- Kido/Bernadeth (INA) v Sudket/Saralee (THA)
 
Akane Y progresses to R16 with minimum fuss. This young lady is slated for great things, surely.
 
It will be interesting to see how Carolina Marin does here. She's been back in competition for a while now, so the rust should have worn off.

I would love to see her at her best again; she`s feisty and intelligent, and brings that edge of uncertainty that makes a match so much more fun.
