R/16 continues the intensity of last stop of SS tour. Four MS seeded players had been ousted. Two encounters presented gruelling battle yesterday, Sugiarto v Wei N and Srikanth v Chou TC whilst the other two outcome were pretty predictable since 4th seed Tago and 8th seed Tian HW showed poor performance recently. It's good day for Denmark as all their three players still exist in this round.

Two Wangs are expected to proceed into last eight also reigning WC Marin and Tai TY as well. CHN Open Champ Saina Nehwal has tricky opponent, Zhang Beiwen also 8th seed Mitani who meet Thailand's Porntip.
MD discipline, two tight matches may happen between Ko SH/Shin BC v Kamura/Sonoda and Fu HF/Zhang N v Ahsan/Setiawan. Third seed Endo/Hayakawa surprisingly was sent packing by Danish #2 Conrad/Kolding yesterday who will take on their younger teammates Rasmussen/Sorensen to chase QF slot.
