Fantastic Friday! as mentioned by BAI Media twitter, all badminton lovers will enjoy fantastic quarterfinal clashes.
MS, huge upset as one of highly favorites top-seed Jorgensen got premature exit by local player H.S. Prannoy whom will take on another Danish #2 Viktor Axelsen today. Tommy finally scored winning over Wei Nan yesterday, his journey most likely will reach finish line at last eight as the great Lin Dan is waiting for him. From lower half of draw, frontrunner Srikanth is still on the right track to semifinal, his compatriot Gurusaidutt will up against on-fire Chinese back up Xue Song.
WS, an easy route for Nehwal to book semi and final. The green youngster Ramadhini and either Yip PY or Hashimoto aren't on par to this Indian jewel. Interesting ties at bottom half, three talented rising stars wil battle to hunt final ticket. The fully confidenced Marin should learn her defeat in HKG SS last year to Okuhara while Intanon is favourite to eliminate Yao Xue.
MD, CHN v DEN at top-half. Last year winner Boe/Mogensen is clear favourite to prevail, their fellow countrymen Conrad/Kolding has chance to beat off form Liu/Qiu. Close ties are expected from Chai/Biao v Hashimoto/Hirata and the tall Russian pair Ivanov/Sozonov contra world #5 Endo/Hayakawa.
WD, 1 semifinal berths has been secured by China, on paper three remaining tickets may go to higher seeded pairs. Lee SH/Shin SC is potential underdog to upset #1 seed Matsutomo/Takahashi, while KOR new partnership Chang YN/Yoo HW who knocked out JPN #2 Kakiiwa/Maeda would deliver stiff resistance for former world#1 Bao YX/Tang JH.
XD, two INA hopefuls may get different fortune as Subaktiar/Widjaja has relatively favourable draw to meet Singaporean Triyachart/Sari whilst Jordan/Susanto will challenge CHN #4 Lu K/Huang YQ. Two hot pairs that performing superb recently will meet each other today, Liu C/Bao YX v Kolding/Juhl.
