It seems Kashyap has lost the plot and can't catch up to Xue Song now. The Chinese are truly remarkable players. They came as underdogs and without any no. 1 seeds in all categories and quietly outshine everyone.
Xue Song takes it convincingly in straight games 21-17 & 21-11. Has the potential to be the next Yang Yang?
Power play by prannoy. Jorgensen finding him hard to read. But shouldnt run out of steam in later stages.
Looking at Lin Dan is so disappointing for your own badminton skills. He makes the game so simple that you ask yourself "What am I doing wrong when I'm playing?". He has won just now 21-13 and 21-16.
The stream of Mr.Epic works in some countries but not in all. I guess it has to do with TV-rights or so. I doesn't work for me in the Netherlands. But it does work for me through a VPN-server. Than the network thinks I'm from Sweden and I can watch court 1.
Ruthvika gave a good fight to Saina. Experience prevailed. Prannoy trying too hard. Prannoy has a good defence. But he concentrates on attack more, committing more unforced errors.
Wow, Prannoy is taking the game to Jorgensen with a 7-2 lead in the 3rd and deciding set. Looks like the no. 1 seed is on the ropes at the moment.
Yup, first ever SS quarterfinal for Ramadhini, too bad she can't go further as home fave Saina Nehwal will be her next opponent tomorrow. Only time will tell, but looks like Xue Song is on fire considering how he beat Chou Tien Chen and Kashyap, bright prospect to enter last four.
The hopeless Wang ZM continues his lacklustre performance, 16-21 / 19-21 losing once again to Takuma Ueda.
