“Saina is our best medal hope given the form she is in. And for the first time many rivals will be scared of the Indians because even the mixed doubles pair of V. Diju and Jwala Gutta (ranked in the top 10 of the world) are capable of pulling off an upset, just as the men's doubles pair of Sanave and Rupesh,” - Chetan Anand

[SachDan]

Aditi Mutatkar bows out in the first round itself...anyways no one expected her to progress much.

Chetan Anand lost first game 21-14 :(

[SachDan]

**** Chetan Anand crashes out. 107th ranked Ashton Chen of Singapore beat him in straight games :((

[SachDan]

In Mixed Doubles, Diju-Jwala Gutta duo won their second round match in straight games :clap:

[Roshanrocks]

Wot happened to Chetan... didnt expect him to go out so soon

[SachDan]

Wot happened to Chetan... didnt expect him to go out so soon

He was not among our title hopes. Yeah..didn't expect him to bow out this early though,that too against such a low ranked player. May be a case of him not fully recovering from knee injury!

[suma25]

^Probably controversy surrounding his personal life as well must be troubling him. He was married to Jwala gutta the top mixed doubles player for india..They divorced recently .She is said to be having a affair with azhar who also gifted her a bmw xseries car.

[SachDan]

:yay::yay: Rupesh Kumar - Sanave Thomas duo also through to round of 16 in Men's Doubles :aha:

[ludhianvi]

Jwala/Ashwini (women's doubles) go through to Round 3. Finally caught some action of the match and it was a walk in the park for the Indians easily beating the Ukranians in straight sets 21-8 21-10 . From first impressions, Ashwini seems to be a promising young talent and Jwala, while a little slow in her movements at times, has a massive jawalamukhi like smash.. hehe The next match will be a tough one against the Koreans. Tomorrow, its Saina's match :yay: Hopefully it will be shown on tv :) Some highlights of the match (2nd set) [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=udjT3cJiRvk]YouTube- Jwala Gutta - Ashwini Ponnappa - Women's Double - YONEX BWF WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS 2010[/ame]
