PBN Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 sindhu wins her first match easily. hopeful of something good in singles from sindhu and saina maniac 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PBN Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 (edited) If Sindhu and Saina win the next round of 16, they'll face tough competition in the QF's. No freebies as expected I suppose. Saina vs Li Xuerui (ranked 3rd, gold medalist at London) Sindhu vs Wang Yihan (ranked 2nd, silver medalist at London) That's pretty stiff competition so both will need to be at their top. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Badminton_at_the_2016_Summer_Olympics_–_Women's_singles#Finals Edited August 11, 2016 by PBN randomGuy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, Lee Chong Wei holds his own. lin dan is not as good as before. lcw isn't the same player after doping scandal.

She's inconsistent but tends to play her best in bigger tournaments . Doubles , Ashwini screwd her career sticking to Jwala for so long . She should have moved on to a younger player by now . when you push her back, sindhu often goes into a shell. she needs a MSD like mentor on how to perform when you are up against the wall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lannister Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Srikanth is through to quarterfinals. The next three likely opponents for him would be Lin Dan, LCW and Chen Long. Good luck with that Adi_91 and maniac 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maniac Posted August 15, 2016 Author Share Posted August 15, 2016 Yeah Srikanth's tournament about to come to an end......Sindhu just doesn't have it to maintain that prolonged consistency....she will let us down soon before the medal rounds.

PBN Posted August 15, 2016 Share Posted August 15, 2016 Sindhu dominating the game now and looks good to qualify for QFs. In badminton, India has a few good players ranked in the top 10 in the singles either men or women. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're going to have to face the top 4 or 5 in the QFs as they're spread across the bracket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PBN Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 (edited) Sindhu takes out Yihan. Top class match Although Sindhu conceded her big lead a couple of times, came back strongly in the end to win the match. Great achievement.
