The image of the day is the joy of Kenneth Jonassen, of Denmark, after his win over second seed Bao Chunlai of China, for one of the main upsets of this tournament so far. The Dane beat Bao 21/14 - 21/19. The Dane will now take on Lee Hyun Il of Korea. Both men are desperate for a title after a long title drought. Lee Chong Wei, home favorite, will be taking on China's last hope in the event, Chen Yu..
Malaysia's other sweetheart Wong Mew Choo was close to losing to Japan's cute Eriko Hirose but managed to clinch her semi-final ticket against World Champion Zhu Lin. Denmark's Tine Rasmussen once again beat Lu Lan and will be hoping for continued success against Pi Hongyan of France on Saturday.

Bad news for Malaysian fans, as all local pairs are out. Lee and Choong fell to Paaske and Rasmussen, while Chan/Chew, logically, bowed to China's Cai and Fu. China makes up for its poor singles outing in the doubles, with 3 pairs in the women's doubles event and one pair in the mixed.

Was there in Putra Stadium. The matches were plain awesome, esp the one between Eriko and Mew Choo.
