the much acclaimed saina nehwal, whom we expected to give a gold,came a cropper in the QF against a much lower ranked hong kong chinese player. saina has got her world 3 ranking in 2010 by playing & winning tournaments where the top ranking chinese did not participate like the indonesian open,indian open & singapore open. however whenever she came up against a star chinese player she lost, that too in straight 2 games,such as world championship 2009 in hyderabad,england open 2010, & world championship 2010 paris. winning the gold in CWG 2010, lifted our hopes & we expected from her a repeat performance at Asiad 2010, but her true calibre was exposed @ guangzhou.the girl has immense potential but needs more exposure against the best in the world, & should stop participating in ramp shows & being brand ambassadors.

Sania is Goddess of Tennis. Saina is just a kid but she will become great badmington player eventually.

What I know is The total Points only will be calculated at the end not the Win or Draw. How many Total Points we earn will decide while Still long way to go, Just 3 rounds finished and more then 6 rounds to go
