2012 London Olympic Games - No All China Singapore Semi Finals

Singapore's dream of a all China - Singapore Semi Finals in the Women's doubles event was crushed by Japan's 19 year old Ishikawa Kasumi. She defeated Wang Yuegu 8-11, 11-5, 11-4, 11-8, 11-4.

In the past 4 years, Wang beat Ishikawa 2 out of the 3 times they met. Today, the odds was 50-50. Wang captured the first game, but Ishikawa never looked back. Ishikawa increased her speed and attack from both wings to clinch the next 4 sets.

Our hopes now lie in the hands of Feng Tianwei who will take on China's Ding Ning in the Semi Finals.
