Juliane Schenk treads into semi-finals of Women’s Singles event – German Open Update

Women’s Singles expert Juliane Schenk played impeccable badminton in the quarter-final round of Yonex German Open and overpowered Tai Tzu Ying on Friday, March 1, 2013.

This straight-set match lasted for 38 minutes before ending with decisive figures of 21-14 and 21-16.

The native shuttler relished full benefits of home ground and wrapped this showdown in just two games.

Meanwhile, the Taipei campaigner looked completely off song and her below par performance led her to a woeful exit from this tournament.

Juliane Schenk, who holds third spot in this tournament ranking, laid foundation of her dominance immediately in the opening game.

She did not give her opponent enough time to get settled and confounded her with an intensive attack.

Tzu Ying was not prepared for this blistering knock as she remained grounded in most part of the game. Juliane capitalised her competitor’s blunders and piled up a mountainous figure of 11 before the interval.

After one-minute break, the German shuttler played with even more precision and strengthened her grip over game.

At first, she raised her chances of success by prevailing in couple of uninterrupted rallies and then claimed this crucial match point with a favourable score position of 21-14.

The following game was just a replay of first set as both contenders were poles apart in terms of performance.

Though, the Taipei player showed some spark in the beginning but her fluctuated performance allowed Juliane Schenk to reinstate her supremacy.

The German campaigner did not give her challenger even a single counterattack opportunity and swept the table with 21-16 margin.

With this splendid straight-set victory, she marched into semi-final round where Sayaka Takahashi of Japan will be waiting for her.
