Meanwhile, Indonesian top player Taufik Hidayat went through a tough match against Bonsak Ponsana of Thailand to book a berth in the quarterfinals, where he meets Peter Gade of Denmark.

"As I play at home, the chance to win against Gade would be fairly great. Support from the audience and my experiences vying him several times would be great assets to face my match tomorrow," said the 2004 Olympic champion.
