[F] (3) Joshana Chinappa (IND,13) vs (1) Joelle King (NZL,9)

Joshana is in the final of big Hong Kong event after scoring some thrilling win over talented players ... First round she defeated former top-20 Egyptian girl in four games ... In the quarters she defeated very experienced and former WR #1 Aussie player Rachel Grinham in five minutes ... In the semis she beats defending champion and top-10 local player Annie Au in exciting five games, match was extended to an hour long battle ... I m really hoping she is having enough energy for the final against top-seed and another top-10 New Zealand player Joelle King.
