Twitter reacts as Saina Nehwal loses in the second round of the 2017 China Open

2014 champion Nehwal lost 18-21, 11-21 to the fifth seeded Akane Yamaguchi in 37 minutes.

Saina @NSaina was in such a good flow in the first game leading 17-14, ended up losing 18-21,11-21 to Akane Yamaguchi. Come back stronger for the Hong Kong Open Champ! We want to see you play in the Superseries Finals. #Badminton

@NSaina ma’am saw your whole game with yamaguchi, sorry for this one. But you need to reduce and increase your court coverage. Also need to get some aggression in the game! Can’t see loose like this.

@NSaina Never mind the loss in second round against Akane.. It is extremely difficult to play a Super series after Nationals with so little gap.. I think there should be a minimum of three weeks gap... All the best for Hong Kong Open...This photo will cheer you up. :) :) pic.twitter.com/Isl9duva0I

Saina Nehwal lost~~ She needs to at least reach FINAL in #HongKongSS in order to qualify to Dubai. Small chance now.. https://t.co/bYythcDQ6e

Hard luck for Saina Nehwal and HS Prannoy as they crash out of the #ChinaSSP in the 2nd round.

Third time in 3 tournaments @NSaina falls to Yamaguchi. And second time she just gave up in the second game. This is an issue that Gopichand and his team has to address in earnest.

That was brutal by Yamaguchi again. Saina loses to her for the 4th time in a row.#ChinaSSP

Just sit back and admire Yamaguchi's defensive skills. From powerful backhand strokes to accuracy at the net, she's got everything. #ChinaSSP

Saina needs to find new tactics to tackle Yamaguchi after yet another hiding https://t.co/ZoeAmXaxht

If He Bingjiao reaches QF today, Saina's hopes of Dubai are over, even He Bin doesn't reach QF today, Saina has to win the title and expect He to go home in 1st round at hongkong
