Saina was slow to start and lagged behind as Tai opened up a narrow 3-1 lead and extended it to 15-6. The Indian caught up with the Chinese Taipei player at 18-18 but Tai was unfazed as she sealed the first game. The second one was a more intense battle as Saina and Tai were involved in a fierce battle till 10-10. But once again Tai surged ahead to eventually have the last laugh. However, the Indian pair of Jwala Gutta and V Diju entered the mixed doubles quarter-finals with a 21-16, 21-19 victory over the English combine of Chris Adcock and Imogen Bankier. Saina has won only one title -- Swiss Open Grand Prix Gold -- this year and finished runner-up at Malaysia Open Grand Prix Gold and Indonesia Super Series.
