- I think we have a good chance (to win the tournament). If we keep up the good form from today then I think we have a good chance for winning, Julie Macpherson says.

- The Danes have been performing well and have been quite consistence on the tour, but I will not say, that this is the best we can do, Adam Hall says.

- It is only our second tournament but I think we did good in Spain and beat a good pair, and we have shown that we are close to the top pair on the Circuit, Halls says.

- There is still long to go before we can challenge Marcus (Ellis) and Lauren (Smith), Chris and Gabby (Adcock) and Mathias (Christiansen) and Christinna (Pedersen), but I think we are going to be one of the top players in Europe, Adam Hall says.

The Scottish will play Lin Shang Kai (Chinese Taipei) and Kristen Tsai (Canada) in the quarter-finals on Friday.
