Such a shame Timo Boll is not in this. I am going to the Pro Tour Grand Finals in London in November and I really want to see him!

Does anyone think he will play in the next Pro Tour in Sweden next month?

Im going to the pro tour finals to and i prey timo will be there. He also needs to be there to get a feel for what its going to be like at london 2012

Yeah his performance is under his normal level and I am sure that he will not risk World Ranking Points and I can't understand that ....

he lost to Bastian Steger in TTBL 3-0 and to Oh Sang Eun in Championsleague although he has 4 match points (lead 10-6 and 2-1, still lost)

You can't predict this one
when two chinese meet everything can happen
I hope Hao Shuai will reach the final :D
But all in all I think it will be a match between ZJK ML and WH
U are right, it would be so nice for Hao Shuai to grab a title. He deserves it, such an awesome player but always put on the background by the more aggressive playing Chinese team players.

I would love to see a different final from the usual ML,WH, ML.... Perhaps Jun Mizutani can do something?

Wang Hao vs. Hao Shuai
Ning Gao/Adrian Crisan vs. Xu Xin
Patrick Baum vs. Ma Long
Zhang Jike vs. Bastian Steger

And Samsonov vs. Ma Lin

Then semifinals Wang Hao vs. Ma Long.. or Xu Xin vs. Ma Long
