It's being used as a trial for the 2012 Olympic competition. For an event of this type the tickets are very cheap, details at http://www.ticketmaster.co.uk/Ittf-Pro-Tour-Grand-Final-tickets/artist/1628351

Hey there.

I'm thinking about flying over to see some matches and visit my nan.
I know it's a bit much to ask but i have no clue where to look.
Could anybody help me figure out how to get from Stanstead airport - to Colchester. Then from Colchester - to the Finals - and back again .And then from Colchester - to Stanstead.
There must be a bus or something. But i have no clue how expensive travelling in the UK is. Last time i was there i got picked up and then took my grandads car. Since this is no option anymore i kinda need your help. Thing is i dont want to spend to much money and i want to roughly know how much everything will cost.

Cheers!

I'm certainly hoping to be there. Pricing's very cheap and rover tickets are available. Buses from Stansted to Colchester run every hour, journey time approx 60 minutes, cost = £10 single & £15 return see http://colchester-angle.com/info/stanstedlink.html

So when this will happen?
How it will be proceeded?
Groups then play off?
Or .. what will happen?

Matt Hetherington · Oct 27, 2011

Ma Long will win I believe. As much as I would love to support ZJK, Ma Long has been more than a dominant force in pro tour events recently, his form is unstoppable at the moment.

YosuaYosan · Oct 29, 2011

If Ma Long could just sustain his condition now (or even take it to a higher degree), he would win easily.

Dam, Waldner never won a pro tour final.

Venue is the ExCel Centre, London. All details should be found on this site: http://etta.co.uk/grand-finals/

Being held at the same time as the ATP tennis finals at the O2 Arena, which is very close by. Both venues only a short trip from central London.

Compared to similar events, ticket prices for the Pro Tour Finals are very, very reasonable.

And Ding Ning will win the woman competition. But I hope, that Liu Shiwen can find back to her old performance and win it

So maybe she has some chances for olympics, too.

Lets see how well ZJK play after his WC win.
Could his ultra spinnay game beat Ma Long ? Wanna see that.

I will start to dream that Ma Lin is winning this. Yea, just dreaming...

david93fcb · Nov 16, 2011

This is most likely going to be the best tournament this year next to the WTTC and maybe the China Open concerning the quality of the players entering the competition.
If Timo had qualified it would have been perfect.
Can't really pick a favourite yet but Ma Long - ZJK would be a perfect final.

I will take a bet how early Ma Lin goes out

I think after what he has done lately, he wont be any good at this one ..

So round 1? Round 2? .. hmm.. In fact I dont know how will be this played..??
Groups? Then 8 players to main draw?
If so, I will not be surprised, if Ma Lin will not even go into main draw..
No offense, I am just saying my mind

Yes I also hope for another Zhang Jike vs. Ma Long final..
And I also hope for Ma Long to win, so Zhang Jike can finally shut up and stick his finger into ..

After Austrian open, China Open Harmony and Chinese championships this would be fourth defeat for Zhang..
I really do like how he plays, Zhang, but I dont like him as a human.. not a bit..
But Ma Long is the man!

And for women I will really hope and I will be willing Liu Shiwen to get at least into finals and if all works she can even win!

Ma Long FTW, would love to see him in the final with Zhang Jike! Epic!

WiWa · Nov 21, 2011

Does anyone know how the invitations are determined? Is it pure on Pro Tour prize money + the best scoring player from the host country?
