I really wish they continued the live streaming on Youtube. It was smooth glitch-free full HD after all, unlike FB video which only goes up to 720p and seemed to stall everyonce in a while. Also there was close to a 1000 people watching the live stream on YT, well more than the total actually present in the tournament hall - why on earth would you forcibly cut them off ...

I dislike Facebook streaming vs Youtube.

edit: or "has most improved"? Which is gramatically correct? :)

Sam Walker beat Liam Pitchford again? This triangle matchup is not cool at all - they should have a final 3 all play all to see who wins among the top 3.




What's even more interesting is that Paul Drinkhall almost lost to Helshan Weerasinghe in the quarter-finals. Helshan was 3:1 up and 10:10 in the 5th, but could not clinch it - final score was 4:3 to Drinkhall (6-11, 9-11, 11-4, 1-11, 12-10, 11-6, 11-4).
