This is going to be a big tournament so lets get started by discussing the seeds. We can use this thread as a means to display all the latest results, videos and news from this spectacular event! What are your predictions from each event?

Main draw is out! As summarised by TTD member: Michal_Z

Men's Singles

Great to see we will probably have another Ma Long vs. Bojan Tokic battle
Also it seems Ma Lin vs. Wang Hao is possible!
Maybe Xu Xin vs. Tiago Apolonia, Baum vs. Joo Se Hyuk..
And .. I really wait for:
Xu Xin vs. Joo Se Hyuk.. winner will probably play Zhang, if Zhang beats Yan An!
But Yan An must first beat Chen Weixing..

Many interesting matches going on!

Women' Singles

In women.. Kasumi Ishikawa vs. Ding Ning, Hirano Sayaka vs. Guo Yan, Liu Shiwen vs. Fan Ying, Liu Shiwen vs. Ai Fukuhara!
Also Iveta Vacenovska vs. Li Xiaoxia can be very interesting.. And Xiaoxia vs. Wu Yang..
Ouuuu, Im so happy!

Hungary Open was perfect for me. :D Ma Long won and Liu Shiwen won. Improbable that this tournament will be perfect too.
But I still hope for Ma Long and Liu Shiwen.
I think this tournament will not cause so much upset like Hungary Open ( early loss from Ding Ning and Zhang Jike)

Very good point, Zhang Jike and Ding Ning will be going Slovenia to cause some revenge! I think Yan An may cause some upsets...

I was kinda disappointed that the big man is not playing. He yet to play in Europe this year. I hope LGL won't forget him this 2012, coz he still has a lot to offer, especially being such a good trooper for China.

Does anyone know what's going on with Wang Liqin? How come he has been absent?

Both Ma Long and Zhang Jike looked very tired last world tour... I think Xu Xin is more than ready for going all the way, I voted for Xu Xin! :D

I think just the same as you asi I voted for Xu Xin this is his tournament and we cant forget he is also the defending champion
