The last ITTF World Tour event before the London Olympics will be held in Brazil. Despite the long distance and the short break since the last World Tour event (the Japan Open 2012), several top players are heading towards Santos to ensure they'll be match-fit.

Korea's Joo Se Hyuk, the World #8 enters the tournament as the #1 seed.

Even though there are only a couple World Top 100 players competing, it should still be interesting to see how the top seeds perform just before the Olympics. Will Joo Se Hyuk get back to his old form after getting knocked out early last week? Could Oh Sang Eun reach and perhaps even win the final this time now that Jun Mizutani isn't around? Or is the European army led by Saive and Freitas going to cause them some trouble?

Ryu will win this... Joo doesn't stand a chance against his monstrous FH

Oh and Ryu are scheduled to meet in the semi's- i think Oh will beat Ryu if this is the case, his style is much more economical, and Ryu isnt as fast as in the old days, so I think Oh will defeat him.
Joo should get to the final no problems in reality; the only person to cause him problems may be marcos freitas.
Oh vs Joo- i dont know, they know each other so well...but go JSH!!

If it comes to all-Korean matches, Oh will beat Ryu and Joo because he can still pass Ovtcharov in the world ranking, which would be important for team seeding at the Olympics.
