He had a back injury, and now he wants to focus on the WTTTC and the Olympics so he skipped some world tours.

Do want to see Koki Niwa against the Chinese. :p

So this is the training camp Zhang and Ma skipped Qatar for. :p

Yeah the way he played today showed that he really is getting stronger. He might not get into the top 5 soon, but I certainly see him passing players like Mizutani, Wang Liqin and Ma Lin.

Well, Ovtcharov and Skachkov just hugged after the final. :D

The streaming quality is really good now as well. Ovtcharov had a hard time against Chen Weixing. If Chen managed to get back to 2-2 it would've been a totally different match I think.

Yeah, the stream has a terrible view and quality.

Great interview. :) It's interesting how every French player says that Mattenet's works hardest at training. And I like how he watches his best shots of a match on youtube. Wish I could do that. :p

What does that blue box they're standing in do?

And now it gets interesting. :) Time for Xu Xin to prove his ranking and time for the non-Chinese to step up and show what they're capable of.

Ahh this reminds me of a boy who actually got to a decent level (like, top 100 juniors in the Netherlands) with a paralyzed arm. When he served, he just placed the ball onto the other side of the elbow of his playing arm, and then he threw it up. Pretty amazing. :)

And guess what... The Kuwait Open starts next week, an the CNT is playing again.

Nope, under it. It's not as fast as a real topspin shot because it's hard with only your wrist, but it's still surprising if your opponent thinks your doing a chop or lob.

I remember doing something similar to this with my backhand.. My arm's motion made it look like a (sidespin-)chop towards the opponent's BH, but I just used my wrist for a fast topspin shot deep into the FH.

I taxied a lefty during a match last weekend. :)

He only has a week to rest, because next week is the Qatar Open with Germany, Japan and Korea. ^^

I already got lucky with the WTTC last year. ^^ But where will the ETTC be this year anyway?

Mario's from Nintendo, he never appeared on Sony's Playstation. :p

Why was he disqualified after the match, if his bat was probably tested before the match?
