Really fascinating to compare styles from 2009 to 2011. Ma was stronger and Seiya became very backhand oriented - in the 2009 match he flipped a lot of forehands for winners - I didn't see him do that at all in the 2011 match. Maybe partly Ma didn't allow so many opportunities for that, but still an interesting comparison.

There were a few players Ma Long had these weird losses to back then. But they were anomalies. And he always seems to have come back and beat those players who beat him after. It was not that different in the trials for the 2012 Olympics when Koki Niwa beat Ma Long. I don't think he ever beat him again after that.

in the swedish open, kishikawa was almost at the same level but ML was way better in the BH exchanges and better prepared in the tactics, he tried to initiate fh rallies as much as possible where he is clearly better and also pivoted more compared to the 2009 match
