Putting my faith in Liang Jingkun. I like Kenta but the importance of this match for LJK is enormous.
Jang Woojin shouldn't be overlooked against Fang Bo.
Oh Fang Bo, now a totally failed serve at 10-9 to lose 10-12... Liu is thinking that he better not be coming home
I didn't see the point, but the thing with LJK is that these guys do not get such a chance very often. For Kenta and others this may be a tough loss, but they can try again at the next tournament. For Liang to go out in the first round would be devastating. Of course if he saw it it is unsportsmanlike, but in the heat of the moment you may not always be in total control of your mind.
yeah he's having a swollen ankle again but b4 his game against tiago apolonia he had a bad fever as he told . he played so well in spite of his disease , he really has got a good fighting spirit . let's see the pictures :He's having a fever and a swollen ankle today I think he played very wisely. Hope he'll get well soon!
