Sad to see ZJK go out this way.

That being said, better to leave that spot at the table to somebody able. Such a walkover hurts the tournament as well.

These registrations were done months in advance - it will be interesting to see what will happen with the Australian Open.

The injuries of Zhang Jike are such a shame. It is great for the sport with ZJK going far in the events, it will increase the fan engagement to. What injury is it ZJK suffering from exactly does anyone know?

Somehow I still find it weird that a guy apparently build like a rock is so injury-ridden. I mean look at those tree trunks he has for legs. Never judge a book by its cover.


Also I didnt quite see it but I think somehow Samsonov threw the ball behind his body while serving lol

Yeah, serve fault. Harimoto also get called for his serves, probably the throw wasn't high enough.
