Hopefully we will see Fan vs Boll in semis
Nowadays TT is great because you never know who is going to win. I think Boll have quite easy road to semis and Lin too. Month ago I would say the same about Fan but he lost to XX who he beat easily many Times in the past.
Anyway if Timo faces Fan it will be really hard for him since Fan is very powerfull player and faster then Ovtcharov on his feet.
I still hope for Niwa-Boll final :).

This Grand final is a total mystery. If Niwa is on fire and Dima not that much, then the german star might fall. LGY might even win the event, but he might lose in the first round, he isn't as consistent as FZD or XX or even Timo. XX seems to be in a good shape, but he might be the easiest to beat from CNT for foreigners. FZD is the favourite but Dima, XX, Timo, LGY both has a chance to beat him.
:confused:
