Yes I know that. Just one case. CNT still has many players much better than Chen Ke, like SYS, CXT and WMY. I don't think non-CNT players have chances to beat them, although they are currently not top of CNT.

Instead, I am worried about whether Xu Xin can pass through Lee Sangsu this time, and whether Lin Gaoyuan can beat Timo or Harimoto(assuming LGY has more chances to win against Fang Bo).:eek:
Chen Ke is not the strongest of CNT player but she lost 0-4 to Hirano :p

I think people are underestimating the Japanese too quickly. Of course the Chinese team is very stronger and I think WMY SYS or CXT will even be stronger than the current CNT leaders. They all play like men. However the Japanese are talented and still young. I think it's too early to say Hirano or Ito or Hayata have already peaked and cannot improve.

I think they are less strong but will upset the Chinese from time to time

We see a different Mizutani today, he is hot for the upset against FZD! 1:0 for him.

Seems to be the end of Achanta's run here, Groth in outstanding form.

Xu Xin appears to be able to beat his demon Lee Sangsu in convincing fashion today.

After close first games Zhou Yu looks to have taken the upperhand against Karlsson.

Hayata led in 3 of the 4 games and lost them all in deuce. I gotta give it to Hirano. She is really good when the game is tight. That is exactly the quality that Ishikawa lacks.

Harimoto doesn't like curry.

Curry tomahawk serve, to be precise.

There is a problem with his forehand backswing.
