I think it is also a question to the coach how did he encourage his player. YZY just beat Kizukuri quite easily. He will know face Darko Jorgic who is my black horse of this event. I hope Darko beat him same way as Liang Jingkun.

I am fairly sure that Truls won that match. Not sure why you think Darko did.

My bad. I did not watch the match, just check out the score of finished matches, there is written that Darko won the match:

MOREGARD Truls


now I found in the scores of the day that it went other way. Pity for Darko, anyway Truls is great talent and I hope he will give some hard time for YZY.

Table 3 Eckholm vs Zhang Qiang. Is she from the CNT ? The Chinese had a 3-0 lead but now it’s 3-2 only and the Swedish is leading 7-3 in the 6th game !


Yes, CNT. I have to go back to that - I quit watching out of surprise when it was 3-0.

Yes, CNT - same age group as Sun Yingsha. I have to go back to that - I quit watching out of surprise when it was 3-0.
I believe you meant same age group as Ishikawa.

Another failure.

Where are the people who said the new World Ranking was a joke now? I formally demand their sincere apologies.

If Ma Long drops down to #7 and Ding Ning drops down to #20 something, it's a joke ... yes ; )
When ML lost at the World Cup last year, Boll was No. 5(No. 6 in the month before), so No. 7 sounds reasonable. If people disagree with this, then that's an indirect denial of the old World Ranking.

Bias is good, but bias with logic is better.

Ha ha ... not getting into this discussion. It's a transitional period now for sure and a general paradigm shift.

Now that's an exciting match. Oozing with passion! Salifou came back from the depth of 5:9 to 9:9, but unfortunately lost 2 on his serve. Another proof the receiving end holds the advantage now.

According to CTTA's new policy on World Tour, if one fails qualification stage or loses to a non-CNT player in the first round of main draw, one will be banned from next World Tour opportunity.
In Qatar Open, WCQ, XF, LDS, WY and Sun Mingyang failed in qualification. LDS was not included in German Open entries list originally. WCQ, XF, Sun Mingyang withdrew German Open as the penalty of Qatar Open. WY failed qualification of Qatar only losing to LSW. Therefore she was not penalized and still can play German Open.
As YZY and Zhang Qiang failed in qualification and lost to non-CNT players, they will be banned from next World Tour that they are qualified.
