I think she feels the same way.

What isn't obvious is that I made my comment 1 minute into the match or so. Her approach to the match made too clear that today wasn't the day.

i didn't watch the game, and i'm glad I didn't ... business as usual. Ishikawa is CNT's favorite victim...
I would have quit long ago if I was her, LOL

Will CHEN Meng justify her #1 ranking tomorrow against ZHU Yuling ? She has already beaten DING Ning and LIU Shiwen in this tournament. How likely is it that we won't see DING and LIU again in World Championships or Olympics anymore ? It could be CHEN Meng, ZHU Yuling and WANG Manyu ... and there's a lot of able young players not far behind, CHEN Xingtong, or SUN Yingsha come to mind....

Same for ISHIKAWA, it could be ITO HIRANO HAYATA, and a lot of players not far behind and improving fast...

With these new system we are more likely to see them be beaten due to age difference I guess, like you know, the yours are so energetic and powerful, the old ones isn't as fast anymore and stuff, and that made me realize that we probably won't see DN and LSW in Tokyo, I was hoping for a final between they both and finally the gold for Liu (tho I'm a diehard fan of DN)

So I'm betting CM, ZYL and WMY to be the choices of CNT

LJK is known for his power, quickness, and that killer bankhand. But consistency hasn’t been his forte. I’m pleasantly surprised to see how much he’s improved in this regard. Those twenty some bounds of fat haven’t been shedded in vain brother.

My Chinese Olympic team would be ML, FZD, and LJK for men, CM, ZYL, and WMY for women.

There you go. The Chinese folks don't call her the "CNT's maidservant" for nothing.

Tomorrow will be fun. If my memory serves me right, Jang Woojin eliminated Liang Jingkun on the way to the WJTTC title. No less than Ma Long has complimented Jang's game and style as unusual for CNT opponents in its use of variation and deception over power, which might explain why Jang had exceptional results vs Mizutani.

I am still betting on the big Fatty though largely because he is no longer as Fat.

zeio · Jul 21, 2018

The 1st game will be very crucial if Jang is to cause an upset. LJK's last 2 matches against Harimoto and Lim Jonghoon ended 11:9 and 12:10 in the 1st game and both went into downward spirals afterwards. If he manages that 1st game, I wouldn't be surprised if the pressure that has built up until now unravels on LJK.

Konrad Bak · Jul 21, 2018

Woojin from 1:3 to 4:3.

What a performance for Jang Woojin

drunix80 · Jul 22, 2018

Jang Woojin always considered as a man with immense potential in Korea. So far he could not rise up from the shadows of Sangsu and JYS. I am so happy he is beginning to carve a niche for himself. But defeating LJK in beast mode would be v difficult. LJK would want to win it bad and claim his position in CNT.
