Ito has given shortpips so much hope, but Sun Mingyang so much hell.

He's born in 1994.

Thank you, Zeio! Brilliant commentary on this match!

Woah, CIC came back from the depth.

I think he beat Gionis during an England vs. Greece match. It's also something interesting that German league has choppers but French league doesn't.

Well, at least it's got Stephane Ouaiche, who's prone to doing just about anything, including chopping, doesn't it?

SQ is surely an entertainer.

Waldner, Persson, Samsonov, and Rosskopf ate choppers for breakfast, considering the fact it was a much harder style to overcome.

Name me 4 Europeans who could do that now, in an era where choppers have never been weaker?

Looking back at that generation maybe it correlates them having more practice and match time against choppers to getting used to them.

Boll, Samsonov, Gauzy, Franziska, Habesohn, Fegerl, Mattenet, and even Filus (great against choppers...)?

Shibaev and Dima usually do well vs choppers too. It usually comes down to the forehand quality and the practice hours.

Watching Polcanova play always heartens me. When she lost to Liu Shiwen, the score was terrible but the quality was high. Her height gives her easy power and the leftiness a tricky dimension and she has managed to remain limber. Every time I see Sofia, I think Europe has a chance.

Men's quarter final. Live on table 1, 2 and 4. Why not stream table 3??

WTF ITTF . . . .

Simon is in good form. But Wang Chuqin's power and speed might be too much for him.

There was something disturbing about his right foot or ankle movement in an earlier match. He scraped by, but with an inkling of impaired movement. I couldn't pinpoint it precisely, I just had this slight uncomfortable impression of awkwardness when he moved (or should have moved) swiftly into the FH gap.
