This is the third World Tour series of the year! The line up is huge! Who do you think will win? Will Zhang Jike redeem his poor performance in the recent Austria Open?, can the young guns of China including Yan An and Fang Bo pose a threat in the draw? Can China's Ma Long the recent China Super League champion with team Ningbo win the championships? European players Dimitrij Ovtchaov, Bastian Steger, Bojan Tokic, Robert Gardos will all be trying to have their hands on the trophy!

We can use this thread as a means to display all the latest results, videos and news from this spectacular 1st World Tour event of the year! What are your predictions from each event.

Wow, I'm actually quite surprised after voting for Xu Xin, I thought everyone about now will choose Xu Xin but apparently not.
Xu Xin is good player but ZJK and ML are something else.XX beat them 2 or 3 times but they beat XX more than 20 times.
it takes time for a player to find fans.
