We are going to see early final between Jun Mizutani and Liang Jingkun

Liang is no match to Jun today. Jun had improved a lot lately. Only the very best from China can stop him now. And Koki is out too.

WCT will meet Tang Peng tomorrow. Their head to head shows no previous result. Too bad the only 2 left from HK has to take on each other. I hope WCT can make it.

WCT played great today against Karlsson, I think he can beat Tang now.

Koki Niwa lost to Morizono 3:4. Morizono beat WCT this year in Spain but lost to Drinkhall in the final.

WCT met Jun once this year in German losing 3:4. So he is not totally without chance. But if they have to meet this time it will be final and the way is still long. He may have to face Morizono again. That will be interesting.

Mizutani has improved a ton! If you watch his games from 2 years ago, he will serve and then go back 3 ft from the table and wait for the return. And if the ball got looped to hi backhand, he will passively block and then the block will turn into a lob and he will end up lobbing. He had no short game and no backhand.

Now when he serves he is positioned well. He flicks and BH loops. And he is still an exceptional lobber.
