Men's singles quarter-final matches:

Xu Xin vs Gao Ning --------------- 18:30
Tang Peng vs Zhang Jike --------- 19:15
Fan Zhendong vs Wang Hao ------ 20:00
Chuang Chih-Yuan vs Ma Long ---- 20:45

Note: Quarter-final matches will be played today. All times are in local time (+8 GMT).

Quarter-final matches will be great! I think Xu Xin, Zhang Jike, Fan Zhendong and Ma Long will get reach the semi-final.

I agree with your prediction-a all chinese semi and final

This was I think some involvement of some bet companies..
You could see clearly, that Wang Hao didnt even try to win..
He was just trying out his RPB chop blocks (and they worked out well) ..
You could see in some points that he willingly put the ball into the net.. or instead of some strong play he just put the ball back so it was easy winner for Fan..
I really didnt like this..
What I hope for tomorrow is, that the matches of the doubles partners in the singles will be better..
Interesting fact anyways, that the men doubles partners will be men singles opponents ;)
I am really biting my nails waiting for these semifinals..
Who will win?
I am hoping for ZJK vs. ML final.. and you guys?

Yeah, I had that impression too, Zhang Jike looked as if it was his intention to lose a game... What a shame...

And at this point I think Gao Ning did the same, it was too sospicious that after having played so good he just threw away three service returns

Not Zhang Jike .. I think you ment Wang Hao ;)

No well Wang Hao played really bad, but Zhang Jike was clearly superior in fact of technique and probably everything else (without saying anything about his opponent that even managed tu beat Yan An) and he made some mistakes that were clearly on purpose, like throwing the ball in the air and catching it again in his hand, service into the net and other things that made his behaviour look sospicious. The commenter noticed it too

Zhang Jike knew that he will not lose this match, no matter what.
So he enjoyed himself, played some exhibition stuff and tryed few things..
I think he really liked that match..
Sometimes I do the same when playing weak opponent.. I just have fun!
