China Open 2017

[Garrison]

Hard to compare tennis and table tennis when you have 4 grand slams per year compared to one world championship every 2 years in table tennis I get what you mean though. Maybe Dima can surprise ML if he gets a good start

FZD will win. Home cooking helps the chubby man more!

This is really funny. [emoji2]

Would love to see how Sun Yingsha performs in Chengdu.

Koki Niwa's form is getting better recently. I'm rooting on him.

Chengdu is very close to my wife's hometown. Incredible food. Wish I could see this one too.

A tough draw for Dimitrij Ovtcharov as he will meet Ma Long in the quarters if he overcomes Kristian Karlsson in the last 16. Zhang Jike will meet Wong Chun Ting in the quarter final if all goes to plan, this will be a great match. Timo Boll and Tiago will be a good game to watch, the winner will take on Fan Zhendong in the quarters.

Time to put on your jiayou pants, folks!

The Zhang Jike girl fans are going to be in full force

yes I sent several video u can watch them . but to be honest theses fan girls brought spirit to table tennis stands .

 

[JeffM]

Zhang Jike will meet Xu Xin in the quarter final, this will be a great match.

Hi Dan, how will that be possible? Xu Xin is in position 17, while Zhang Jike is in position 16, in the draw of 32.

Oh yeah! You are totally right I wrote the post quite early in the morning Zhang Jike will meet Wong Chun Ting in the quarters if all goes to plan.

Lang Jingkun about to lose barring a miraculous meltdown from his opponent. It's tough being on the CNT.

Apolonia has been underperforming recently, won't be surprised if he doesn't reach that stage. Yet, if he manages to play Timo, I will also expect an interesting match.

Lang lost 4-1 at pre round. Is that a knock-out? quite disappointing performance.

RIP Liang Jingkun. Now we will know how strict will be the CNT coaching staff and if they will send him to other tournaments in the next half year.

The doubles draw looks interesting. Finally JNT decided to change the doubles. It seems the Morizono/Oshima Niwa/Yoshimura doubles has been analysed and became too predictable. ZJK in the doubles again, with ML.
FZD/XX will have a hard time, the Lim Jonghoon/Kim Min Seok double performed very good recently.

In Mens Pre rounds we will see Morizono vs Tomokazu. Shouting after every single point, no matter who won

Unless you are trying to watch a match where he is not playing.

Lin Gaoyuan lose too. Amazing.

Lin Gaoyuan lose too. Amazing.

The rank and file demoralized and in disarray after the surprise LGL demise?

Sure it's difficult but you guys know what I mean. Roger is in advanced age and Timo, too. Also in the interviews they seem to have the same attitude for their sport and they are just happy to be able to compare at their age on that level. Thats why I compared them

But the draw is really difficult for the non chinese players.. I think we'll have some interesting matches we can look forward!
