Too bad for Xu Xin
I totally agree. Xu Xin was really off. He had good anticipation but had way too many unforced errors. Samsonov was very consistent with really good rallies and powerful back hands. It really seems like the pressure got to Xu Xin this time. Maybe after loosing to ma Long so bad he just couldn't bounce back.

Congratulations to Ma Long. He finally has a major. My guess is, he will get more. When he is on form, he is great and very few people have a chance competing against him. When he is not on form he seems to lose to players who he should not lose against. But, again, when he is on form, there is no stopping him.

Somehow I felt Samsonov had better chance against Ma Long than Timo, but Timo managed to beat him.But Ma Long has to improve against fast players with quick blocks. No body would be convinced if you lose 4-0 to a guy at the bottom of the top 10. And then, Zhang Jike was not there

Okay hope is still there ... but you can already see the "SEEDED" lists ... so the ITTF worked already on the participations!?!
Besides the CTTSL starts at 17.10, a reason more for the chinese not to come, isn' it`?

Nice that Gao Ning is showing up. Wasn't he meant to play at the Worlds? Anyway congrats to the beast - Ma Long!

Well the Chinese Super League was postponed due to the Olympics and will commence later this month. So I think it was to be expected that the CSL players don't show up for the German Open. Their CSL teams pay their wages, after all. Next year we'll be back to normal . Also note the absence of Joo, Mizutani, Kaii, Kan Yo who normally are CSL players, at least part-time.
