Respect for Timo Boll. Great tactical play. Had ML in all sorts of problem. Last game timo had 8-3 lead but ML somehow crept back in.

At the same time feeling bad for Dima. He somehow can't perform to his best at the biggest tournaments. Next looking forward to Harimoto vs XX. I somehow want to see ML vs Harimoto in semis.

Great battle! I'm about to interview Boll anyone got any questions?
See if you can get him to do a Vulcan hand salute to the camera. :D

Uhm, yeah...

Pumped for the Xu Xin VS Harimoto match. Xin's comment about this being an "adult tournament" was priceless. This should be amazing.

tough for the Japanese. They play very very well, every game so far is decided by the minimal 2 point margin, but the Chinese are 3 - nil up !


Yeah its a pity, consistency and minimal unforced errors is what separates chinese doubles from the rest of the world, lots of furious attacks from japan went wasted but going passive is a worse option.

I think slowly but gradually maybe we will witness korea or japan beating china even on team events
