    Zhang Nan has proven himself a superb XD and MD player, without a shadow of a doubt.

    No wonder Li Yongbo much appreciates and thinks highly of Zhang Nan.

    That was better than many of the matches seen between the big 4 XD pairs

    Fortunately Zhao Yunlei wasn't tempted to go full time into politics, it'll be such a waste of her immense talents.

    Good match. I hope there will be no WO in the WD, cause then YYS will not get much rest until his MD.

    the poor umpire didn't dampen an excellent mixed doubles match.

    Z/Z as a XD pair is a surest bet for gold medal in Rio 2016. I don't think LYB would have Zhang Nan play MD for Rio 2016.

    this is what sportsmanship is about. players from both sides shakes hand and tap each other congratulating not only the win but a match well played.

    USD55,300 for the winner, that's more like it but still peanuts compared with Tennis Grand Slams prize money. A long,long way to go.

    With her many gold medals/titles and her political office, I think she can become the next Head Coach when LYB retires!!!

    The other week, Cai Yun said he'd partner Fu Haifeng for the Rio Olynpics but just the other day he changed his mind and said he'd pair up with Lu Kai instead. That leaves Fu HF with Zhang Nan, his current regular partner, and CHN really need a very good MD pair for the Olympics. Let's wait for the start of the OG qualification cycle to commence and we'll know the answer.

    Will the 17-yr-old Akane win her maiden PSS title? We shall see.
