<html>Yang Yang or Gade ?<p>Zhao or Taufik ?<p>Park/Kim or Ha Tae Kwon/Kim Dong Moon ?<p>My own opinion is that the doubles game seems a lot quicker than a few years ago. But I'm not sure about the singles. I can't see anyone better than Yang Yang or Zhao. </html>
<html>Yang Yang beats Gade in two sets. Gade loses the first game by several points (8-15, maybe) because he tries for too many early winners during rallies, not realizing how fast Yang Yang is and how good his court coverage is. The second game is a bit closer, but Gade has trouble adjusting to Yang Yang's change of pace.<p>Zhao Jinhua takes three sets to beat Taufik, because Taufik's net play gives him an advantage. Zhao comes back and wins by rallying longer and wearing Taufik down.<p>Don't you wish Hertz rented time machines?<p><p><p>: Yang Yang or Gade ?<p>: Zhao or Taufik ?<p>: Park/Kim or Ha Tae Kwon/Kim Dong Moon ?<p>: My own opinion is that the doubles game seems a lot quicker than a few years ago.
