2011 China Masters: Finals on Sunday 18-September

[nokh88]

No, i dont think its going to be grueling match, CJ lost WR points in recent WC....so I predit it will go CJ's way in straight game with less than 1 hour duration. LYB dont want his players playing in Japan with a fatigued body.

MD, I think CY/FHF will win again.....with some umpire and line judges help !!

Walkovers. Don't discount the possibilities.

World champ Lin Dan suffers rare home defeat

PETALING JAYA: Four-time world champion Lin Dan of China suffered a rare home defeat, going down 23-25, 15-21 to compatriot Chen Jin in the semi-finals of the China Masters in Changzhou yesterday.
The 28-year-old Lin Dan battled for 45 minutes before losing to Chen Jin. It was Lin Dan’s seventh loss to Chen Jin in 18 meetings but it was his first exit in front of his adoring home fans in five years.
World number six Chen Jin will take on Chen Long in today’s final and a win will certainly strengthen his bid to be the top four ranked players in the world.
China are hoping to win three tickets in the men’s singles for next year’s Olympics.
A country can have a maximum of three representatives if all of them are ranked in the world’s top four.
Lin Dan is currently ranked fourth followed by Chen Jin in fifth spot.
It was also a great day for China as they are also assured of titles in the women’s singles and women’s doubles events.

It is indeed rare.

Perhaps today umpire for CY/FHF vs LYD/JJS will be more pro and fair jugdement. Just realized when CY/FHF vs KKJ/SBC and CY/FHF vs KSH/YYS same umpire. Mr. Zhou Jie. 2x give critical point to China. If today still Mr. Zhou Jie still MD umpire, then we already know who will be MD champion at Li Ning China Master 2011.
