Who is Gao Han (CHN)? He beat Tian HW easily in straight game, and Tien HW beat 3rd seeded Tommy yesterday...

2008 WJC silver medalist, lost to Wang Zhengming. No notable achievement so far at senior stage from this man. Pretty surprising result that the more talented Tian HW lost to his older compatriot.
I watched couple of games with Gao, he is a good player, but not very solid and consistent. I guess things were working well for him against Houwei today.
You kidding? She's playing like a top 10 player. Most top 10 players would lose to Li Han often. It's no shame, she's only 16 and half her size.
In saying that, she's taken a set off her, and likely to win now. I had put money Yamaguchi would make the semi, so looks like I'm not far off.
Han Li is going to lose on fitness to Akane whose court coverage and retrieving ability is very good.
When she meet Ji Hyun Sung in the semi, will the Korean judge give her another unearned set as in the Japan semi against TTY? If so, my money is on her as the champion.
Suddenly, all the livestreams are broken. 5 MP and Han Li going to screw it up? That's the price for inferior fitness.
Wow you are harsh. You do realise Yao Xue thrashed that "superb defensive and rallying player" the last time they met?
