    Fan's power, angle and placement technique has improved to a new height, a level above everyone else. XX was able to do power push with his BH to create surprises against Jang and Zhou in the previous games. But Fan's shot is just so powerful and fast in rhythm that XX has little time to recover.
    Great performance from both sides.

      medulla oblongata Idk why anyone would say XX would win considering the last few times they went head to head.XX is my favorite player and not even I would say he could beat FZD even with this improved and impressive RPB. I’m not sure anyone can beat FZD right now considering his speed,power and great form.ML doesn’t seem to be in top form rn so I doubt even he could beat FZD.

True, Ma Lin has great forehand and Wang Hao has great RPB.

    The problem Xu Xin has when he faces opponents like Ma Long or FZD is his short game. For a penholder, it's simply not good enough. Fan got about a hundred 5th ball attacks. And since he can't banana as well as FZD...well there's not much he can do other than the forehand-forehand rallies.

    Hello ITTF, can we have back the 38mm ball please? The big ball is so tennis but I would like to watch TABLE tennis.

      I think big ball is probably not good to European players but let the level of every player closer, so just looks like it's good to European player😂Because European players are also change their styles to be faster and faster. And the new ball is probably only good to Japanese young players.....

      @@nw4101 agree. 38mms needs intellect and skill to read and manage spin and tactics but now, whoever can smash hardest and scamper after the ball wins. In the past, even if you smash a spinning ball, it would surely fly out of the table.

      Yes. And it's a lot cheaper than today's plastic balls.

      That's just so overexaggerated. Crushing is something like 4 - 0 and every set like 11:5
