so far we have...

 

Chinese clean sweep in the women's singles (but we're also going to have a new world champion, at least)...

 

1 all Chinese and 1 all Japanese semifinals (which means that we're going to have a CHN vs JPN final) in the women's doubles...

 

1 all Chinese and 1 Europe (FRA or SWE) vs KOR semifinals in the men's singles...

 

1 all Chinese and 1 all European (POR vs a composite ESP&ROU pair) semifinals in the men's doubles...

 

and a CHN vs JPN final in the mixed doubles (with the bronze medals gone to another CHN and to a GER pairs)...

 

this means that CHN are still on course for a clean sweep of the world titles, that Europe will end up winning 4 medals overall (2 in Olympic disciplines from 2 different Nations, GER and FRA or SWE) and that Asia will win in the end 16 medals (1x KOR, 3x JPN and 12x CHN)...

and the first 2 Gold Medals went to...guess who? yessss, you're right! :CHN China is the correct answer...:p

 

:CHN Liu Shiwen is the new star of women's Table Tennis...after winning the Mixed Doubles tournament with her partner Xu Xin, she doubled up her Gold Medal collection by winning the most prestigious title, the (women's) Singles by beating her teammate Chen Meng in the final match (4-2 the score)...

 

meanwhile, :CHN Ma Long won the men's Doubles tournament (with his partner Wang Chuqin) by beating the "strange" :ESP:ROU Spanish/Romanian pair formed by Alvaro Robles and Ovidiu Ionescu (4-1 the score) in the final match and now he is also once again in the men's Singles Gold Medal match, waiting for the winner of the second semifinal (still running, 2 sets apiece while writing) between :KOR An Jae Hyun and :SWE Matthias Falck...

 

the women's Doubles Gold Medal match is still to be played (between CHN and JPN)...

Matthias Falck qualifies to the final :thumbup: i don't think he can be a real threat for Ma long to win 3rd consecutive title 

Well,he was beating Chinese players in the past,so,even though Ma is different universe i wouldnt be surprised to see 6 or 7 sets. And Ma's victory,to be precise.

    • Atalanta is probably playing the most beautiful football in Europe right now: spectacular and effective. It's nice to watch and they don't have to spend a lot of money for it.   Inter is playing very economically. It's not impressive but it's consistently collecting points. It's also the only team in the Champions League that hasn't conceded a goal this season.   Milan played very poorly yesterday but they won. They have 9 points and are close to qualifying for the play-offs.

    • Unfortunate, but it doesn't change the fact that I'm looking forward to Thursday evening, when the team captain's meeting is over and we have our very first World Cup start list of the season. Always a cool moment to see who's there and everything  
    • Today I unpacked some of the boxes in which we have put my way too many books to move to our house, and I came across these beauty's I hadn't seen for a while     Absolutely recommended, tough to get for a decent price, but they are such an interesting read with lots of very interesting little stories! Still looking for at least 1900, 1904 and 1906, but not really in the right moment to spend money on that now, so the wait goes on
