Thanx for that, Marcos!  It's unbelievable how fast Moregardh has
become.  That said, I still think he's overranked--he's not the real
World's no. 2.  I think Matsushima Sora should be the no. 2. We'll see
how that plays out over the rest of this year...

And I think Matsushima plays best when Coach Morizono is in his corner. 
Coach Morizono has that samurai energy that the young guys on the
Japanese Men's Team need.  With all due respect to Coach Kishikawa, I
think, at the next ITTF team event, Morizono Masataka should be the
"bench coach" as they say in Japan.   They should have him coaching the
men.

"Kishi" is not bad--he just doesn't have the right energy.  He's the
"head coach"--he should be coaching the coaches--not the players.

Also in this team match, Fan Zhendong lost to both Lebrun brothers 3-0, so Truls (and Darko Jorgic at #3, in his final match with the club) bailed him out. FZD playing with Zyre may have been a factor.

Btw, for those planning to go to the US Smash in the LA area, the priority presale just started.
For the finals session on July 5, I see prices between $64 and $812

Yes, the event will be held up in the mountains of Ontario, CA which is practically a suburb of LA.  Due to the thin air, the conditions should be fast.

The event starts June 26 and goes on thru July 5th.
