Good sportmanship. Thanks for upload.

Both guys are 6' 1" and Oh Sang's style is counter driver, close to the table without flashy long loops like JiKe or Ma Long; and he reaches for the ball rather than trying to step around for each ball using forehand loops and mashes like the China champions. So Oh Sang doesn't seem to be trying very hard to the casual visitor but he beat all the US players to reach the final using this compact style.

This is the LA Open, not the US Open.

I can't believe some things i read around here. Oh Sang Eun style is very smooth and a bit "passive" but it's OBVIOUS that he wasn't playing serious FROM THE VERY FIRST POINT. Dimitrij was pretending a bit more but he wasn´t either. Some people should, at least, watch more matches before writing. Funny video, though. Thanks for the upload

Exibition it may have been at the end, but I wager both of them were really trying to win this.

[@gfrontosa]

That's your opinion and you are entitled to that.

[@frickenbastich]

Why are these guys screwing around? Is this an exhibition match?

[@prjoeyj]

Gerry, what type of camera do you use?

[@PingGSY]

He asked you A question ;) I see what he means. Its good to see them having a good time :)

[@gfrontosa]

What's funny about that? When Thomas Keinath travelled in the past, his girlfriend was also coaching him.

[@frickenbastich]

What is your opinion?

[@3isico]

Why do these big names compete at this relatively small tournament? Considdering they have to play so many matches already during the season? Trying to stay in shape or is there some big price money to win?

[@gfrontosa]

$10,000 for the first prize and he is asking if this is an exhibition?

[@gfrontosa]

I use 3 Sony HD hard drive based cameras.

[@stilliving]

he's just asking - they really did start doing that at the end. It really was strange. Style of play, expressions on faces, body language, everything seemed to change at the end. hmm

[@Endingblizzad]

the last few points, Dim gave him screw around make the score from 10:3 to 10:8~

[@Chinesekage]

prize money

[@live2ridegsxr1000]

This is an exhibition for sure. If it's in the states, like the title says, they are playing for nothing.

[@Sharkijitsu]
