[@julienschmitt-i1x]

What does the rule say ( if there is one ) ? Are you allowed to "chole"/speak before a point is finished ? It happened during the 2nd point of the fifth set .. FZD did it

[@nicolastokarski7995]

That mistake from the referee is unacceptable... its obvious you lost the point if you yell during the point before it end i hope there will be a claim, what if the rules does not apply for everyone? Imagine Harimoto yelling non stop until he wins?

[@starking1187]

Fzd thought he hit a good shot which is away from the reach of Alexis and he won thought he won the point. He just didn't know that Alexis was able to touch the ball so towards the end of the cho, you can hear him soften up a bit because it would be awkward if he won the he didn't win the point but choed. There is definitely no such rule that says you cannot cho before the point won. Plus, it wasn't even and intentionally cho. Felix is just trying to find any sorts of excuses to get a point if not they will be 0-2 down in the fifth. I am glad that FZD not only didn't get affected by this and choed EVEN louder after. Bravo!

China will do everything to remain dominant including cheating but no one cares because they’re the best right ? 😂

[@CristopherKiri]

Geez those boys are hella exciting to watch.

[@LeChatpo]

First of all I would like to point out that what I am about to say does not change the undeniable talent of the two Chinese players, however, on the last set, we can clearly see two or three unacceptable things (as a referee even at a lower level, on the first serve it's a warning and on the second, I ask to serve again) We can see that the ball is hidden by Chuqin's chest around 8 minutes, Fan speaks during a decisive point and distracts Alexis. The result of the match may have been the same, but frankly it's sad to see such a wobbly aberration at this level of the competition and a questionable fairplay on the part of the Chinese. Not to mention the fact that the live transmission was cut in the middle of my country by the WTT and coincidentally I'm French, but hey, I think it's a coincidence. :)

[@jopoulos]

[@dmitrikonnov922]

Honestly, this happens very often esp. in doubles. Do you remember Xu Xin serving in critical situations? He always hid the tossed ball with his head and shoulder. But it's Xuperman? What umpire would dare penalizing it eps. in the final game. So did Ma Long. But he is the GOAT.
