Great editing. The video flowed very nicely between the points and enough was shown at the end to capture the emotion of the match. Well done, TTprovider.
Koki is playing smart here, he knows he can't beat Ma' with power to power shots so he use his quick flick and back hand to do the trick.. and he is not just back spinning the ball with a normal side spin but with a twist of underspin as well... Ma' is confuse with the ball co'z when he hits it, the ball goes long.... One good sample of control over power.... Kudos to KOKI for putting a big question to Ma's mind :D I still love Ma for being a brilliant player :D
koki niwa nailed ma long on his backhand very good he had no chance to step around that much as he usually does and was better in backhand to backhand rallies very good stuff from niwa and that happy face at the and was just priceless
Koki Niwa played great, very happy for him
Well done to Koki Niwa for providing us with a very entertaining match!
(and to ttprovider as well xD)
this kid blindsided Ma Long big time! Unbelievable that he's able to confound Ma Long w/his style! The world's #1 player we're talking abt here!
Almost crying...tears of joy for Koki...he's come a long way...
just goes to show no matter how good you are, one time or another someone will still beat you. great playing by koki niwa

this was a high quality win
This match set back Ma Long's career by four years... But, in just one more week, it'll finally be his turn to get a grand slam!
first time I saw a Japanese player in the modern era beating a Chinese top-ranked player
Happy for Koki Niwa. :)
