World's-China: Vladimir Samsonov vs. Xu Xin 2009

[ingullar]

... It looks like Vladi gets broken on any stage of game. He starts simply perfect, but third set looks like critical for him... 34 years old it's already a lot for be unbeaten every time... But ANYWAY - Go, Vladi, GO!!!

[QuantumStates]

Samsonov is great. Very smooth play from him. There are similarities to Waldner for sure.

[Re1Mu2R3]

Yeah Xu Xin rocks! PWN that Old Fossil!!!

[propper332]

could somebody tell me wich rubbers xu xin is using?

[svjatoha]

He is using Stiga Boost XP on NCT Offensive Wood

[svjatoha]

XP is a newest rubber from boost series and according to description suits the style of XU Xin very well

[kvnngkronos]

Stiga had fashioned 4 rubbers for the Boost serie till now: TP, TC, TS and TX.

1:14 Samsonov powa!

Samsonov is getting too old

[ChenWeixing92]

thats just a plain stupid comment

i´ve now read many comments about ma lin,wang liqin and samsonov loosing because they are getting too old,but i´ve never seen them playing better than now before.

the only reason why they are loosing are the chinese youngsters who play really godlike.

dont blame it on the age it´s just too stupid

[malinwang]

yeah you are right, i've never seen samsonov agressive like this

[DoN253]

samsonov is too old .you only dont see his very bad footwork now. compare it with matches in the past you will see it.

[ChenWeixing92]

samsonov never had a good footwork compared to chinese players,also his footwork isn´t bad

[Almana77]

@ChenWeixing92 The proof: Vladi won the World Cup in 2009, and Ma Lin is still #2 of Chinese players when I write this so... You're right these comments are just stupid ^^

[Priceofexistence2007]

If Samsonov is getting too old, soon it's going to be Boll and Joo Vs China, as who else can beat them regularly?

[MCS12Methodic]

Should have been Boll instead of Samsonov.

He must have been busy or something...

[wabigor]

yes, he`s on holidays xD

Boll is taking a break ;)

great match by the way ttCrawsaive ^^

[GUSTAVOPINGPONG]
