Hi coach,

Why zhang jike, ma long and wang hao didn't play at the Harmony China Open 2012?

Hi David,

It is too close to the Olympics.  It is mentally very difficult for players to build themselves again after a major event like the Olympics.

If they played they would risk not being totally focused.
