Hi Oliver,

This is a good question. I think Ma Long has a good chance but it is still a bit far off I think to see who will be in good form at that time.

Even Timo Boll has a chance - he would have to beat only 1 Chinese....

Oliver Posted 13 years ago

bolls too old. he doesnt stand much of a xhance against ma long zhang jike etc

Arnon Thaicharoen Posted 13 years ago

I would place my bet on either Ma Long or Zhang Jike. Both are in top shape recently.

Ian Costello Posted 13 years ago

What about Ma Lin? He's 32 and won the Volckswagon Open last year.

Kevin Z Posted 13 years ago

I saw that Wang Hao and Zhang Jike signed up for the olympics. Does that mean Ma Long isn't going to enter? Or are there other possibilities?

andrew brand Posted 13 years ago

i hope Michael Maze is entering the olympics, when on form he is great to watch, and can beat anyone on his day.

ashley koh jia jhin Posted 13 years ago

I am voting for Timo Boll to get gold.

Galen Corvan- Hughes Posted 13 years ago

There is more than 2, remember last olympics, china had three men competing. The ittf will pick another player to participate, so ma lin might make it.

Atanas Atanasov Posted 13 years ago

No way! Zhang Jike is the secure olympic champion!!

Judah Cagas Posted 13 years ago

Ma Long will not play in singles. he will just play in the teams event.

wanghao and zhang jike will play in singles. But I am rooting for wang hao to win
