Rodney Morris (USA) He's always hungry!!! Mark Gray (England) Stay focused Mark you got this one. Fransisco Bustamante (Phillipines) Of course! Imran Majid (England) Take no prisoners Imran. Ralf Souquet (Germany) Poetry in motion! Tony Drago (Malta) Can do attitude. Will do ability. Christian Reimering (Germany) Just a hunch here. Daryl Peach (England) No douibt on this one.

I dont think souquet is a guarantee to win his first round match, I think that Ko Pin-Yi could cause a few upsets.

Yeah, Ko Pin Yi is one of if not the best player in the World right now, but Ralf has loads of experience in the States. ----------------- Chris @ Pro9
