Franziska performed incredibly throughout the event i look forward to what’s next for him. On another note, Wang Chuqin seems to be the future of the sport he’s otherworldly

Loosing to Wang is absolutely no shame at all. Wang is the best in the world right now theres no doubt about it. Franz can really be proud of himself, what a tournament it was, great play! Hope he can keep up this strong performance for the next future events and maybe reach a top 10 placement in the world ranking, who knows? :)

The mental strength of Patrick is fantastic. Playing the 4th set as if it were the first, never backing down still trying to play at his top lvl even being 0-3 down, a true professional.

@tommymorgan9624 He was playing with nothing to lose. When it came to the final, he realized that he now had something to lose and didn't want to lose the final and ended up didn't play like he did before the final. That's human. When you realize you have nothing to lose, you play differently. You just wack the ball and the opponent will be bewildered with the quality and power of your returns.

Respect to Patrick for reaching the final of this WTT Saudi Smash!!! After beating Fan Zhendong 3-2 and then also Jang Woojin 4-3 in a very tight semi, it is really no shame to lose a final like this against the worlds very best player! He came back from a devastating 3-0 lead of the Lionheart, winning 2 sets, before the eventual 4-2 Wang Chuqin victory!!! Nice tournament it was for Franz, world no. 7 he will be next week and getting better all the time! Congratulations to them both!🎉🎉👏👏🏓🇨🇳🆚️🇩🇪

Wang Chuqin's triple crown at Saudi Smash 2024 is legendary! His precision and power are unmatched. 🏓🎉

Franz played phenomenal 🙌🏻👏🏻

Nice friendly and collegial handshake at the end.

If anyone has the chops to dethrone ML as the GOAT, its this dude. Most complete player since… ML :)

Impressive tournament from Franziska. He played a little bit to cautios in the first two games, almost scared. Too bad he did not win but Wang Chuqin is still Wang Chuqin.

takes a lot of humbleness to lose and give a smile and a congratulation to the rival

It's amazing how Patrick Franziska has been getting better and better lately. Hopefully, he'll become World N.1 sometime.

Big performance by both players. Wang Chuqin plays so relentless and fast, really nice. Und Patrick, du hast spitze gespielt! Wirklich stark! Dieses schnelle Spiel ist einfach nur nur noch krass von den Chinesen. So schnell kann man bei uns in Schland wahrscheinlich gar nicht spielen/trainieren. Im 3. und 4. Satz hast du angegriffen und ihn in die Enge getrieben, dann hat er die Fehler gemacht.

What a way to finish!

Verrückt bester Deutscher in der Weltrangliste jetzt und trotzdem nicht unter den ersten 3 Leuten für Olympia. Der Bundestrainer hat nach Bauchgefühl ausgewählt 😂 wusste gar nicht, dass es nicht mehr nach Leistung sondern nach Bauchgefühl und den vergangenen Leistungen geht anhand die Spieler ausgewählt werden 😂 richtig merkwürdige Entscheidung. Man hätte echt noch warten müssen mit der Nominierung wenn das denn möglich gewesen wäre, einfach die letzten 2 Turniere abwarten und dann entscheiden. Schade für Franziska, er hätte es verdient gehabt und ich glaube das weiß jeder der anderen 3 Spieler auch 😅Glück für sie

Patrick very clutch in this match. Wow

It is an extremely stupid rules there are only two participants in the Olympic games. Countries like Germany, Sweden, France and Korea deserve more than 2, let alone powerhouse like China. On the "flip side", China gets way easier time getting to the basketball tournament than European countries, even though a lot of them are far stronger. However, I don't see how on Earth is that a good arrangement for anyone involved. Wouldn't China prefer to have one more medal in TT than being destroyed in basketball (I'm not sure if they are in the next tournament, but talking in general). Wouldn't Latvia prefer to have an easier path to basketball tournament than easier path to table tennis tournament? It's a completely insane system which doesn't help anyone, but sadly Germans will have to leave a world class player home and China will have to leave either a World Cup champion, World championship champion or the best player in the world home
