Tayfun Tasdemir is the leader in the group, but he has to beat Jae Ho Cho to seed.

Tayfun Tasdemir is the leader of his group after two rounds and one more to go. He's followed in the rank by the Koreans Dong-Koong Kang and Jae Ho Cho with two match points and Jean Christoph Roux with one point. The Turk nevertheless is far from qualification.
Tomorrow the decision will fall in the round in which all four players still have a chance.

Tayfun Tasdemir will be seeded if he winst his last game against Jae Ho Cho, but will be the target of the pursuers. Dong Koong Kang has two match points and at least needs a win against Jean Christoph Roux to force the qualification.

How much the players in this group are in balance, was seen in the scores of 50-50 and 50-49. Tonight Jae Ho Cho, the only loser in the first round, beat Jean Christophe Roux 50-38 in 34 innings.

Tayfun Tasdemir played after his draw in the afternoon again a strong match against Dong Koong Kang. The Turk was already close to the finish in 25 innings, but needed five more to end. His Korean opponent missed some crucial points in the closing innings, that's why he lost  50-44 in 30.

The ranking after two matches is:
1 Tasdemir, 3 match points, average of 1.666.
2 Kang, 2, 1.342
3 Cho, 2, 1.337
4 Roux, 1, 1.375.
Tomorrow will be played at 14.00:
Tasdemir-Cho, Kang-Roux.
