“I hope they will see what a French atmosphere is,” smiles Simon Gauzy.
«The good thing is that we’ve been playing them regularly lately, which is a pretty good sign. Felix played Fan Zhendong in the singles semi-finals, for example. That means we’re here, at the end of the tournament. After that, it’s certain that we’re facing the greatest player of all time (Ma Long, Editor’s note), maybe the second greatest player of all time (Fan Zhnedong, Editor’s note)” confided Simon Gauzy.
Before adding: “Finally, the third is in the making (Wang Chuqin). They are a fantastic team. But the more we have the opportunity to play them, the more we can progress and have the possibility, one day, to surprise them. And I hope that during this semi-final, they will see what a French atmosphere is. (smile)”.
