You know the crazy thing here with Chen Hong is that he is 4 in the world and currently on that world ranking he would qualify for the Olympics in his home country Beijing!!

Currently Bao Chunlai and Chen Jin ranked 6th and 7th respectively in the world would not qualify....

Wonder if there is an element of politics involved in this "retirement"

Lee Hyun II at 11 in the world and the highest ranked Korean is odds on to qualify for the Olympics...!!

Maybe there are side reasons here....? Injury or whatever
