Ma Lin upset by Alexey Liventsov (4-3) 11-5,11-2,7-11,11-9,3-11,9-11,11-7 in the very first round of the main draw in the 2011 Harmony China Open ITTF Pro Tour event. Liventsov is ranked 120 in the world.


What must have really hurt is that he lost to a relatively unknown player in front of his home crowd.
