Thats the worst loss Sabine has had since using the anti. She missed a ton of shots but her quality was also not working vs Diaz who countered a lot of her shots aggressively and messed her up with her serves. Would be nice to see if this was a fluke or not. Amazing demolition.

Another weird result at Ljubljana. Shinozuka on fire.. the Lebruns are all gone... is it a post national championships fatigue?

 

[pingpongnerd]

Hugo mopped the floor with his towel at 3:2, then used it again to wipe his face at 3:3.
Yuck.

 

[pingpongnerd]

Does it again now at 5:4. That is gross

Odo: no, not yet...

Wow so many upsets ~

Gauzy doesn't care about hometown heroes. Shame on him.

Hayata survives hitting the donkey of the day at 2-2, 10-6. Can Zhu Yuling and Dima survive? PS: Yes they can.

The next round should be later today I think, and in it Kuo gets a chance to sweep the German National first team as he faces Dang Qiu. He has already beaten Duda and Franziska.

 

[NextLevel]

Watching Fan Shuhan beat Sato yesterday was a breath of fresh air given how easily Sato beats the layer below the top Asians. Following it up with a victory over Kuai Man is good. Now she gets Hayata. A critical mqtch for both players.

Diaz vs Harimoto should be as predictable as expected. Harimoto hasnt played great at this event but she alwaus delivers the right result.

Shin Yubin generally doesn't enjoy playing Kihara when Kihara is in form. I don't expect that to change as Kihara is in form.

Zhu Yuling gets Xunyao Shi. Xunyao Shi is arguably the better athlete but I dont see her having a path through Zhu Yuling's wall. Breaking down Zhu Yuling on backhand is extremely difficult. Ask Miwa. And Shi is jot stable enough on forehand to switch

Gauzy is asked to avenge Felix vs Shinozuka. I do not think vengeance is his.

Peng beat Calderano the last time they played. Peng is a streaky player and while Hugo is the better player, I like Peng's streak and pick it

Kuo tries to complete his domination of Germany at this event. I think the most stable Gwrman is Dang and that Dang will have answers for Kuo.

Finally, we havw Dima vs Togami. I think Dima has expended enough energy vs Uda. Togami will make it physical and I think that will be enough to get Togami through.

And those are my picks.

In case anyone wants a reminder of recent results at this event...

 

[piligrim]

Many big upsets happened on table 1.
Kuo beat Aruna and Duda, Shinozuka beat An and Felix, Manush beat Kanak, Darko almost lost to Hung and lost to Gauzy.
Next matches on table 1 will be Shinozuka with Gauzy and XP with Calderano.
Shimozuka and XP should win

Fan SHuhan wants to go to LA 2028 lol....

If she can win this tournament after all other CNT players lose, she will get many more chances to play in the future for sure. But CNT never picks a player based on a tournament even a WTTC win.

Fan SHuhan wants to go to LA 2028 lol....

Does she play like a female/(or lighter version) of WRB? First time paying attention to this player. She played with so wide angles, good mentality (for now)... That forehand slow spinny loop and backhand flip are good. Will follow her more in the future.

 

[Takkyu_wa_inochi]

Miwa finished quickly

 

[pingpongnerd]

Ridiculous backhand by Gauzy on match point

Gauzy and Calderano decided they should win instead...

No titles for the CNT at SC Ljubljana. MD was there last chance but Togami/Shinozuka take it 3-2,11-5. Harimoto/Hayata take the WD title over Japanese compatriots Odo/Yokoi.
