yesssss Franziska! amazing run.... lets see this final!!!!

Odo was so good vs Winter, was in awe of her relentless attacks once she got going. And Hina with a chance to repeat, can't wait for this one either.

Harimoto franziska final, it will be interesting. I think Harimoto is going to win it
I don't think Franziska has ever beaten Harimoto, if so it was a long time ago. But two WTT Champions final should get Franziska into the top 10 or aomething, i havent checked, it is just my gut feeling about the amount of points.

That he could do this on surfaces and balls from Tibhar to Donic is impressive.

And he mentions Lars on his thank you. Obviously something is working. I am always surprised how much he isnsurrpised when he wins. It is like his success surprises him. But maybe hr isnjuat being humble as is his general nature.

Franziska won their last match 3-2. His first and only win. That is not a good omen for Franziska lol. He needs to call Xue Fei now...
If I am Franziska's coach, I would ask him to not pivot too much and always prepare one more stroke. Harimoto's blocking is pretty good. Franziska had won many tough matches this past two weeks. I think he might be able to do it. Harimoto tends to relax after a 7 game match.

Most likely winner: Hayata and Harimoto. But hope Franziska can do it. If he can keep the fighting spirit all the time, I think he will be the first German WTT champion winner.

Togami ended up in the best possible branch to go to his first Champions finals but fell short again. Game 5 and 6 he was too shaky, but props to him for trying to fight his way back though

Watching the women's final I'm just following in my head an imaginary situation in which Hayata does make it to LA's women's singles' final against SYS and that's the only time in her whole career she beats her.
It has happened before (Ryu Seung Min with Wang Hao) and I wonder what would @zeio say then.
I bet you Wang Hao still has nightmares about that final and would gladly trade all his wins with RSM to get only that one.
