Revenge for Harimoto and finally a good world tour tournament for him after several mediocre results.

Uda wins against Pitchford, so there is an opportunity for a Harimoto revenge in the final. Usually he struggles hard against these similar aged young players so we will see if Harimoto can do better this time.

Harimoto is losing quite a lot of games in T League this season, he played much better in the previous season. It reflects somehow his mediocre world tour results recently and his struggle against Uda and Togami. Not looking good for Olympics.

Yes indeed, postponement is no realistic option, this event is way too big.

I know but Harimoto is so much better against senior players (excluding in Yun-Ju and Wang Chuqin), I would expect a win from him against most if not all much lower ranked youngsters. These youngsters might become his main threat in some years and if he cannot beat them he is in troubles. He is...

Every time Harimoto struggles so hard when he plays against young players no matter if it's Cho Daesong, Moregard, Uda, Togami, Lin Yun-Ju etc, it's a trauma for him.

Yes exactly, there was no pressure and she delivered. Olympics is a different matter.

Even if it's "only" T League...Harimoto still cannot handle young players of similar age, insane.

You don't have to spam every post with a random screenshot, it won't help you, it looks really dumb. One update every year isn't necessarily enough for a young player when they can grow up a couple of cm per year, it should be logical if you are clever enough.

Tleague is a bad source, according to this page Harimoto is only 172cm tall, his up to date size is 175cm. I doubt Kihara is up to date.

Great game from both players, Fan Zhendong with superior power but a very good tournament and match from Harimoto nonetheless.

This is not understandable. Kihara should have played 2 matches.

Is the game still running? We have no live stream and no live ticker either, in fact the entire T2 website is down. This is an absolute disgrace for the sport. Obviously they can't handle it.

Is it over, did Xu Xin won? My stream has gone offline.

Harimoto beats LIN Gaoyuan in a very close match 4-3, 3rd place for him.

Niwa played too passive later in the match, he only relied on unforced errors from Harimoto but he didn't make many errors.

This is so true. We need no ranking to see who is the more dangerous player for the chinese opponents. Hayata is much more powerful and taller than her japanese colleagues, she can compete with the chinese style.

This is the first win for Harimoto against Ovtcharov.

Interesting draw for Wang Chuqin. If he beats Jang Woojin he most likely meets Fan Zhendong in the second round.
