Winter will have a nightmare remembering chamiponship point.

There's some truth to that, but consider that Doo completely dominated her in the first three sets. Of course, Winter tried to play more FH, attack first, and that started to pay off. However, considering her age, I doubt she'd be as fast and able to control FH across the whole table. Generally...

I think her dominance will not last long. Anti is somewhat a forgotten rubber, and for years no top player in the world used it, which is why players learned more to play against pips. Recently, Mladenovic brought it back into play, and many players unfamiliar with this rubber had huge problems...

Good explanation. Just to mention there was one crutial point in the 4th set. Ito was leading I think 9:4 and Samara played very strong BH and FH to finish the ball. They were both laughing. Samara thought nice point at least this would be good to rememeber and started playing very relaxed. It...

Like somebody said in the past "just retired". Who is better player - of course Ito, but she needs to hire some mental coach. Also I cannot understand why she just can't play slower spinny from time to time. Risky shots are far less safer.

I completely do not understand the rule of wild cards. These Australian players would not pass even first round of qualification round. But these way they get more points just for participating.

I know it is post tournament but I wonder why Truls did not participate. I do not think he has injury or so...

Natalia is fighting. Good strategy against Ito.

I think it is bit more complicated. Usually, the players who are on top have the most fans. But it is not that simple, check out what happened to Cheng Meng during Olympics. The Chinese have developed guides who control doping. It is similar at football stadiums, where the guide begins and then...

I don't know if there is any other country in the world where the fans would show such disrespect for the winner. WMY must have felt terrible when she got the medal and people chanted her friend's name.

I heard it also in the interview after the match. I think it was at the Olympics. Also when he smashes the ball he swap the hand.

The behavior of the fans after the LJK victory was hideous, even during the interview. They cheer for one player throughout the match, just like Kuai played against Xintong. You can see that the Chinese cult of people on posters works.

exactly, but I see you are always in form.

I think Kao is going to be top 10 very soon. He is so fast and has ability to adapt his body to difficulties.

Anyone knows how is it possible that since they have chosen 10 top players, they are not seeded. Logically, they should play in the first rounds with the weaker ones outside the top 10 and only in the next rounds against each other.

Looks like 3:0 for Sweden if Dima doesn't beat Truls.

Nice to see Hayata reaching this stage but somehow I feel sorry for the Korean player.

I wish these North Korean players could play internationaly, they show great mentality. Finally Hayata stop smilling.

Not bad by Harimoto, but FZD is not in great shape, he missed a lot of BH. Still he is favourtie in this tournament, but it will be very tough to win it.
