We can use this thread as a means to display all the latest results, videos and news from Austrian Open! Can number 1 seed Dimitrij Ovtcharov prove his seeding. With the Chinese not present, we should see many great battles in the men's and women's singles. Europe, Korea, Japan, Hong Kong and Singapore have all sent strong players who all have a shot at winning the title. Last weeks Czech Open winner Wong Chung Ting enters as the number 7 seed, can he carry the momentum? Will we see a Dimitrij Ovtcharov vs Jun Mizutani final?

So, what are you predictions from each event?

Congratulations to Mizutani! He looked in very good form, a lot more aggressive than normal. His serves and receives were causing a lot of trouble for Ovtcharov.

The other thing in the final I noticed to was when Mizutani made the first attack he pretty much won the point on most occassions. However when Dimitrij made the first attack, Mizutani was able to hold off the attacks with his supern blocking ability. Sensational play!
