“Firstly, in my opinion, she is one of the tougher opponents. Before this match, I thought of possibility of losing or playing to a deciding game. I did my full preparation for the match. I thought of losing since I am not familiar with her play and she plays faster and makes many changes; in the first game I tried to adapt. I led three-one in the match but I had been a little lucky; when Japanese players play against Chinese players, they tend to make a really big effort. I got flustered after she played few good points. At three-three, when 5-5 in deciding game, I played firmly and told myself that I can’t lose. The difficulty was in the deciding game when 3-all, the umpire said the time of my preparation to serve was too long and gave one point to Ito, I took this seriously. I told myself the most important thing is to win the match and not lose.” Sun Yingsha

Jakub DYJAS (POL) after losing 2-4 to XU Xin (CHN) in Men’s Singles Round 1:

"Xu Xin is a great player, for sure stronger than me. The key of the game was his very good service. I couldn't receive it very well. In the rallies I felt a little bit uncomfortable, because of the Chinese rubber are jumping much higher. But I think I played very well here in Germany und I still need to keep training and practicing."
Yet another opinion from a pro that equipment makes all the difference.

I know it's all in the eye of the beholder, but Mizutani just looks completely doomed from the start, as if he's destined to lose. Tomo, for example, looked far more confident against Fan Zhendong.
That is true. Maybe it is because it was second time in a row when he faces chinese top player just in second round. I remember he was fighting well at the Olympics with Ma Long.
