FTW vs Ishikawa
G1 3:7, 6:7, 6:8, 7:8, 7:9, 7:10, 8:10, 9:10(sideline edge), 10:10, SHEET, 11:10, 12:10
G2 1:1, 2:1, 2:9, 4:9, 4:10, 6:10, 7:11. Phew...
G3 1:1, 3:1, 4:1, FTW is using the angle here, 5:1, 5:2, Ishikawa catching on, 5:3, 6:3, 6:4, 7:4, FTW going for Ishikawa's BH, 7:5, 7:6, TO for FTW, 8:6, 8:7, so many nets and edges, 9:7, 9:8, 10:8, 11:8. ARGH
G4 1:1, 3:1, 3:3, 4:3, 5:3, Ishikawa losing her cool, 6:3, TO for Ishikawa, 6:4, 7:4, 7:5, 7:6, 8:6, 8:8, 8:9(Ishikawa's dripping net), 8:11.
G5 1:1, 3:1, 5:1, Ishikawa playing like poop, 5:2, 6:2, 6:3, 8:3, 8:4, 8:6, FTW catching breath, 8:8, 8:9, 8:10(no sideline edge?), 8:11.
Age is catching up
G6 4:0, 4:1, 5:1, 5:2, 5:3, 6:3, 6:4, 6:5, 6:6, 8:6, 8:7, 8:8, 9:8, 9:9, 10:9, 10:10, 11:10, 12:10(FTW's endline edge).
Both coaches did their jobs and called the TO at the right moment. FTW got her tactics right but stamina couldn't last until the very end.
G7 1:1, 2:1, 2:2, 3:2, 3:3, 5:3, 6:3, 6:4, 6:5, 7:5, 7:7, 8:7, 9:7, 10:7, 11:7
*Bleep* retire, Ishikawa!

Hirano: Arigato Feng Tianwe-san!
Kasumi: Feng, you're surely playing Olympics Singles. Why are you denying me my chance!

well, it seems hirano and ishikawa arent really olympic material, when they even choke as best as they can to even qualify for the event xD Imagine the pressure at the olympics itself

Lost in translation.
FTW: I get the feeling of making a comeback as a 33-year-old

Hirano, born for the majors, straight to the SF if nothing goes wrong. Ishikawa always has a hard time playing FTW in singles, but Meshref is no pushover either.

unfortunately it is true
I hope they really make an extra effort to work on these issues else Japan won't even lose to China but way before

not much they can do about it. The players have to figure it out. Im sure they already have everthing possible to support them. Its not that other players other then Ishikawa and Hirano are better in general. Only Hayata comes close, but even as a hayata fan I have to say, then i wouldnt rate her higher then Ishikawa or Hirano in singles play. She is also quite inconsistant.

Best chance indeed. The way she adapted in G6 and G7 was simply beyond Ishikawa and Solja. Not skills, not tactics, not age, just tenacity.

And with the biggest fu yet, Hirano’s lead shrivels to a mere 70 pts, with only 2 majors and a T2 left. Despite finally getting her own quarter, has the easiest draw towards Semi, she just couldn’t hold it together under pressure. What’s the point of sending her to Tokyo ? Other than skills, mental toughness counts just as much, maybe even more. I just do not see the ”steadfastness under fire” in her to put up a meaningful fight. From here on I really don’t care whether Ishikawa or Hirano gets picked. They’re both impediments to the 2020 dream.The headless chicken description should be applied to her in 2 parts, headless & chicken.
Ito is the REAL thing, the ONLY real thing for Japan now. Hayata, keep developing, your time will come after the pretenders fade away, soon.
