Harimoto lost the match not because of the FH.
He began the match with the mood to sprint cross the park and first 2 games were just like that.
But he had no idea about what tactics he would need against that oponent.
The first time Harimoto reminded that there is something called Tactics was just when Pletea had the game point for the 3rd game.
The real crisis began with the 5th game. Harimoto couldn't deal with Pletea's serves. Discouraged, confused, with lost concentration, and - for me the most important - not proper coaching, no tactical help how to deal with the oponent, and no technical advise how to deal with the oponent style.The Following User Likes langel's Post:

Harimoto always struggles against the young guns, no matter if it's Pletea, Moregards, Wang Chuqin, Lin Yun-Ju, it's a trauma.

Ito vs Hayata.
G4, Hayata 10:8, 10:12. I gotta wonder why Hayata didn't serve the reverse pendulum.
Speak of the devil. She just did it at 4:6 in G5 and lost the point. TO. Another one at 4:7, drifted long and got killed. 7:11.
Hayata gotta solve the issues of serve-and-attack and the 2nd-and-4th strokes. She had a hard time getting past the early phase on equal footing.The Following 2 Users Like zeio's Post:

I don't care what anyone else says, Liu Weishan's tomahawk serve should be illegal. It's just too OP. It's like DN's tomahawk on steroid.

If Ishikawa doesn't make the singles, there's still a chance for Hayata.
And then for Harimoto, dropping game 3 gave Pletea a 2nd chance.

“That is for sure the biggest win of my career. We have been playing against each other since we were juniors, which helped me today. I know his style and I felt he was a little bit nervous today. Also, I played really well today, my tactics were perfect. I was down 0-2 and 3-6 but I managed to win the game. Then I was 1-3 down but I was still fighting. I knew that it was not over. I started well in the fifth game then I also won the sixth. And in the seventh game, you never know what happens. I also felt big support from the spectators and I would like to thank them. I hope that tomorrow I will play well again.” – Cristian PleteaThe Following 2 Users Like zeio's Post:

Time capsule for 2028. Seeing XF 2:4 DO now, and ZZH 2:4 Harimoto last week, I hereby make the gloomy prediction that the men's top 10 will be void of any penholders.

Oh crap I really thought they were streaming it.. I saw multiple cameras pointed at Franziska vs. Kallberg ,.. but now I cant find any video of it.
Still a great match, I was talking to Franziska after the match, told him I was surprised of the result, expecting easier win 4:0, 4:1 .. he said: "EGAL " .... so .. win is all that counts, he had a serve at 9:9 in the final game, converting both, thats all that counts..
[QUOTE=alas26;286293]Was the ZZ / MT match not on ITTV? I can’t find it anywhere
Nope, they played at no-stream table..
You cant even imagine..
They have been talking in the backstage with his dad and one more person for hours after the match..The Following User Likes Michal_Z's Post:

You never know..
I was talking with one of the players, he told me about these chinese players..
He said, that all these 2nd ranked players that are attending pro-tours are never going to be great.
China saves the best players in background untill they are ready. Just like they did with Liang Jingkun.
He attended maybe one-two pro tours and then only played in China..
When he was ready, they released him on the circuit and now he is world no. 10 I think?
So Xue Fei, Zhai Zihao .. well they are not ment to be .. best..

And this is really weird, because all the time there were 4-5 japanese guys running around with cameras, recording all the matches they could. I got to chat with one of them, he said he only picks up matches for the japanese coach.
The jap. coach has all the matches you can think of, recorded and available for analyzis..
I doubt pretty much that they wouldnt have videos and tactics analyzis for Pletea..

So anyways I was talking to Drinkhall y-day and he decided not to let me copy the video of his match with Shibaev, he said he would upload it to youtube by himself.
I said - thats good enough for me, because that is all I wanted
So - lets hope he will do it soonThe Following User Likes Michal_Z's Post:

I kinda agree with both of you. Hayata is not top 10 player in the world right now, but Ishikawa and Hirano arent too. Both benefit from good seeding all year long and doesnt do any meaningful with it. Ito is the best japanese player by quite a large margin and can at least compete against the top CNT member.
I would put Hirano, Ishikawa and Hayata at a similar level. Hirano might be the most consitent, Hayata has to most upset potential and is a great doubles fit for Ito. Ishikawa... well, she wins most games she is favored (against WR 20-50), but has quite some mental issues. Especially against every CNT player. Her Doubles are not that good too.
Right now i would pick Ito and Hirano for singles and Hayata for the team games.The Following User Likes karupinkun's Post:
