Austrian Open 2018

SATO seems more consistent than HASHIMOTO and a better footwork, but HASHIMOTO counters seem more powerful with her BH, she has a bit more reach as well and her backspin pushes seems more difficult to handle for the opponent

Table 1, 3 and 4 are overrunning...feels like the WTTC.

In case someone at ITTF is following this thread, the audio for Table 2 feed is like a second behind the video.

Hej Zeio, do you know why there is a guy just standing there and count the ball back and forth

I have a kind of OFF topic question

I don't know if it's my impression but I noticed that between (specially) European women is common to do the FH with the arm more closer to the body (like attached), is this a school?

Honoka you can't just beat ZYL thats not how this works!

 

[AndySmith]

Hashimoto and ZYL are having a full-scale battle. Final game.

 

[PatriciaPinheiro]

SYS is not giving the slightest sweat to DN, is she alright? Cause usually she's quite a threat

Wow, what a match that was!

 

[zeio]

ZYL made it out alive.

 

[Takkyu_wa_inochi]

Honoka missed the BH penalty at (2nd) matchpoint 10-9 !!!! and loses it 10-12 ... what a pity

But I think she'll be on the CNT watchlist together with ITO. Soon there's gonna be too many Japanese players to watch for them... LOL

European men too. It is a general difference on technique. There are individual exceptions but your general observation is correct. Part of it is driven by equipment but it is a stylistic difference across countries and continents.

 

[AndySmith]

Yeah, I couldn't believe that BH miss. That was the moment. A real sickener for her.

The CNT women are fixing that quickly. We should be back on schedule soon.

Ito in a spot of bother on table 4.

Ito in a spot of bother on table 4.

She looks flat and to be fair, Doo Hoi Kem chases everything down.

Yup. No mercy was shown there.

 

[PiZa]

Mima eliminated, BIG relief for chinese players

 

[Janard]

ZYL made it out alive.

What was the medical emergency for? With this victory, Doo > Top 3 Chinese Players or it shows the extremely high risk game of Ito's play?

Hahah Doo needed the verbal support and it worked. Happy for her!
