Korea Open 2018

[ping fun]

It is almost certain ZJK retired due to draw. Almost all qualifiers had to play one prelim knockout but ZJK was scheduled to play two. This is ridiculous.

Actually it can be . Cause I read somewhere be cause his body couldnt resist more games in one day he did this it seems he avoided from being injured . But certainly he had problem in his body . And really i have no idea why the draw had problem ?? And why they changed it?? Do they allowed to change it ??and many Q's

[mrk]

Since Hayata cannot play due to injury, does anyone know if Harimoto is playing his mixed double with another women or is it a walkover for Wang Chuqin/Sun Yingsha?

edit: it's a walkover

 

[usualsuspect]

Le Roi est mort, vive le Roi!

ZJK is dead !! Long live with King Harimoto !!

Wouldn't "Long live FZD" be much more likely?

Ok i am a bit behind here. Can someone explain to me, are players meant to be randomized after the knockout stage across all international competition?

Sounds like Korean TTA decided they want to randomize the winners of the knockout stage whereas ITTF rule says otherwise.

That's how I understand. Please shine some light on this.

Why Yu Fun even bothers to play? Looks like she doesn't want to play at all the points, and that "I'm bad" behaviour, so annoying to a professional to have.

Also I thought she was playing for the US before not Portugal, how this could would be even possible?

CHEN Xingtong ousted by HASHIMOTO 1-4 ! too much pressure after her memorable defeat to ITO in the Japan Open ?

 

[zeio]

Nah, she has trouble with choppers. She lost to Han Ying 0:4 at the China Open.

I guess this got mixed up somehow.
The name is Yu Fu, though

Ito is getting really good when things get tight. She was down 3:8 and came back to take it 12:10 in the 3rd game.

 

[Garrison]

What a final point between Franziska and Jang Woojin, wow

Yes, I my autocorrect did the middle with fun, thanks

Jin Ueda - Yuya Oshima, what a thriller that was. Oshima had a lot of luck going against him in the 7th, showed quite the composure.

 

[jamesmith]

Chinese young , new players are not good enough, this is the first time no male player can pass qualify round and preliminary round. Only those seeded players stay at the tournament. China table tennis is in trouble , on the other hand, Japanese and Korea has some good new young players.

Too sad there are no promising young stars in the horizon for CNT, other than fzd. Complacency starts to rear its ugly head, it seems.

You guys are sleeping on Wang Chuqin. Not his fault he was in a group with Liang Jingkun.
