Mizutani said Harimoto was a deserving winner, but promised to come back stronger.
“I’m frustrated to end without offering everything I can, but I think he’ll carry my share of the load as well (at the rest of this tournament),” the 27-year-old said. “I couldn’t find any openings to exploit from start to finish.
“He was genuinely strong. It was the first meeting but each of his skills was at a higher level than I expected, it was a comprehensive defeat. I need to develop further for his progress too, I can’t retire for some time.”

You have mixed match-ups between the upcoming R16 and the previous R32...

Ma Long vs Chuang Chih Yuan
Marcos Freitas vs Timo Boll

Tomokazu Harimoto vs Lubomir Pistej
Lin Gaoyuan vs Xu Xin


Lee Sangsu vs Vladimir Samsonov
Jeoung Sangeun vs Wong Chun Ting

Dimitrij Ovtcharov vs Koki Niwa
Ruwen Filus vs Fan Zhendong


Thanks for your head-up while the ITTF updater is still sleeping.

Btw I just hate that LGY needs to face his teammate, XX at this stage, so early, what a waste!! <sigh>

Thanks for the update samsara,

We are not getting enough sleep out here! haha!

Thanks for helping with the topic

Fang Bo & Petrissa Solja VS Kasumi & Maharu - EPIC STUFF!

The stream is rubbish again, though.

 

[sanavasaraja]

The stream is fine.

 

[Takkyu_wa_inochi]

the commentator keeps calling the Chinese "Boo" but he's only getting applauses...

The stream is fine.

I'm getting choppy (low FPS) playback even at lower qualities.

 

[fz29888]

His born name was Zhang Benzhi 张本智, his father is Zhang Yu 张宇 and mother is Zhang Ling 张凌 (the parents have the same surname).
http://www.appledaily.com.tw/realtimenews/article/new/20150926/699843/

Actually, his original name is 张志和( Zhang Zhihe) rather than 张本智(Zhang Benzhi). He changed to 张本智和 because most Chinese with surname Zhang(张) will change to 张本(Tomokazu).

Ugh Fang/Solja played pretty terrible in the last sets

 

[samsara]

Check if your country is the lucky one beyond the Geo-ban list, which is extensive today LOL

 

[M51]

Watch on tv.ittf.com, not on laola.

 

[Garrison]

AFAIK the ittf.tv streams are just embedded laola streams

AFAIK the ittf.tv streams are just embedded laola streams

IDK, all streams work for me at ITTF, whilst on laola's site I'm geo-blocked.

 

[Garrison]

Filus plays really well so far. He is really getting pumped up by the crowd

 

[M51]

Harimoto is ****ing obnoxious.

But then again, so was I at 13. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

[eyepop]

This guy Pištej is my new favorite player.
