11:35 T1 MS R16 Darko JORGIC(SLO) - CHEN Yuanyu(CHN)
12:45 T1 MS R16 ZHOU Qihao(CHN) - Kanak JHA(USA)
20:15 T1 MS R16 Shunsuke TOGAMI(JPN) - Truls MOREGARD(SWE)
20:50 T1 WS R16 Hana GODA(EGY) - CHEN Xingtong(CHN)

Let's see how many among these four matches I get the results right.

Tough escape for CXT. Hana Goda still missed that last calm killing shot when it was close to the end.

Poor Hana couldn't control her emotions

How does Miku compare to Miwa at the same age?

Not that impressed by Miku's game in Adam's videos.

CXT must think of LJK at the end...

Umm, Adam's videos are just for clicks... can't be taken seriously.

The flow of Miku's game reminded me of Chen Yi's, not very fluently. Well, that is from only a short fun video, so it is not that much to say of it.

WS R16
Goda 2-3 CXT
G5 71, 74, 84, 85, 95, 911

Rare to see CXT hit as hard as she could. I guess World Cup 2026 has left a mark.

Tough picks...

Hayata (coin flip between injured players)
Hatimoto (dicey but this is not a Smash lol)
Han Ying ( Chen Yi should have fixed it by now but until she does, I have to go with logic)
Darko - he usually owns Truls - it is a weird matchup

Alexis - nothing personal, Kallberg can take it but needs his best form.
Chen - Meshref has already set records, but i am not sure she can set a new one.
Miwa - easiest pick in the draw but worse things have happened than a Miwa loss.
Sora - Hugo Backs off the table a bit much

Rooting for Kallberg!!!

I agree with most of these except Darko Vs Truls. I will pick Truls.

I would pick Truls too in the abstract. But like Hayata Odo, Chen Yi Han Ying, and Kallberg Lebrun, I am respecting the H2H. Truls and Darko played in a few Euro Top 16 finals.

 

[J-fed]

Odo just played one of the craziest shots.
Hard to describe.
Close to table, paddle up and swatted a smash back lollipop style. Hayata was shocked

 

[NextLevel]

They took long enough. That match was a reminder of what best of 7 isn't always better lol. The match was longer because of two key games but you could have eliminated the last two games and gotten the same result lol.

 

[NextLevel]

I like ZQH and respect his accomplishments but I have never liked his backhand especially against underspin with the old school technique. His coach (and possibly himself) did him dirty on that one.

 

[kindof99]

Harimoto's game looks perfect unless he meets Felix

 

[astarr]

Chen Yi is up 3–0 against Han Ying. Let’s see if Han Ying can pull off another comeback against her, like she did at US Smash, or if Chen Yi will finally get the win against her this year.

 

[pongfugrasshopper]

Chen Yi showing Kuai Man how it's done. That was very Odo like just ripping everything coming from Han Ying.

That fist pump at the end. YZY is lucky she picked/was assigned to him.
