    Lu Kai is way more clutch, dont expect ZSW to win anything major with his mental fortitude or rather lack of it.

    Lol Yamaguchi walked the wrong way - lucky they noticed and didn't send sparks in her face. Come on TTY!!! You can do it!!!

    Turns out ZSW is the weak link... with those frequent drives being netted and loose serves being punished... Nonetheless spectacular result for them to reach their sixth final on their sixth tournament!

    Chen Qingchen would have killed many of the front shots. Huang looks subtle today.

    What will china coach do again now?

    ZSW lost to Watanabe and Higashino as well when he was partnered with CQC so I'm not sure that's a valid argument. The thing for me is, if ZSW is the weak link and not CQC then doing double duties (as was argued hence the multiple changes in pairings), was it still the right choice to split up 2 excellent mixed doubles pairings?

    Hm, way too passive for my taste so far. She's rather lucky that TTY has made a truck load of errors.

    Super duper clear audio here too similar to WC in Glasgow. You could hear the players breathing.
