Cheng I-Ching vs Satsuki Odo | WS R16 | #WTTChongqing 2026

And she's on the board now. And she's just got herself just as sharp after a huge win. Oh, she knew that was coming and she celebrates that. It's amazing how sport is such a great level. Under fire from that formidable forehand. And Yiqing isn't used to not winning the point when she's in that commanding a position. She's got a flow to her again now. She's beginning to move smoothly. And then with the backhand it's a lot of spin. And she's just getting pinned in that backhand corner. She can't keep that one alive. And that was speedy from Satsuki Odo. Putting behind any concerns about dropping that first ball, isn't it? She's short in stature. And then she was ready. She feels like she can get one of these over the line. Now she gets the point. Figuring out where her opponent is. Straight down the middle. That's the way. A little flick off the net helped her. But that time she coped both with the service and then what followed. It was all made by a wonderful... Same service. This time a very different result. Pounced on gleefully by... And this time... This time Satsuki Odo does it. 16-14 in what could turn out to be the pivotal game in this match. That was some contest. Good game for a 2-1 lead. Oh, she's there. What a point. No wonder she smiles. Look at the way Odo was scampering to this and thought, Yeah, I've won this. Speechless. Because how was Satsuki Odo covering that amount on that huge backhand? Look at... She just stood there like she's waiting for a bus. Stunning service. Oh, and the net there. Tried to adjust. It's noteworthy that over the last few points... My goodness. An onslaught with the forehand eventually producing the point. Service-wise, Satsuki's won over 60%. And because she's got that confidence... Of course it was a long serve. And of course it was a celebration. Three games, one. And for the second time this week here in Chongqing, we see that broad smile of achievement, of accomplishment on the face of Satsuki Odo, whose adventure here in Chongqing continues despite a really strong, solid fight from Zhang Yijing.
