It seemed a mismatch on paper --- Germany’s Dimitrij Ovtcharov is 28 while Tomokazu Harimoto of Japan is just 13. Ovtcharov raced to a lead, winning the first two games but found the going tough as the match progressed. After pocketing three games, if Ovtcharov thought it would be easy, he was mistaken as Harimoto didn’t give up. Ovtcharov had to dig deep to score a point and wrap up the contest. ResultsFinal (Men): Dimitrij Ovtcharov (Ger) bt Tomokazu Harimoto (Jpn) 11-6, 11-8, 11-4, 14-12; Women: Sakura Mori (Jpn) bt Matilda Ekholm (Swe) 7-11, 11-5, 11-8, 12-10, 6-11, 8-11, 11-6.
