Asarel Bulgaria open

On August 18, 2019, the final of the table tennis tournament – Assarel Bulgaria Open was held in Panagyurishte. Competitors from all over the world participated in the tournament, and the prize pool was a record $ 190,000. Although the tournament lasted a whole week, my colleagues and I were only able to attend the final, which was spectacular for both women and men. We were able to buy VIP tickets and were very close to the tennis table. However, it turned out that ordinary seats would provide better visibility to the table because they were viewed from above, unlike the VIP seats that provided side views. Still, we’ve seen enough.

Each of the players showed an incredible game. The truth is that at that point players had to show not only better skills but also a stronger psyche. This is exactly what I think happened in the women’s finale between Xingtong Chen and Juodia Hu. Chen won by 4-1.

For men, the finale was no less intense. Japan’s Tomokazu Harimoto, who is only 16, won the battle against Zhao Zhao of China. Each game was extremely interesting, and we tried to remember every movement because we had a corporate table tennis tournament. In the end, we were extremely pleased with what we saw, and finally we left with T-shirts with our names on the back.
