Ito was particularly in shape during this tournament. She had perfectly taked revenge against Pavade before. But without her mother to coaching her, she was not able to anticipate an efficient personal strategy against surprising young players trying to trick her game. I think her mother dependance as a coach really disturbed her individual performance to adapt herself on any situations, like that. She is trying to, but this is not enough to come back to the top. If only she had the dynamism of the Lebrun on this tournament, she would be able to won the trophee, because they was just 1 chinese player left. Even Felix Lebrun had suceed to create an efficient personal strategy to trick and beat his older brother without a coach, because he have the strong ambition to win. He was also inspired about her game against Pavade and Alexis by Satsuki tricks on this match for their brother dual in quaterfinals.
