Jasmin Ouschan (AUT) just won the Predator Veldhoven Open 2019, the third tournament of the women’s Euro-Tour series, with a 7:4 victory over Melanie Suessenguth (GER).
Ouschan took the second tournament in a row. What really made the difference between her and all of the other 59 contestants was her break shot and her playing intelligence. Though Ouschan is a really good shotmaker, she knows when to go for a safety and achieve an even better situation. And her break shot is way more consistent than the break shot of all other opponents. On her way to the final match, Ouschan defeated Kristina Jaeger (GER) 7:3, Ewa Bak (POL 7:2, Marharyta Fefilava (BLR) 7:1, Kamila Khodjaeva (BEL) 7:1 and in the semi-final Tina Vogelmann (GER) 7:3. These clear results clearly indicate her superiority over the rest of the field in this tournament.
Suessenguth made her way to the final match with victories over Diana Khodjaeva (BEL) 7:2, Kristina Tkach (RUS) 7:6, Ine Helvik (NOR) 7:3, Christine Steinlage (GER) 7:4, Nataliya Seroshtan (RUS) 7:4 and in her semi-final Veronika Hubrtova (CZE) 7:5. The initial position pointed towards a clear victory for Ouschan in the final match. The final match was open for a long time though. Suessenguth was a tough opponent and demanded everything from Ouschan. After 4:4, Ouschan shifted into overdrive and took the match and the title, winning with 7:4 over Melanie Suessenguth.
