Final game. Personally, I felt a TO will be good before 6-4. The mistake at 6-3 looked really awkward, in fact even the body language after scoring the point at 5-3 looked weird. A TO for energy recovery is more important here than anything else. Besides, change of court is almost like going into a next game. A TO for regrouping would be good. 9-10, even though this point is won, the last winner looked like it's executed blindly, by pure habit, without reading or sensing the ball properly. Hence the manner which the next 2 points are lost. The mind wasn't working at all, there's zero sensing of the ball. It was just a swing of the strokes by habit, by motor memory. Complete fatigue of the mind, and body. But in all honesty, Hashimoto played superbly. Including and especially all the usual predictable TOs not taken. Physical-technical-tactical-psychological intensity all way above normal.
