Watching Albin Ouschan yesterday, I wonder what happened to him. He has not been the same since he lost to Jayson Shaw in the Hanoi Open final in 2024. The WPA-WNT spat happened shortly after, and like Filler, he reneged on his commitment to not play in WPA events. He apologized in a sincere manner, but was stung by criticism.
Since then he has been quieter and more lowkey. Shows more negative vibes, almost like he is depressed. I wonder if he even want to keep playing pro. Sometimes he seems like he wants to be doing something else. He also skips more events.
It’s too bad. He’s still young and in great shape. Just seems like all his fire is gone. With his sister, it’s the opposite.
