After claiming the pairs title on Friday together with Michelovic van Velzen, Cho also secured the individual crown.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"641\" data-end=\"971\">Cho had beaten his Dutch pairs partner Van Velzen in the quarterfinals (3\u20130) with an average of over 80, and then eliminated Germany\u2019s Ralf Huesman in the semifinals (3\u20131).
