[Vlad Celler]

Ishikawa - Hayata?
Will Japan take risks?
To be honest, there is nothing to lose ... It certainly won't be worse, my opinion ...

What's funny about this comment of yours is the fact Japanese wouldn't do that but Chinese team would 😂

Say Kasumi or Mima give bad performances in either event, they might be tempted to give Hina a chance but because of the team spirit they wouldn't, Hina will still be equally part of that spirit cheering her team mates on.

Chinese team also very team focused, team driven, team first, players supporting their team mates too, defeat is not taken easily so decisions like today's one will be made, more to maintain the standards and message ahead of the overall spirit

Other smaller teams like Chinese Taipei might not matter as much as might survive few rounds then run into stronger teams like Japan or China 😛. Spirit there but changes are ones that can adjusted after tournaments not during

system error? Or did Pota withdraw?

 

[balazs1234]

Pota withdrew due to injury, Fazekas will play instead, who was part of the team that won the quota in the Teams' event.

Gauzy scores a tennis-like BH passing shot winner running from the other side of the court , going round and lower than the net !!! to win G3 against WCT

this one goes directly in the Olympics top 10

Hugo shows nice composure in 5th set vs Levajac after referee took him two points by calling sevice error.

 

[igorponger]

The red player was resentful like hell and right so
Umpire stayed calm like a marbled doll

Who will play doubles?

It is easy to forget that Wang Manyu and Sun Yingsha are the world doubles champions.

They stole that title by cheating rather than winning it in fair play. I have not forgotten that.

 

[NextLevel]

German Men's Team have an absurdly difficult draw - getting through that draw should deserve a medal just for doing it.

Chinese fans call blowing on the ball cheating but look past a blatantly wrong let call 😂

USA women taking a chance and using their top two players in doubles versus Taiwan. Tied up 2-2 at the moment.

Edit: Close one, but Taiwan takes it 11-8 in the fifth.

 

[7malligk]

US will have to pull something spectacular out to win this.

Cheng Hsien-Tzu looks bit heavier not meaning to sound rude, not sure she has been training to absolute standards for the games. I think she is on the squad just because of her doubles record with CZY but less that convincing against USA. I love Chinese Taipei team but they are such a tease, they have off days. Lin Yun-ju only real vision for the future when discussion titles for the team. Hoping they can get 1 more medal when the games conclude.

France made a strong appearance against HK.

LYJ is 1 in 7 billion. When his body catches up to his mind, he will be unstoppable. His game is so fluid it's beautiful to watch. It's a shame he didn't get a bronze (full credit to Dima), but we'll be seeing him for at least 3 more Olympics.

Lee Ho-Ching too careless with that crucial forehand putaway, hit right into Samara's forehand

Romania takes the doubles after Hong Kong fudges 3 matchpoints!
Would be big if they made semifinals
