26th Asian Table Tennis Championship

[blahness]

Lin was actually very tied going into that match.
doubles, mixed doubles and teams on the same day.
Think I heard someone saying it was18 games in one day, or something like that.
He played 2nd and 5th spot, which didn't make sense, other than, giving him more time to rest.
At least his injury seems to be a thing of the past

at the end, his serves was a lot more conservative and only did spin or no spins, compared to game 4 where he was attacking every ball from the serve and causing Fan to make tons of service return errors - giving point away.

His FH quality also dropped a lot as the game proceeded, some people in my corner was saying fatigue.
Maybe he needed another 1 to 2 days of rest, since they was traveling involved.

Lin has never played with H3, so I'm not sure if changing it will be ideal.
He does have access to it if he wanted.

The new gen of Taiwanese players are all BH strong, or should we say - more balance.
and it seems like a trend that get there, and then start working on your FH.
Kao and Huang is exactly that too.

Lin Yun Ju's new sideunderspin service looks a lot heavier than before, tbh prior to this it was like more sidespin with some underspin, now it looks like heavy af underspin with some side. He made it look almost exactly like his regular sidetopspin serve which is quite the achievement.

I think Lin Yun Ju definitely had some real chances of finishing it against FZD given he had 2 match points. For some reason I feel like he needs some special weapons/tactics/variations to win these crucial points kinda like Ma Long.

 

[fore.n.back]

Yes to having the most balanced FH and BH. That's an interesting development. Looking back on my comments from 2017/2018, Tanaka and Togami were actually BH-oriented players just like Harimoto. The fact that Tanaka has 1 WTT title out of 1 final in 2023 and Shinozuka has 2 out of 2 in 2022 while Togami has 0 final appearances in this cycle says it all.

Also, I have forgotten that Uda 4-3 Xu Yingbin in QF, 4-0 Xiang Peng in SF, and 1-4 Xu Haidong in F of JBS back at WJTTC 2018. Check out in quote 2 Miyazaki's comment on the difference in philosophy between Japan and South Korea and you will see why Uda is good to have.

Having watched the whole match, there's another aspect that I find about Tanaka, that's his defensive shots are able to win him points. I remembered Mizutani has said that when you compete internationally, you must be able to win even on the defense. Togami emphasizes attacking too much that his defense becomes passive.

 

[zeio]

Yes, Mizutani even specifically pointed out the issues of Togami, namely going "bam bam" with his receiving that leads to unforced errors, especially his over-reliance on the chiquita and his inability to correct, that being a world's top player is totally different from being a Japan's top player, and that he can't just expect what works at home to work overseas as well, but that Togami is apparently not aware and that he is still immature in a lot of areas.

Like LGL's comment in 2011 that ML should focus on making the opponent uncomfortable first, Mizutani also mentioned that there have been very few matches in which Togami focused on exploiting the weakness of his opponent rather than exposing his own because of "my way or the highway", which is "the theory of world class players". He added that there are players who can "be fixed" and those who cannot.

It's just not the lost, but the amount of points Togami can loose on the trot.
All 3 games was like that

The timeout on Lin GY side was brilliant, Lin was having trouble with Shinozuka sudden backhand kills but after that he prolonged the BH exchange and win.

On a good note, Tanaka wins, avenge for your civil war king fam

 

[zeio]

Tanaka through to the QF. He deserves a medal.

 

[Takkyu_wa_inochi]

Yuta TANAKA ! he made it through the local hero LIM Jonghoon !
next he's gonna fight with LIN Yunju in QF.

getting tougher and tougher !

 

[fore.n.back]

Some fans have voiced their concerns on the competency of coach Tasei on the bench in singles match, how do you guys feel about this?

 

[fore.n.back]

getting tougher and tougher !

Tanaka: I didn't reach the final at Zennoh Cup Funabashi in November last year for nothing.

Ma Long really doesn't look fit for Paris.
Will another 10 months be better for him, or slow him down further?

I guess Paris OG will be the first time where CNT mens winning 3-0 in games and matches will be a bit of a challenge.

 

[Emin]

What an incredible 5th Set, Ma long fights through 13-11!
