WTT Champions Chongqing 2025 - 11-16 Mar 2025

[ThePongCommenter]

bro, if you call that slapping....

View attachment 35083


I wondered if he ended up "slapping" his left hand too.

The point was that he was taking out frustration on a plastic water bottle not the differentiation between slapping and punching

 

[ThePongCommenter]

At the French finals (don't remember the year) he was beaten by Alexis. Alexis was with his feet on the table and Felix was crying like a baby.
All players have been in their age and they weren't behaving like psycohpaths.
Have you ever seen Ma long, Lin Yun Ju, Kao Cheng Jui, Lin Shidong, FZD or any other player behaving like that, even at young age?
WCQ threw his raquet once and was banned from CNTT for about two months.

I mean come on, we can't justify everything on age. They are professional players, they are not 5 year olds any more...

A teenager who had his dreams crushed at the national championships cried. Yes, that is definitely psychopathic behavior.

Where are your threads about Anders Lind, Truls, etc.? But you specifically make threads about Harimoto and the Lebruns... just say that you are jealous that kids are achieving more than you ever have or will.

Fascinating how quickly people forget Zhang Jike...

WCQ back to being unplayable.

That's said before. He is a swing type player who can go up for a few months followed by a few months down. When he is up he is almost unplayable and when he is down he can be beaten by anyone. We already witnessed how hot he was a month before the Olympic, how terrible he was a few months starting with the Olympic. Now, he clearly is swinging back to the peak form.

A clear and confident mind is so crucial to players playing fast pace. For WCQ, like Felix, he plays very fast pace but with much higher quality than Felix. When you combine both speed and quality, it's indeed almost unplayable.

 

[rpb23]

Not really, Alexis felt he had no chance playing the style he usually does against other players which often involves leaving the table (probably because of the angles and power of WCQ) but i feel he has to learn from experience as this was the first time they have met. It took Truls time to learn. Felix doesn't do that much better either. So I would say ultimately a required step. Whether in the right direction, time will tell. These brothers try to raise their game so they need to see how good they have to be.

Whatever Truls learned against WCQ won't be matter much when WCQ is in the beast mode. Now WCQ is close to that unplayable form we'll see how Truls will fare against such a beast as these two are on a collision course. My money will be on WCQ showing who the real boss is.

 

[backspacer]

Has WCQ used the hook serve even once this year? Sure feels like he is avoiding using it.

Both Lebrun brothers have serious psychological problems....

"psychological"? That's too big a word. Emotional is more proper.

emotional or anger management?
I feel, the more it happens, the closer it gets to the latter

On the contrary, I think they're both notably strong competitors. Alexis has had anger management issues which is not exactly uncommon for young players, but he seems clearly to be improving.

Hopefully the people at Tibhar can use their position in the player-vendor relation to intervene soon so his mental game gets on track. It is very important.

Yeah, but we have seen many top players do more dangerous things than get angry at bottles because they are frustrated with how they are playing. I just caution against people telling others how to get fired up unless they are their sports psychologists.

 

[Tyce]

This man has serious psychological problems!

At least this man has the decency to keep it within his own reach. If he'd thrown it away into a screen or a ball boy I'd be all for a ban.

The Felix throw is reckless. Disregard for their surroundings. That's not frustration, that's rage.

Smashing a water bottle is, in comparison, quite contained as well.

Must be a brave soul to vote for LYJ considering who he's playing against next lol.

Even Molin is like wtf are you doing?!

That was not my impression at all.

Another guy Togami beat in TTBL, just for the record...

Tieba users aren't convinced.

晚风925 户二哥虽然全日锦无了，但是他世排也掉了
松岛新科全日锦，结果今年上不去世界杯世锦赛，现在连冠军赛都难说。
大登离户上还差55分，户上有个265，4.22到期目前看不出来他从哪补一个。
（顺便大家已经集体追平户上冠军赛最好战绩了）
宇田，这次让二追三有点意思的，看看他能不能抓住几次高积分赛事的机会，至少把参赛名额稳住，谁能想到平野现在连冠军赛都打不了了？
真的全糊成一坨了，这竞争局面堪称扑朔迷离。

(Although Togami lost the All-Japan Championship title, he also dropped in WR
Matsushima won the All-Japan Championship, but he failed to qualify for the World Cup and WTTC this year, and now it is hard to say whether he can even play in WTT CS.
Hiroto is still 55 points behind Togami, who has a 265-point that will expire on 4/22 and it is unclear where he will make up for it.
(BTW, everyone has collectively tied Togami's best record in WTT CS)
For Uda, it is interesting to come back 3-2 this time. Let's see if he can seize the opportunity of a few high-points events to at least secure his quota. Who would have thought that Hirano can't even play in WTT CS now?
It's really all messed up. This competitive situation is confusing.)

(Of course, it is not accurate to put it this way, given he is not the No. 2 after all. Anyway, Hiroto has an ATTC bronze and a WTT CT title [TL's note: a WTT FEE title as well], while Togami, Uda and Matsushima have never won a singles medal in continental tournaments, nor have they won a WTT title, not even a WTT FEE title.)

They can settle it head to head.

Whatever Truls learned against WCQ won't be matter much when WCQ is in the beast mode. Now WCQ is close to that unplayable form we'll see how Truls will fare against such a beast as these two are on a collision course. My money will be on WCQ showing who the real boss is.

This is true, but irrelevant to the actual battle. The athlete's mindset is to play for victory on that day. Truls will do whatever he can to throw off the rhythm of WCQ. Truls is smart and WCQ even when on form can lose rhythm against things that throw off his timing. My money is on WCQ winning, but Truls is a good enough player that he is not without a chance especially because his style allows him to continue throwing new things at you especially if WCQ is not hiding his serve.

 

[NetProphet]

This man has serious psychological problems!

Well he really did in his younger days and it held him back for years but probably fair to say he eventually got it under control 😂

 

[NextLevel]

I was so sure Wang Yidi would win 3-0. I guess psychological scars are real.
