ITTF WTTC Finals Doha 2025, 5/17-25

I'm so pleased for Tom Jarvis! He's a lovely guy who works incredibly hard. He's doing England proud.

Jarvis had a very good season in the 2. Bundesliga as number 1 for Mainz with a 14:3 win rate. Team ended up being second.

Wtf Gauzy and WCT have to play a second singles a mere few hours later against top seeds?

Hopefully he gets into div 1 soon 🙏

Gauzy, after the brutal match with Lind, is back playing Lin Gaoyuan. You can't make this up.

And WCT had to switch halls on top of that.

Anyone remember the long posts that were used to prove how overrated Quadri was?

Lol. Duda choked big time... in the 5th game and blew, what, a 9:3 lead?

Quadri, on the other hand, proved that he's got nerves of steel and played very well under a lot of pressure. Well deserved win.

Losing big leads is always choking if we uae that angle, but why dont we also say that Quadri choked to give Duda a 9-3 lead? In reality, what shots did Duda not play that he could have played? Quadri hit a lot of winners so we need to be careful when we call any loss of a big lead choking. Maybe he let the lead go and relaxed too much, but he didnt juat start playing bad table tennis. I think Quadri keeping it close in game 6 was what swung it after losing terribly in that end of the table in prior games.

What if she did not see it or was not sure? Maybe attack the cheater instead of the player who caught the cheater?


Sure, because they all cheat (except very few like Vladi or Timo). But the ITTF started working on this, and the unwritten rules are changing as we speak. There is no point invoking them.

Yes, she suddenly decided to fight against cheating right at the moment when her opponent had the momentum and was posing a real threat to her chances of winning. Annette’s toss was at a 33 degree angle instead of 30 or less, so down with the cheater, while she herself often hides the ball with her head during service.
"what if she..." argument is really hard to believe. This isn’t a local tournament with local players, they all know exactly when a serve is illegal. It was simply a low move, and Annette’s reaction said it all, she was really upset (maybe was now aware that the unwritten rules are changing as we speak).

Apart from that, having TTR available on two tables in major competitions wouldn’t really make much of a difference and it would be quite expensive for smaller tournaments and leagues to afford, so they should look for more practical alternatives.

The funny thing is that he has the game to do it, Jarvis has bamboozled Xue Fei with his serves before. But of course, CNT at WTTC is a different animal.

Gauzy playing some absolutely bonkers points against LGY! Almost every other point is a highlight reel. 3-1 let's see if he can finish the job.

 

[Robin0910]

Some of these points are insane between Gauzy and Lin Gaoyuan

currently in medical time out as he grazed his knee

 

[Takkyu_wa_inochi]

Allez Simon !!!!
will LGY confirm being the GLOAT ???

[turbozed]

This Gauzy vs LGY match might actually be the most insane match I've ever seen. Gauzy is in full ridiculous Gauzy mode and it's beautiful to watch.

HE DID IT!

After so many close calls with Chinese team opponents, he beats LGY convincingly 4-1 playing as insane as possible.

Allez, Simon!

WTT needs 2 other cameras when Gauzy is playing we don't understand the action...
