WTT Champions Japan 2025 - 7-11 Aug 2025

[NextLevel]

What's the title of the book, please?

Google that description lol.

 

[piligrim]

If Duda wins vs Lind, will Togami have a chance to surpass the surpassers? And will he seize his chance?

Did anyone hear the timeout between Lind and coach? Players can be funny lol...

Duda right now on phone with MLTT

I'll let him chime in on whether DHK spoke candidly about her condition and the management of it with him or not - would like to hear what her direct quotes were if it wasn't what he posted above. At any rate, dealing with an incurable limiting condition when she still would have had years of prime under her belt sucks.

This is so funny.

I speak to players
zeio, what does he do? search on the internet only, haha

his credibility is so low. you unplug his internet, he will have nothing - valueless/useless.

DHK's English teacher is one of my students
DHK is great friends with a lot of my Taiwan women coach friends (they are in my Cathay Life video).
I tried to get DHK to play Pro A, I don't know how many times I tried to pair her with clubs, over half a dozen times. I also tried to get her to UTT

any ways, i'm sure zeio thinks my client list is fake
and so is the fake Fan Siqi, CNT player I bought with to India which was so high class hospitality that zeio just cannot grasp.

meanwhile, i think zeio is fake, and he is only as good as what tieba tells him.

So the last time DHK decline a very attractive Pro A offer, she said she has too much stress and injury on her body (her exact words), and she can't really be putting any more competition into her schedule as she need to make use of what ever rest time she can find to let the body rest and heal.

To me, avg of 2 internationals a month is not helping, but she doesn't really have a choice to stay afloat world rankings. And here we back at scheduling issues of just way too many events.

never the less, what did DHK tell zeio?? other than what media has put into the media world either by players speaking out, or from reporters. You always need to remove narratives from these messages that are "designed for PR".

zeio should ask DHK if she knows Tony, and then it will save me a lost of "waste my time" post on him.

I'm still waiting for zeio to show us who he is, and how connected he is with the table tennis world and no, tieba doesn't count!

Duda right now on phone with MLTT

i'm more certain he is heading back to the hotel to sleep

40 hour trip is not fun

 

[baotran]

He somehow has upgraded his power on his forehand in just the last month or so. And he sometimes slows down the game when he usually would have gone all in. Definitely a step in the right direction

In term of power, I don't see much improvement. It's more like he makes his loop more spiny and stable, plus his placement is much better than before.

Where is all the EJ and nobody talking about his new rubbers? haha

 

[Tony's Table Tennis]

Did Tony say:

A) I spoke to DHK and the following is what she told me word for word?

or

B) I spoke to DHK, and separately, this is my opinion of what she needs to do based on our discussion?

I read it as B.

in this thread, this is the 2nd time that clearly shows that zeio cannot read to understand.

1st one, he says dumb WYD, and I said, low class bullying tactic against even they own (chinese players).
and he gave me a whole lecture on Sabine Winter (another player I know)

if he learns how to read, he would write a thesis on why WYD is dumb

 

[Metaxa]

While the Duesseldorf team was there early training with the JNT. Very different schedules...

Gauzy in Heraklion

 

[TampaBayTableTennis]

Chen Yi at it again...

 

[rpb23]

Chen Yi kept talking to herself during breaks, a sign of a good player who uses her brain.

 

[TampaBayTableTennis]

woahhh that point at 5-5!

 

[TampaBayTableTennis]

no way!

...

omg, unbelievable

 

[OvrChkn]

I watched a video earlier today of Fang Yinchi demonstrating backhand footwork and watching Chen Yi's footwork is like a revelation to me.

 

[jfolsen]

Odo beat Lily Zhang in a walkover? Anyone know the story?

she is learning from nextlevel

 

[rpb23]

After beating the number 1 SYS, now the number 2 WMY is the new victim.
CY shows she is real and ready to challenge the top. Chinese women team is in good shape now two promising and proving young blood in QM and CY are ready to join the first tier.

Have to say, it's a rare feat to see a very tall girl to play in such smooth, agile, fast and explosive way.

 

[rpb23]

Started off with 6:0 lead, still ended losing, LSD showed vulnerability as a young player.

 

[TampaBayTableTennis]

are people out enjoying their Friday night or something? there is a Champions event on!

 

[TampaBayTableTennis]

can you imagine...

...
...
... (omg)

 

[Catenaccio]

I was worried that missing that sitter at 9:4 would come back to haunt Dang Qiu. Luckily, it didn't 😄
