Europe Smash Sweden August 14-24 2025

I find it weird when men (or people I think are men) think simping is cool - seriously.

Agreed, kinda creepy tbh. Have nothing but praise & respect for Hashimoto, but come on...

 

[Tony's Table Tennis]

You mean like Han Ying and Xiona Shan tried and failed woefully to convince DTTB bigshots they should be on the team over younger players like Mittleham, Solja etc. Boll failed woefully to get chosen over younger players like Franziska et al?

Age is not the limiter, performance is. Let's not get this twisted. And before this you had been mocking her performance with that phrase, let's not move the goal posts please, she was always a long shot for LA 28, give her performance credit now.

Its so funny looking at how zeio is trying to keep his argument alive when all his “predictions” is failing and then he still tries to defend his failures.

Winter’s goal is clear and simple, she even said it out herself and that was laughed at by zeio

 

[Catenaccio]

Here is the match point between Hashimoto and WYD from a better angle. With her win, Hashimoto puts some distance between herself and the chasing pack. Hashimoto will have at least 2,310 points with Hayata at 1,985 and Nagasaki at 1,880 points when the world ranking will be released next week.

The heaviest casualty after the round of 16 is the whole Japanese army group got wiped out. Didn't anticipate this scenario.

'Simping'? that's not the right word applying here since Hanoka is very unlikely accessing this forum. This is more likely a public adoration of a player.

Sure Winter can get worse. But you said this "No chance for LA 2028" every time she lost a match. Where is the report on her winning the match with the same statement now she has beaten someone (in fact two people) that the German team young brigade are currently incapable of beating?

Shhhh. Let him keep making predictions so I know which underdogs to back lol

careful now, he will quote 10 tieba users to back his predictions

 

[Gozo Zyreruna]

Gozo is into stoicism, but once in a while, FHs like these, brings a drop of tear of joy even from Gozo. I want those FH, I want it so badly.
NB: All these done with a five ply all wood some more; ain't no nid no carbon.

 

[Tony's Table Tennis]

Sabine is such a wonderful story
Glad I am aiding my little bit with sparring partners.

She is a wonderful person, and happy her story is getting better and better.

For her, it isn’t about OG or results but having some fun in her last chapter of her professional career

Winter will easily be in Top 30 after this with an additional 325 points.
Looks like she needs a new goal. Maybe Top 20 isn't so unrealistic after all. Maybe not for 2025 but 2026?

I just watched the full match, and her forehands are truly unreal. She reminded me of WCQ on that side. It makes you wonder: Did Sabine master the FH to compensate for playing anti on the BH, or did she originally start playing anti on the BH so she could focus all of her energy on using her true weapon?

The way she is playing, why not 😊

On my side, I think it's way weirder when some are arguing over and over, fo hours and days, about how some players can be bad, and asking for retirement or stuff like that.
Like they really have something to say or decide about others people carrier and willing...
But it's a TT fan place, so, we have to accept this passion, in one direction or another, I guess.

Technically you are right. Something about it just feels weird but you are technically correct.

The latter.

Point taken.

It's said CXT strained her lower back playing against DHK in R64 and that she is going to marry ZQH soon (from their interactions on Weibo)...

陈幸同被吧里某些人毒奶了 (CXT was jinxed by some Tieba users)

怎么这几天到处传陈幸同和林高远大运会后退出国家队啊？ (Why are rumors about CXT and LGY leaving CNT spreading everywhere the last few days?)

Yes this is ONLY this. These two girls, Honoka and Hitomi are my favorites! I got crazy with every small or big win they have!

For me, especially their WD matches, is like watching Rudolf Nureyev and Mikhail Baryshnikov playing together, not just a TT-match but a ballet

SXN's latest live stream on German MT. Maybe there is a logical reason they don't trust Franziska.

单晓娜：沃尔瑟天赋最高训练偷懒 邱党杜达奥恰训练刻苦 (Shan Xiaona: Walther is the most talented and slacks off in training, while Qiu Dang, Duda and Ovtcharov train very hard)

ZEED-03 单晓娜:沃尔瑟是天赋最好的，在男队里面，为什么打不出来，他训练不用心，最会偷懒吃不了苦，没办法。我都很少见他好好练，照另外几个差远了。德国男队最刻苦的，要我说邱党杜达都练的都很多，其实奥恰都练得很苦，就是能练的他肯定都会练，不会偷懒。小弗跟他们三个比我觉得练得少一点，沃尔瑟就更不用说了练得最少了。

(Shan Xiaona: Walter is the most talented player on the men's team. Why can't he make the top? He doesn't train hard, is best at slacking off, and can't handle hardship. No can do. I rarely see him practice properly, far removed from the other few. The hardest-working players on the German men's team are Qiu Dang and Duda, who both train a lot. In fact, Ovtcharov also trains very hard. He practices whenever he can and never slacks off. Compared to the other three, I think Franziska trains less, and Walther, needless to say, trains the least.)
