@Gozo Aruna no play with cheap Chinese racket. Yay!

Yup! No cheapo Chinese blade for Gozo!

Anders Lind the Kingslayer, holy what a MATCH!!!!

Clever, Nikolai Coster Waldau is Danish and they kinda look like they could be related.

I just hope he doesn't have a twin sister, though...

Amazing win from anders i am still pissed i can't watch wtt live in Germany after R16 i think.

LSD has a very weak forehand for a Chinese player. Anders exploited it really good. LSD doen't use his elbow at all he has very similar motion to Harimoto. If I would he his coach there would be a lot of forehand technique drills.
But he is still young and can learn. WCQ and LSDs forehand look like complete opposites.

And Yes Wang Hao needs to go they have Ma Long, probably the best tactician. I would try to bring him in. Or bring him and FZD back to CNT 😪😪😪😪

When Lind beat WCQ, did WCQ lose because he had a weak forehand as well?

I find it a bit annoying when people use style to explain why a player lost as opposed to the specific tactics of the match. Many of the players with supposedly stronger forehands are all the players that LSD surpassed to get to his position on the CNT.

If Noshad Alamian losing its not because of weak FH? ))))

No, it is because he put fewer balls on the table than his opponent. Maybe the opponent exploited something about his forehand, but it is better to know that by seeing how the opponent played the match rather than speaking about a weak forehand that 99.999% of players in the world cannot exploit.

Our beloved professor ZYL got trumped by WMY who she just beat recently with a clean swept.

Well, revenge is powerful and sweet. For a competitive player, losing usually is the greatest motivator when she faces the same opponent again.

Now, look at statistics like, ML's record vs. someone was 18:0 or 20:0. What else can you say besides ML is just at different level than this poor fellow. It's equivalent like an active 2300 USA rated player playing against 1800 opponent. There are some good rallies and excellent plays by both players but 2300 always on the winning side.

The clock may have struck midnight for ZYL. She lost 3-0 to Satsuki at the Europe Smash and now 4-0. I didn't get to watch her match vs. WMY yet, but Satsuki repeatedly tested her wide BH and then transition to middle or wide FH. ZYL is listed on the roster for Abyell in T-League (same team as Miwa, Nagasaki, Hirano, CIC) so it should be interesting watching her in T-League when she becomes available.

I never said he lost because of his forehand style just pointed the style out. And said he lost because he has weak forehand and that his forehand was exploited. Every match LSD lost, was because of his week forehand. At least it looked like it to me.

You mean you know better then his coach?

Never said i know better then his coach because I don't know what his coach thinks and knows. But what i said would be my approach.

Wow, Calderano is in a really great shape, it will be a very though match for Anders tomorrow, in case Calderano and Wang Chuqin go to the final, it will be quite a blockbuster of a match!

There are free VPN browser extensions. All WTT streams are still on YouTube. It's just the men's 1. Bundesliga that isn't anymore.
