WTT Champions Frankfurt 2025 - 4-9 NOV 2025

[NextLevel]

lovely morning of table tennis!

one thing that stood out to me was the number of errors both hugo and bruna made after playing a strong forehand to opponents backhand, with ball returned to their backhand with float/less topspin than expected, and aggressively hitting it right into the net. Bruna started to make the adjustment to continue spinning but fell back to it G5.

Gauzy backhand away from the table these days is a huge strength. And the extra curve he can add making it go into Hugo/s body gave him all sorts of trouble from any distance.

Quadri prepared him well lol...

The sticky rubber is the X-factor on speed. Not so much the blade.

Wrong.

 

[NextLevel]

Wrong.

I am an experienced player and a serial EJ I know what I am speaking about and how it can be disputed. Hopefully you will give me that respect but if not, feel free to elaborate.

Best of five games is much a childplay, some profanation of real sport contender. A match duration as laughable as gnat's phallus 🦟 Sorry.

Looks like Sora is an evening person too
I just wonder what has motivated the guy finally. And why it took so 'long'.

He isn't terrible when winning. It is more when losing.

Anton played great vs alexis, deserved win

 

[TampaBayTableTennis]

Great win for Anton! On a nice run here...

I'm watching it on a train hoping that I won't disconnect too often or for too long. Only adds excitement

Amazing performance by Anton. He's on fire.

After watching the blistering Kallberg v Lebrun game, the opening game of Hugo vs Simon feels like my video is playing at 0.7x speed.

Maybe a future Kallberg blade is my next EJ purchase.

Good match by Sabine, better match by Miwa. It's always amazing to see the players who are better than Sabine in topspin to topspin on both sides play her. All they do is transition her and it makes her ability to hit perfect shots critical, especially if they are pressuring here in serve and serve return.

Moaning beats choing

Tomo should be moanin' moar... japanese people are good at moanin' !

you hear that loud and low voice on the baryton sax ? it's Dima

Today Tomo's mood was like

WTF, did someone just straight out bring bagpipes to a WTT event? The cameramen caught those guys during HY vs Kaufmann, but it wasn't clearly visible. You could hear them during Lebrun vs Kallberg too after pretty much every point. It's so hilarious.

Oh, I meant no disrespect. Disagreement isn't disrespect.

feel free to elaborate.

You're the one who made an assertion, the burden of elaboration is on you.

My personal experience does not align with your opinion which you have presented as fact.

For the race, Anders Lind is going to oust the overrated Jorgic from the last 16th last place. The Lee Sang Su vs Simon Gauzy battle is the most exciting match to follow cos' Lee could go straight up to 1365 points , only 1 place shy from the last 16th one.
Gauzy for now is at the 13th place behind LYJ with 1775 points, but he has to secure this place with those 175 points more awarded to semi-finalists. With 350 points in semi-final, Lee would get 1565 points, but would still be behind Alexis Lebrun who'll get 90 points more this week, 1650 points. If Simon wins tomorrow, he'll secure Alexis' position. I think the Bros. will support him to death.

if anything, that embarrassing lost in Montpelier should be the start of his character development arc lmao

I notice a pattern with Sweden and South Korea players in terms of when they can play using their own uniform at WTT Champions Events. With South Korea, matches outside Asia they can wear their own gear. With Sweden, matches outside Europe they can wear their own gear.
