oh boy, I can't wait for the conspiracy theories now:p

Gutted for Pitchford. Comes back to 3-3 from 3-1 down and 10-6 to Niwa in the sixth. Once again goes 10-6 down in the seventh and narowly misses out on evening it at 10-10:(

Hi guys, So after a lot of waiting I finally received my Hurricane Long 5 which my friend had bought me from China. Just want to say thanks to G_ZHANG for helping me to get a very good price that made it worthwhile not just buying it here. Before I get into the review ill just say a few things...

I only used harimoto as an example of hard work. From his training routine it’s pretty clear that to get where he is today, he has to have put in so many hours. I guess I was just trying to use an example that would show without having put in the hours of work, the tactics he brings to a game...

A combination of both. If you take Harimoto for example, he has worked incredibly hard to be where he is now, but he wouldn’t have beaten half the players he has if he didn’t play cleverly. However, the most important thing is to put in the hours of practice.

Well, my predictions were ever so slightly off. Pitchford got a Gold Drinkhall a Bronze and technically Quadri a silver. Albeit in the wrong events but close enough [emoji3]

Is that really the impression you want to leave on a Moderator?

Would make sense if they were training to peak around the start of the wtttc, just a shame the commonwealth is right before as it’s their chance to win big medals.

Walker can be a bit of a giant slayer at times. He’s beaten Yuya Oshima before. Plus, most of the England team (better and worse than Walker) have beaten Gao Ning before so I think he’s in with a chance. I’m still holding out [emoji1]. They’ll still be disappointed though especially as this was...

“Rare blue sponge” They really are trying to bank on international customers

You’re more hitting flat into the ball than spinning it on most of your shots and you are also going back and fishing way too easily.

If Liam Pitchford is still in his recent form I think he’ll get the gold. Quadri second and Drinkhall third

Ok, I’m sorry because I did say the same thing twice. But your idea still isn’t great. Firstly matches would be twice as long. Secondly, one of the best things about table tennis is the complexity of the sport and how long it takes to master it in comparison to others, take shooting for an...

I sense quite a lot of sarcasm is in this reply but you can’t use the excuse that only the pros can do good serves because it’s one of the easiest things to practice. If you genuinely can only get 1 out of 10 good serves you need to work on that
