  1. If you are the CNT boss, what would you do?

    I'd tell all the CNT and junior players to throw away their H3 and switch to BTY or ESN rubbers. I bet they'd do better overnight 😂 Some Chinese coaches and players have even recommended this. E.g. Zhu Yuling beat Liu Shiwen after switching to BTY rubbers. She even won the match using BTY's...
  2. Form is simply a means of consistency (a physics based approach)

    IMO, form simply means performing at your expectations within your style of play. Consistency on the other hand is the ability to maintain that form.

    They could use natural source e.g. kratom for this. Google says “At low doses, it acts as a stimulant.” Kratom / mitragynine does not appear to be on WADA’s 2026 Prohibited List as a banned substance Kratom – scientifically, it is referred to as Mitragyna speciosa.

    It was. Sidorenko should have taken more time before each serve to disrupt Truls' momentum. IMO

    In the post match interview Sidorenko indirectly said that Truls was playing mind games against him.

    Sidorenko was fast and good. Truls' "dirty" trick in the deciding game almost worked!

    Get a red for the second yellow, get replaced immediately by another umpire and get suspended for two matches 😂

    I predicted Truls wouldn’t make it to the final. Felix will outpace the heavier Sora. Felix vs. Vladimir will be a dramatic finale.

    I have the same thought. WTT should round the numbers instead of using decimals like 30.4° = 30° and 30.5° = 31°. I think many of us doubt that the VAR can measure with 0.01° accuracy. IMO

    You mean against Vladimir Sidorenko? IMO he wasn't choking, Harimoto lost the match outright. Vladimir has been great so far in this tournament.
