  5. Tennis player talked about making a loss on the world circuit

    This guy was WR 790 in Oct 2024, so not surprising that a random no-name top 800 player can't make a living. How pro are you if you are top 800? #200 on the PGA money list for 2024 made about $100k. He probably lost more than the tennis guy. In what pro sport can you be top 800 and expect to...

  7. How to know if my bh loop will hit the table?

    Get a rubber golf tee, like the ones used at the driving range. Put a ball on it at the edge of table and practice hitting the ball. These can be bought in various lengths. It's better if you clamp the tee to the table so the tee won't go flying away.
  8. How do Pros train to "retain" a skill?

    The simple answer is that pros read speed, spin, and trajectory of every ball and react accordingly. That's why it is hard for LP players to compete at the elite level.

    The BTY outer ALC blades are the same construction with different handles as noted above. (see the BTY blade chart) Of course blades can play different because wood is variable, manufacturing tolerances affect weight/balance, age, etc. There's an ex national team player at the club who has 3...

  17. Monqui Pong open letter to ITTF President regarding service rule
