Brilliant trick shot guys! class act!

I think Ma Long will win the Asian Cup!

That's absolutely true, and let's not forget Marcos Freitas beat FZD 4-0 earlier this year. He's beatable & has flaws, Samsonov came close to exploiting them. Dima however didn't play well tactically in that final, it could have been closer. Would have been interested to see how Timo handled FZD...

For those who are disgusted, get a grip. Fan has come from nowhere in the last 12 months, & risen to the top. He is the product of Chinese dedication to the sport. This doesn't mean there's no space at the top for the rest of the world. If we look at the rest of China (in men's tt) the elite...

Interesting... without the top Chinese this tournament could be wide open. It's a sure thing Fan Zhendong has the ability to take it out, but he's been beaten by a few of these players, and is still young and reasonably inexperienced on the World Tour. I'm hoping to see some of the Japanese...

Hi Seb, pay no heed to the negative feedback about your style. Can't please em all. For me it's great to have a commentator with technical knowledge of the sport. You and Matthew Syed stand out as quality commentators in Table Tennis for that reason. It must be a great opportunity to work...

The official fastest smash was set by New Zealander Lark Brandt, see the article below, which contains a link to the original ITTF article from 2003 during the NZ Open/GJC. http://www.jayandwanda.com/tt/speed.html This is the only smash competition I've known to be acknowledged by a national &...

What happened to Andrei Filimon? Did he withdraw from injury or something? Surely he didn't actually lose the last 2 sets 11-0, 11-0! Did anybody see this match...?

Upsets reigned galore in this year's Japan Open, with 35% of all matches in the tournament being won by the lower ranked player/pair. Last year this figure reached 29%, still above the norm for a world tour event, but it just goes to show the Japan Open is a competition for giant slayers! In...

I think in the men's singles event Ma Long will take the title.

Yes, I must say Yosua Yosan puts me in mind of Japan's super supporter! Perhaps in later years we can see Yosua Yosan in the crowd waving some kind of TTD flag! In all seriousness, it's a great site and would be nothing without the support of it's members. So, to it's most loyal member Yosua...

Outstanding interview. What an honor to communicate with a grand slam champion. These players are so humble and have time for everyone. We are fortunate to be in a sport with very few ego's at the top. Li Xiaoxia won her dream! If she's anything like Zhang Jike that won't stop her from pushing...

Fantastic statistics Tommy! In my view Wang Liqin was the most definitive, winning 3 World Champs singles and 21 Pro Tour singles. Also his lengthy time in the #1 position speaks for itself. Another stat which may warrant consideration is the Chinese national championships, but those results...

Link me. I want to see what you had to say.

Amateurish at best. Give credit where credit's due folks, stop sucking up because they work with ITTF! P of P - Your enthusiasm for the sport is appreciated, but videos like this are a backwards step in promoting Table Tennis. Keep working at it, but next time make sure it's viewer-worthy before...

Beautiful play. Kenta at his best! :D

Looking forward to the Japanese and Korean pairs challenging China for doubles medals. Most likely it will be doubles way before singles...

Watch the point at 23:57, early contribution to TTDaily's best points of 2013 compilation. Do you agree?

Amazing response to so many questions! Thanks all. I have to agree with Bojan, it doesn't appear possible for Europe to catch up to Asia in the near future. However, by being blunt like that he may stir some action to prove him wrong, I dare to hope. ;)

Quite possible they will pick Zhou Yu as one of the coaches selections, considering he's the national champion.
