  1. WTT Singapore Smash 2024 3/7-3/17

    It may have been an easier one for WCQ if it wasn't his third match of the day, He couldn't run around much as he usually does, so had to be specific with his placement and going for the kill for almost every ball is also a lot of stress.

    She's not played the top Chinese in a while to be fair, and their attention has been on managing Hayata, Hirano and Harimoto in the past year. This was a chance to surprise WMY, but I guess by the third game WMY figured out a way to grind out the win like she always does.

    Interesting. How come they measured from the highest point of the ball to where his ball-holding hand fell to as at the crest of the serve? Isn't it supposed to be calibrated against the latitude that his hand was when he served, the weak hand obviously will drop naturally. If that's the...

    What event was this in particular?? Because Timo's serves looks really sus especially the reverse pendulum. Maybe it's recorded on YouTube.

    Lol, I noticed this, but I decided to refrain. Even Boll's reverse pendulum serve is blocked by his head too. It appears that those who are willing to complain will gain the dividends. Maybe we'll see Hawkeye soon enough, and then back to the drawing board for almost everyone in terms of...

    I'm curious why after all these years, you still believe that CXT and QTY are there to do the leadership's dirty work. Do you have a valid observation study on this, because CXT has stopped WMY on important occasions that one would have thought party's directives would "kick in" to save WMY...

    Sounds like Chinese conspiracy theory from one of his many haters, His shirt doesn't blow around while playing and he always tucks them in tightly - so the chances of the shirt helping him is rather low. The problem has been diagnosed, he contacts the ball behind his head.

    Commentator said he had a 91% win rate against non-Chinese in the match against Chengrui. Stat sounds crazy and implausible to me though. There's no way for me to confirm it. Off the top of my head he lost to LJH, LYJ, TH, JWJ, TY, KK in the last 3 years. I think Fan has lost more.

    LSD style is too formulaic and he's easily tricked on serves. The period for that style to shine ended before the pandemic and somebody else with a similar build already employed it. He doesn't bring anything to the table that differentiates him.

    The shovel obviously has some sinister purposes behind it. But this match against Truls, he used his normal pendulum serve throughout and yet Truls was complaining, Is there a possibility that that's just the way he learnt it from the coaches?? Or there's something with the mechanics of the...

    Even LYJ himself doesn't have clean serves, he has some funny free arm action to it, and he brings out the shovel serve when he's in trouble like (you know how) on the other side of the strait.

    Please can you somehow get stills of the point of contact for WCQ's serve as compared to Moregard's serve today? I hope it's not too big a request, Thank you very much for all you do.

    Have you seen LYJ shovel and long fast serves?? Watch the match against Felix

    TH is actually progressing really well. It's not all doom and gloom. I did a quick tally of his matchups against the top 5 Chinese players ( FZD, WCQ, ML, LJK, LGY) and he has about 28.9 ~ 30% win rate. He's dead equal against LGY, Near equal to FZD and ML. Particularly weak against WCQ and...

    TT is fast becoming a server's dilemma. Whoever has the best chiquita or first attack on that day wins.
  16. WTT Singapore Smash 2024 3/7-3/17

    I think his forehand is good enough, at least he used it well against the Chinese in some of his famous scalps. I don't see his forehand ever becoming like Wang Liqin's or even prime Ma Long, but right now, it's good enough to stay close to the top, and it can probably get good enough to become...

    I think it happens to everyone anyway ( relinquishing a huge lead). Everyone has bad days, and bad days often come in that form.
  18. WTT Singapore Smash 2024 3/7-3/17

    Or Maybe Hirano has problems with keeping a lead??
  19. WTT Singapore Smash 2024 3/7-3/17

    I wanted to see a possible matchup between him and WCQ! Bummer!!
  20. WTT Singapore Smash 2024 3/7-3/17

    In all likelihood, there are matches where he destroyed some people's faves using only the ubiquitous simple pendulum that skids off the table His career winning rate is on par with Fan and Ma. That doesn't come from serves alone. There are pros with trickier serves lounging in the top 100...
