Say the ugly people... :p

Sora's body language is reprehensible.

Harimoto's style of play is shit, but even if he turns it around 180, it's gonna be for naught if he remains a self-hating amoeba.

Underlying psychological issues need to be addressed. It's a mental health matter and shouldn't ever be overlooked.

Never said anything about Truls' mindset. He was just oscillating, having ups and downs, which isn't untypical for a youngster. With Harimoto, though, there is an obvious pattern. I believe there are self-esteem issues there.

Yup. I remember Truls choking really bad a few times. Dropping 3-1 against Jorgic in Montreaux in 2022 was one of the worst chokes I've ever seen, tbh. He seems to have toughened up considerably since then. I think the 2023 ETTTC may have been the turning point, with the Paris Olympics being...

I feel you, mon frere. Chin up. I wish I had your youth, not to mention, your skill.

Sora is impressive. Whoever wins between Alexis and Truls is going to have a handful.

Trulls triggers people. I remember a bunch of Koreans being real salty after his epic comeback against Lim Jonghoon at the 2021 WTTC. A lot of really nasty comments on YouTube. Harimoto definitely ought to STFU, though. 1. Truls improved his mental game immensely while he remains a pathetic...

It obviously isn't just you.

Moregard cannot sustain a rally as long as the average elite-level player. Doesn't mean he sucks at it, it just isn't his forte at the highest level. Keep in mind, Truls underwent two surgeries on his right knee and had withdrawn from ETTTC 2025 citing "genetic inability to produce...

I train with a chopper relatively often, her racquet is ridiculously slow. Defensive blade, defensive backside ⬛ and long pips 🟥. Some choppers combine long pips and offensive rubbers, I think it's the best way to go.

A chopper needs to be able to counterloop. Gionis didn't get as far as he did simply by chopping, it's his devastating FH hook that made all the difference. And Joo Saehyuk wasn't a stranger to third ball attacking. I've noticed that female choppers tend to have issues with counterattacks in...

Not getting into philosophical debates here, but what happened is what should be discussed. Anything beyond that is empty speculation and projecting. What's worse, I've typed "Feelix", which is the French version of Neelix. I'm so terribly sorry.

Nah, you're overthinking this. Rewatch the last seven points of the match. This was a classic psychological meltdown. 10-7, Harimoto serves long into the backhand side, Alexis steps around, receives with a spinny FH, Harimoto mistimes the BH punch, hits the top of the net (unforced error)...

That yellow card for Dima wasn't booed loudly enough. These umpires need to fu*** off already.

Tomokazu Harimoto The most hyped-up child prodigy in the history of table tennis... Grows up to become the biggest choker this sport has ever seen.

These umpires are utterly unqualified.

I'm old enough to remember better days. It wasn't always like this.

I drove three hours to watch the semis yesterday. Saw hundreds of familiar faces at the venue. But that's just the thing, practically everyone in those stands (including myself and the gang from my club) was either a player, a coach or a club official who got in for free. I don't think a single...
