And Vincent Purkart there for the dry humour...:LOL:

It's all becoming a bit (too) much for me. I deliberately don't follow it (anymore) every week. The whole WTT circus with their points system makes no sense and they should (to protect the players) revise it back. As for the money, if betting agencies start to discover table tennis, there will...

A politician?:D

That you are not allowed to hide the ball with your hand/arm/body is already in the rules. That you are not allowed to serve when standing next to the table is not included in the rules of the game. By forbidding this and your shoulders must be parallel to the baseline, you pretty much rule out...

They (the players) who usually stand with both shoulders parallel to their baseline (and certainly not next to their table) usually have/give legal services. How difficult can it be to implement this rule.

The opponent will probably be able to see more than what is shown here. The camera is way too high here. But...if you look at where LSD stands at the table you can 100% assume that the ball is hit above the field of play and not behind the baseline. In doing so, he is clearly reducing the field...

LSD's timing with his BH for the 10th point in game 7 was perfect. He could have taken that one even earlier but didn't.

I wrote it in another topic some time ago, table tennis should be brought like Darts in the UK and now in other Western European countries. I'm a fan!

In the past, people always clearly left with thinner sponges, usually 1.8 To learn your basic strokes, that's fine. After a (long) period of fortitude, it was usually switched to 2.0 or 2.2 mousse. If you learn loopings/topspin with 1.8, I think you are also going to learn them more easily with...

Table tennis is high-level chess!;)

* thats true! ** Thanks to the material. 95% chance that if you give him a simple inverter the set positions could be just the opposite.

LSD is therefore the more complete player than WCQ.

There is nothing wrong with a simple primitive BH-service

A failed time out by SY's coach at 2-1 and 10/9.

I put my money on the kid from video 4.;)

Having talent at a young age is also not enough. There are so many factors involved in trying to make it as a pro later on. I was lucky enough to know J-M Saive and got to play against him three times at official tournaments. J-M was a very good youth player, he was coached by his father at the...

Surely you are forgetting one important point and that is having talent. Having talent for a ball sport and possessing an exceptional innate reflex. If you lack either of these, you can assume that it will be very difficult to make it into the top 100. I know someone who was really very...

I think when it says XT Pro you can assume it's a grip-full rubber. I have been playing with a Hype XT Pro 40.0 for years and this rubber also has super good grip. I suppose it is typical of the XT series.

I have been saying/writing this for years, there is far too little parallel play or body play in table tennis. They are all madly trained with diagonal drills.
