    As Jesus said. Let he who is without sin cast the first stone. His issue is very manageable and is clearly being managed. People with very high expectations for themselves are sometimes not resilient when they struggle because they think things should be easier than they are. Paradoxically...

    You mean the world cup after Ma Long came to the US for knee surgery that August that saved him from retiring? Since you cited wins by Nagasaki over ZYL from a period where we now know she was dealing with undiagnosed cancers, I no longer am surprised by your using anything to not cede a simple...

    Thats very fine and well, maybe at 18, you were the top player in your country and had the pressure of the country on you. And in many countries. 18 is not mature enough to do many things, most 18 year olds with few exceptions are still counseled extensively by their parents in order to ensure...

    Just like the early timeout, it will be a matter of time before the world catches up to adopting this tactic.

    Because Harimoto was screaming after every point, that makes him more stable? Because he actually managed to win with his technical limitations? Moreover, just because one player takes a path, every other great player must walk the same path? How are measuring this mental stability? By body...

    You can't tell a top athlete"s muscle mass by looking at them. Without historical context in yheir optimal stature, you will be projecting without appreciating the tradeoffs.

    It is hardly about moodiness. The kid is 18. Ii dont know where people get this idea from that 18 year olds are supposed to display the maturity of people 10 years older when battling stress. Thats why people think that someone getting repeated opportunities in the face of occasionally...

    This event has actually made me a fan of Wang. Well played by both players. Amazing match, instant classic.

    Little Master is on steroids man! What a phenomenal player!

    Not really, the trend was getting dangerous. It was like 1-7 to 7-9 or something likr that. You wanted to make sure your man was ready for anything.

    The pointa From 10-8 to 11-10 in that Game 2 will enter the table tennis strategy books for all time placement kessons.

    Whenever I watch Hugo play WCQ, why do I feel they are playing different sports on so many points? Hugo is playing tennis while Wang is playing table tennis? Good luck to Sora and Wang and may the best player on this day win!

    The final is going to be a battle whoever plays. Wang vs Sora is going to bring out the fangirls, I wouldn't be surprised if they use flash photography on Sora to make sure their man brings it home.

    Don't agree with a lot of this, but in any case, everyone has a right to their opinions, even distorted ones. Enjoy!

    Shin is clearly good at singles. It will be interesting to see the countermeasures.
  17. Sabine Winter switches to antispin

    No reminders from @pongfugrasshopper required for this one, lol!

    Tiebans will just say Wang is losing to prevent Winter from entering the top 10 or something like that. Shin can do it, but Wang has to have a down day. Shin actually has a better chance against Sun than Wang to me, because Wang's backhand is harder to penetrate and Shin has the backhand game to...

    No one sees spin like Sun Yingsha - Wang Yidi can't play like this even if she wanted to.
  20. ITTF Men's and Women's World Cup Macao 2026, 3/30-4/5

    I don't, I know Ayhika Mukherjee did once, but unless you can pressure her backhand, Sun Yingsha is unbeatable.
