I don't remember Zhu Chengzhu ever being particularly good vs chop. What changed?

Looks like Germany willplay Kaufmann against Harimoto and to that end, put Mittelham and Duda in the XD. Will be interesting to see whether that yields fruit on the whole. I wonder whether they will test Winter in XD at some point...

Ladies and Gentlemen, as much as we try to be laissez faire, please if someone posts something blatantly undesirable to the forum just report it rather than creating a trail of posts that will need to be deleted eventually. I have deleted posts related to wishing death to those who erroneously...

Umpire messing up the score a few times in Croatia - France. What's the cause???

Charlotte Lutz beats Lea Rakovic 3-0. I guess France was saving her for Croatia while Croatia tired its players out in Round 1...

Gauzy does a behind the back at 0-1, 9-6 that has Arapovic looking lost lol....

If someone had told me that Yang Haeun still had a WTT title in her, I would have called them a liar lol. Congrats to her. https://www.worldtabletennis.com/description?artId=5671

64 is pretty decent on forehand, it is a style choice, people who are used to arcing low balls with thick brush with confidence will not be huge fans of 64 vs something like 09c or Zyre or 05 because arc and spin matter when you are trying to thread the needle under precise...

Dignics broadly is not as jumpy as Tenergy and Tenergy 19 was designed to not be as jumpy as T05 (I have two sheets of T19, just haven't played with them, I have tested a Teammates blade, he said he was happy to switch from 05 to 19 on forehand because he could play flat more). The thing is...

Those are all good rubbers, probably the most all round is Dignics 80, but Dignics 64 and Tenergy 19 are pretty spinny and good as well. They are much faster and broadly produce more spin than the Vega Pro/Hexer/Rakza 7 generation though I have a soft spot for Hexer,C-1 and Rakza 7, but they...

Definitely not good if true. Dangerous especially if the inciter is capable of executing on it ore getting others to. Hopefully, there are steps take to address it.

At least the fans are clearly engaged. I think as long as it is relatively clean and civil the athletes appreciate that.

"Super Fast Carbon" sounds like hyperbole, but if you can move and hit the ball like Hugo, you can use anything you want. Most players, after trying it and fatiguing or hurting their arms and shoulders trying to get more pace on loops and blocks, will gladly take a bit more help from the...

You are too nice, pointing out the obvious...

With Harimoto and Hayata playing WD together vs Hong Kong, how big is this purported timeout-gate beef at the moment and can it derail Team Japan? The thing about beef is that you may have absolutely zero beef with someone, and someone may have absolutely zero beef with you, but at third party...

They wanted Alexis to play Jang Woojin in singles. It might have had to do with Felix's preferred XD partner. Almost worked too, but very dependent on Alexis.

Sweden might waste a great effort from Bergstrom. But maybe not. It is funny how you would expect their weakness to be the women's matchup and the worst scoreline is Anton losing 0-3 to Dang.

Hugo is not a fan of carbon so I don't understand all the carbon blade suggestions. That said, given how badly Xiom handled his World Cup win and the stocking of his blade, i would not blame Hugo for leaving them. That said, I will believe it when I see it.

Is that framework for gaining and retaining newcomers in pickleball replicable for TT and if not why?

If you look at the Youtube video comments, or watch later in the video, turns out Anders Lind tore a muscle in his hip/thigh that needed about 2 weeks to recover from the pain.
