After watching the bronze medal match, if Wang Manyu doesn't win this, it will be the ultimate proof that table tennis is not mathematics lol.

I don't think some of the arguments already made will be affected. And FZD is still one Bundesliga loss from more scrutiny and with the different tables and balls in play in those leagues as well as the overall professional level, none of that is far fetched.

Guys, there were times when ML did things like this to FZD when he was #1 and FZD was #2. People should stop making it sound like LSD or FZD are simply just not at different stages of their careers.

Played a tournament today. Two events, U2250 and Open. Will put some notes on the matches in chronological order U2250 First match: Played a kid that I lost to the last time I played him 0-3. It was a match that changed my approach to TT going forward, I promised to play athletic TT goijg...

Maybe his approach and Dima's are the same and shared wisdom amongst pros. I have stopped using as much edge tape though I suspect i will nick my blade at more spots than the pros do lol...

First retiree sent home in quick fashion. Second down but battling....

Yuan Licen plays at another level in China.

Same here. Should be around 1030 CT. WCQ vs FZD is box office. I get the impression WCQ will rise to the challenge.

Yeah, but the problem with this framing, as brilliantly laid out as it is, is that it is very different from the original question posed by OP and is unable to yield some of the insights posed by the original question if it is insightfully discussed. Moreover, one could start saying things like...

Pros have the benefit of continually trying out different configurations of the same equipment over and over and have a lot of relatively reliable insights vs even the best EJs as the best EJs don't get equipment for free and don't train enough to flip equipment as quickly as the pros do. So in...

How long have you been playing for? What is your rating level?

All the games were close so the score communicates a bit more dominance than the games did.

A lot of of this has to be taken in context. When he says too fast, he caveats it in a lot of ways you might have missed: 1) He thinks his blade is pretty fast and that is part of the reason he might struggle to do more with Zyre on the backhand. He thinks he might find Zyre more usable on a...

Kanak....

He tethered himself to a position early and is bound to defend it. There are countries and cultures where what you consider stupid is actually considered important (sometimes answered by age, sometimes answered by sex, sometimes answered by potential for royal succession). In the end, it...

Okay, provincial, my bad. Test it on your backup and run experimenta on your back up if you are concerned about results. Usually you find someone you trust and follow their recommendations. Boosting is not a super hard science, everyone does things slightly differently and has different...

This boosted rubber path is usually not for players who do not have someone around them to guide them. Starting with an expensive national rubber as your first foray into boosting is not the way to go either if you care about getting it right. On the other hand, i have never had issues with...

When a pro plsyer is not competing anymore, they tend not to care what they use in general. That said, anyone taking a reference about the feeling of a setup to refer exclusively to the blade is exercising their prerogative He (ZJK) probably played 2 or three rubbers throughout his career...

Yep. Very hard to remember when someone stated common sense that no player with their experience would debate.
