Flaming our does nit mean what you think it means. You should be looking ar someone like Yu Ziyang if you want to go thar route though even in his case, it is more he didnt get chances to play on thr CNT. But again you would have to ignore all lot of medals that Harimoto has won to make your...

Sticking to singles: Timo Boll had no Olympic medals and 2 WTTC bronze medals. Dima has 2 Olympic bronze and no WTTC singles medals. Moregardh who is young and had early success just not on the level of Harimoto has the one Olympic silver and one WTTC silver. Felix Lebrun who is young and had...

Probably 2021 worlds. 2019 worlds and 2021 Olympics are arguable as well.

So you mean he hasnt lost to Togami in many matches before? And it is because he had early success? He has not met expectations of some for sure, but he is a good player and has and a good career, Togami is the one who really needs to explain why he plays so poorly against players like...

Well the challenge is proving it against the players he doesn’t feel comfortable playing. It is easy to prove it against the player he feels comfortable playing. Xiang Peng after all did lose to his teammates.

Ge is not going to You keep repeating this nonsense. Will you say the same about Miwa or Lin Yun Ju or Fan Zhendong or Felix Lebrun? And will you remember all the medals that Harimoto has won in his career?

Echoes of their last match - varied fast deepnpushes are working...

What did they tell him? It isn't working so far lol...

Harimoto stubbornly holding the table. He cannot win like this, Togami will take advantage of the extra time.

Is the Japanese civil war going to be a dud or tragic match that leaves people wondering what might have been in the draw had been different?

Huh?

I think this camera should enforce the rules not just focus on visibility from where the camera is placed which may not be where the player is standing. Felix got away with some stuff cs Manush Shah because of this. But since the camera clearly changed the result of a whole match (Franziska...

Hugo lost to Afanador in thr first round. He was overrated too? The main point here was that players ratings ever since the WTT went to a performance based system doesn't measure player strength in the same way and that a player can have a much higher ceiling (and lower floor) than a purr look...

What you said was what he said about Shin Yibin to argue that she was overrated. He assumes everyone thinks like him so....

Yet after writing a whole post to show yhat Duda was properly rated and that Quadri was overrated, you have been super silent on their last encounter in the context of that post. Can we cut this shit out?

Matelova has an insane amount of spin.

I get you. Youssef also beat Quadri Aruna a team event in Ghana that wasn't much reported in the West. It will be interesting to see whether he can get better. I do agree LGY didn't look sharp but Gauzy can do that to you too.

Youssef is thr Egyptian #3 but beat Uda in Tunis recently. You may not have heard of him but he is not a slouch, he and Elbeiali(the #2) beat Lim and An 3-0 in doubles.

Some of the US East coast players may have noticed that Quadri was being coached against Duda by Fanny Kokou of Togo who plays and coaches at the Westchester TT club in New York. Congrats to him on a great job.

My point still stands that did Quadri choke to give Duda the 9-3 lead? Getting a lead depends on many things and it isnt always in the control of the player like we tell stories to believe. I like to look at specific decisions or choices of the player or certain points to infer choking. It is...
