Hari-boy. Does what he does best, beat a close to the table Asian player. Revenge is sweet I guess...

Depends in what you modeled, Zhang Jike uses his upper arm out of sync with the body more than most modern forehands. With spin on the celiuloid ball, it was easier to get away with that, but with the plastic ball power requirements, it just placed much more pressure on technique.

Blast from the very ancient past.

I believe it hit the edge, but I am older than CCY.

They just have to file the right paperwork, I am sure they have enough room to manage such stuff if they really care.

Deadly third ball attacks are really a function of serve and serve return and how they set up the 3rd and 4th ball. No one has deadly third ball attacks against good returns. That said, the main thing you pointed out is that the experience and ability gap between you and DerEchte fueled...

Felix is so hard to play for similar reasons to why Wang Chuqin is hard to play (leftiness aside), maybe even more extreme - low trajectory topspins close to the table so the arc doesn't betray the spin on the ball until you get used to it. Wild stuff.

Hugo showng really good form. He may be leaving the Braziluan Togami label behind.

Bummer. Sofia really needed that win.

So I was a blocker for most of my TT "career" in the early days, and even my best stroke (backhand topspin) was played largely with the arm. Most of the change in the physicality of my technique came when I learned to block with technique, no matter how inadequately. I developed an arm...

I feel he was right about the call, but whether that was deserving of such behavior, who knows...

Travelling all the way from Taiyuan to Mendoza doesn't seem very smart to me, but probably was a result of many considerations.

I think K3 is much more boosted.

You are a softie lol... no, their sponge wasn't *that* hard...

Absolutely zero problem doing this, and unless you are at a pretty strong, we are not at the level where our strokes should be *that* sensitive to minor changes in equipment age based on storage and the kinds of quality I have seen from ESN and DHS in recent times. I know many players who stock...

If Jorgic isn't jet-lagged, Alexis has gone up a level for sure.

Youtube with VPN pointed at Canada. It might be on ESPN3 in the US, but the only reason I bought VPN was to watch WTT matches so I am already paying subscription fee in my head given their (WTT's) complete inability to think about their fans when making these stupid decisions around licensing...

Wasn't it 3-1?
