Baby Shark is back, baby!

I have seen players get to 2300 without a solid pips game, it is all relative.

I wanted Wong Chun Ting to terrorize Japan. Was gutted when no one else on Hong Kong managed to win a match vs Austria, and two of them were close enough that it was really sad.

It was definitely a mix of both Kao relaxing and Falck giving up and relaxing out of hopelessness. But Falck played way below his level - Kao should probably win but not that much.

It was a choke job, by the time he recovered, it was too late. If he had the same mindset in the 1st game that he got to late in the third game, he would have played much better. The pressure got to him and he started thinking too much.

Denmark moved Groth to the third slot since they realized that Slovenia would likely rely on Darko winning two and Kozul winning the third slot. I didn't think Rasmussen was good enough for the strategy to make a difference but between his play and Hribar's choke job, it was enough to make it work.

No stakes lol!

Would Lin have beaten Truls if he had getting past Lim? Who really knows....

I think he is just following the results from the national champs

Doo Hoi Kem is back!

Two matches in one day is a lot of fun! Sweden tonight!

My coach told me that I didn't know how to spin the ball. I said, "I do spin the ball". He asked my fellow students (grade and high school students), "Does NL spin the ball?" "Not really." "You drive the ball which is okay for some balls, but if you learn to spin, you can attack more balls...

They likely need a win from Alexis or Gauzy against Germany. But it is better than being on the same side as China for sure.

Has Togami played at this WTTTC?

You can do it with Elmer Rubber Cement to start off with.

Sometimes, I wonder how Butterfly managed to get Fan Zhendong, even as I know they already had ZJK. I would have thought DHS would fight to prevent that. Must have cost a lot of money and political capital.

While much more winnable is a draw vs Germany etc., this more clearly relieves the pressure of failure. No one really cares if you lose 0-3 vs China - TB will still have his day. :D.

If you are in a region outside the USA, then it is on youtube unless someone (like in the USA, ESPN or NBC) has the broadcasting rights since it is an Olympic qualifier of sorts. If you use a VPN set to Canada, you will see the video on youtube.

I agree (for the record, she uses Anti-spin backhand and short pips forehand), though I think the Indian player was "lucky" at critical junctures and was seeing the ball really well with her smashes and counters on that day, but that is what happens in life in any single game/match. If they...

The byes are a gift to the group winners. Top 8 are getting Olympic spots automatically.
