One is allowed to agree with someone on one topic but disagree with him on another. Isnt that just normal mature human behavior? I would be dead by now if I had to agree with everything someone else believed to agree with one thing they believed.

The pressure of being the #1 seed in your home country against foreign competitive opposition is huge. Those who succeed under those circumstances always evolve into another level. Remember that Pitchdord couldn't win the Commonwealth Games under comparable even if not exactly similar...

I think the Japanese fans have it right.

Felix playing Xiang Peng live now - Xiang up 2-1 but Felix up in the 4th... 2-1, 0-2 point is an all time classic...

Gracias!

That mightily sucks... you would think as a home crowd they could fo some shenanigans lol.... but maybe they prefer that to have someone advance...

The one thing I will grant you is that the blades you listed, while they generally appeal to the same players that the Cybershape is designed to appeal to, they all have regular head shape and softer composites than the Cybershape which is pure carbon (though they claim it is a special carbon)...

I like Connor Green. I could google this but I will be lazy and ask how old he is lol!

It is not a bad idea to try a seven ply all wood blade like the Szocs Signature 1 (which also has the benefit of being cheap). However, as dingyibvs pointed out, the biggest things are the patience, the training and the coaching. It takes a lot of time to develop the right mind body...

They just didn't play Miwa in adult international exhibitions when she was 11 years old and the Japanese ladies are more competitive but the hype is and was always there. TBH just wants to get on the bandwagon on the big ticket while refusing to discuss the nuances of the situation.

When you google Ina Bauer, the images do make sense as a description of how Hari celebrates. The Japanese can be so poetic...

Played TT at Allen and Sons in LA on Friday. Ate dinner after. Had good fun. Didn't expect it was going to work out, but sometimes, you get lucky.

I think that his performance at the national championships revealed his fundamental issues - what I find interesting about this match is how many unforced errors on serve receive be was able to get out of a teammate like Togami. It didn't happen on crucial points though and he was forced to win...

I think Togami is progressing nicely, this loss is just what it is and not the end of it. If he can stay at this level and bring it to international matches and Shinozuka and Matsushima fill in the lefty spot, Japan should have 3 players in top 20 and will be real threats to Germany as the...

My memory must be bad, I would have sworn he has at least one more.

Insane match.

My humble opinion is that the gap between Harimoro and Hayata was 2 years. I wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't closed next year either but if it was that was more realistic than this year. Congrats to Hayata.

Yeah but "when' is important in life, not just that it will happen one day - better to be a millionaire at 30 than at 50 though better to get there than not at all. While Felix already had continental points from the European Games and didn't need the points from the Cup this year, it hurts...

Harimoto is looping hamekamehas!

Someone needs to kidnap Hirano's dog and threaten to kill it if she doesn't win the gold medal. Seriously. She doesn't know how to move from success to success without stress.
