Ma Long is overdue for a bad match. But it obviously doesn't have to happen in Japan.

Depends on the draw, he could always meet ML in the quarter finals.

I do. ITTF needs to create rules that force this kind of scheduling to go away. Happens more frequently than you might think. Though it sometimes looks like the players don't care because they never bring it up. I think playing multiple events has a bigger toll.

Joo would be pretty close.

Going to bed. Can't stay up watching nothing.

It is the new ranking system, you know, the one that everyone insults because Ma Long is #5. It makes non-performance stick out like a sore thumb.

Back when youtubers were making TT videos popular with highlights and short forms, they waited until some of them had good channels then went after the good channels making them either work with the ITTF or go out of business on youtube. It is just scummy behavior.

Monopolies maintain their ability to continue doing crap by treating the competition "nicely".

It is increasingly clear that Ishikawa and Mizutani have a non-zero probability of losing the singles spot. Mizutani seems to be doing something about it and was lucky to meet his challenger yesterday. Ishikawa has the World Cup but nothing else so far.

Yes, it is the preferred serving point in high level men's table tennis, more so since the backhand over the table was developed and made it easy to attack anything to the backhand. The forehand flick and forehand short push are difficult technical strokes and even when mastered are usually...

You guys are lucky - ittf kept blacking out the match for me.

If he doesn't get one he isn't going. They are realizing that both Mizutani and Niwa is too much if they take doubles seriously. If Yoshimura gets his team rank to #4, whoever is #3 isn't going unless Harimoto plays doubles and that doesn't make sense either.

Well I can explain what he is trying to say because I have a similar problem. Usually, pros drive most of their stroke with their body not their arm. If you watch carefully, you will see that they often rotate their upper body and hips to move the racket and the upper arm rarely moves much to...

Table 2 stream has gone down. Thanks ittf.

Wow, Duck hunting is hard in Hong Kong...

Boll looking like a duck again...

Watching Polcanova play always heartens me. When she lost to Liu Shiwen, the score was terrible but the quality was high. Her height gives her easy power and the leftiness a tricky dimension and she has managed to remain limber. Every time I see Sofia, I think Europe has a chance.

Shibaev and Dima usually do well vs choppers too. It usually comes down to the forehand quality and the practice hours.
