    Finally blocked too.
  2. German Open 2018

    It's working for me today...
  3. German Open 2018

    That's a reasonable point. The one thing I have never found is any feeling that Truls hides his serves. But violations are violations and the rules are so inconsistently applied that all kinds of arguments over right and wrong are inevitable.
  4. German Open 2018

    The refs are probably being graded/evaluated. This stuff tends to happen when they are being graded.
  5. German Open 2018

    When the lady calls the fault, it is the first time you see him serving facing us, and it is pretty obvious the ball disappears, though it didn't bother Truls as much as the calls.
  6. German Open 2018

    They called him for hiding them with his shoulder. Most likely a prior opponent complained.
  7. German Open 2018

    Gacina has a very good backhand, and Aruna also has a good backhand. The days where Aruna had a bad backhand are gone, it is the disparity in the strokes that is stark.
  8. German Open 2018

    I think it was last year that Freitas was in the Prelim of a tournament. That was amazing to see.
  9. German Open 2018

    A lot depends on how much his opponent is struggling with his serve. And unfortunately, that is something that is very player specific no matter how good a server you are.

    The biggest thing is for you to read the no spin ball. You often do not read it and treat it like backspin. The other thing is to not try to kill the high ball too hard. Just loop it somewhere. It is easy to loop the ball long if you are trying to kill it. Lastly, learn to loop the ball...

    I love how far apart Ma Long and Xu Xin are in the draw. Now we just need Fang Bo to play Dima or Timo and everything is perfect!
  12. German Open 2018

    Lol... not sure his ranking after doing that will satisfy the hardliners...
  13. German Open 2018

    Thanks, I confused her with Qian Tianyi.
  14. German Open 2018

    Yes, CNT. I have to go back to that - I quit watching out of surprise when it was 3-0.
  15. German Open 2018

    I am fairly sure that Truls won that match. Not sure why you think Darko did.
  16. German Open 2018

    I also think being up 3-1 and losing every game by 2 points doesn't help his cause.
  17. German Open 2018

    No, I thought raineverever wrote this was a formal policy that losing in the qualifiers had harsh consequences on playing the pro tour. Maybe I missed that. YZY does have a chance to redeem himself in U21. It is not a permanent ban BTW, just for a period of time.
  18. German Open 2018

    I think losing in qualifiers like that leads to a ban on playing for a while. Going to be a tough year for YZY.
  19. German Open 2018

    Yes, Gauzy is problem opponent for Boll. Boll has serious problems with Gauzy's service and that prevents Boll from getting into rallies as he likes to.
