And this is where a socialist system gives a chance to ANYONE to succeed. Your problem is: you're american, and the AAU doesn't care building a valid table tennis program for kids like you. Basketball, american football, baseball, yeah sure you'll get help for pennies. Volleyball and football...

USA a market for growth... *cough cough* yeah sure they showed us they were worth it right ? wooden floor instead of concrete, air conditionning at full blast, you play in a tent, yeah sure... India.... 71st sporting nation in the world yeaaaaah Try again sir...

Good news I loved that one when I read it, hope the US Smash will follow as well.

Fact is Joola is trailing the other brands, so they have to sponsor a name in Europe, Habesohn being a regular in the WTT and ITTF competitions, he gets a sponsorship. Also, There's no much austrian left between him and Robert Gardos. Ovidiu Ionescu has to face a younger and talented generation...

So what ? did he stop being dominant by changing his serves? nah Was FZD a cheater ? nah, was he way more dominant than WCQ is now ? heck yeah !!! That's all I'm saying, Of course WCQ and LSD cheat ON PURPOSE, and that's what is completely different from athletes who take bad routines since an...

everyone told the flooring was poor: who's the basketball idiot in America that declares it should be wooden flooring everywhere + air conditioning at full blast so that the ball had curious moves ? Those are the reasons why the US should NOT EVER FOREVER HOST ANY MAJOR EVENT. They don't take...

Every french player was wearing + playing the brand he was endorsing no matter his age or career achievements during the last french nationals. Even Stéphane Ouaiche, who's not in the France's team anymore since before the pandemic is sponsored by Andro (Adam Bobrow knows it well...), and he's...

Seriously guys... I'm coming from an era where the motto was "either way, deal with it", that's what Felix did, and he did well: he's done his best match ever vs WCQ ! 14 receives down yeah, his best match with 14 same serves he couldn't handle, but still he managed to win 1 point more overall...

It's not engrained in the french culture to discuss if serve's are legal or not. First when you start at a low level (départemental until régional) teams don't have umpires and referees, it's both teams that do that, so the legal aspect of discussing serves could lead to a very bad atmosphere...

I'm not that surprised being a musician. There are tons of kids who want the same guitar as Joe Bonamassa or the same bass as Marcus Miller. But when you really get the knowledge, you then understand that Bonammassa has his trusty Les Paul completely tweaked by luthiers, technicians/electronics...

Australia deeply regrets making a deal with the US for the submarines, now they try to get back to France like Canada does, anyways it's not China that will sell any subs to Australia: China actually hires ex-french navy fighter pilots to know how to build a valid naval air force...

I know, but France is not different than any country on the planet for that matter. Now if you explain this to the club that hired your athlete, they'll ask the FFTT to start the league only in October. If it's one of the top 2 athletes in the squad, the FFTT knows it's better to get the best...

September 8th for now, the only day without any competition, 3 spots in the same hour span, if I were you...

Also you can regularly check the FFTT calendar here to see when it starts, but generaly speaking they never release the pro competitions' calendar before august every year. To me it won't start before Monday September 15th, between the Champions Macao and the China Smash, and the second round...

I see here you can get an apointment on September 4th...

My take on it: let TT die in America, not a big deal, as it is not taken seriously there. Between what they did to Hugo and now this sh.t with a an MLTT-like crowd, not a single american able to pass the first round (sorry, yeah Amy Wang did... vs Lilly Zhang... *cough*) with plenty of wild...

What it takes for a nation to win a Grand Slam event in modern table tennis It all start with Mao decreting in the early 50’s that table tennis would be China’s national sport. This marked a disrupting move as TT was played by amateur/tennis players in major events. And as all those kind of...

Bouloussa and Jellouli already does... just saying, man you're a so-called "pros agent" and you can't get news about that ? it's your job to get those informations Morocco have made some offers to get Marius Benchat, Adam Ghounim and Reda Nemras, born, raised and trained in France. They're U19...

WCQ would have won Truls if he did not show this cry baby/diva behavior after the mixed doubles final for a broken racket...
