Somebody from ITTF is lurking on this thread guys !! Beware !! :) ... anyways I missed that ... should find this out .. interesting

Just watching the highlights of Liu Shiwen vs Cheng Meng ... is it me or really suddenly Cheng Meng's Quads has grown FZD / ZJK size ? ... don't remember seeing that before ...

I agree but considering the Japanese and Chinese dominance on the sport, if not for anything but just help in spreading the word should not ITTF hire some permanent interpreters for Platinum world tour events ?

Looks like good times guys !!! hopefully more media to follow !

So the california chapter had to send their Chief Troublemaker to wake up the New York division chief ! ... works for me :)

Ha ha ... who else would be a better candidate to interview .. I would say Robert Chen has snagged the Lead Pingpong-troublemaker !

All of the points you have metioned are good but if you don't have a decent coach/partner to feed multiballs its difficult to to do ...

I already saw the stuff you posted, I was asking Tony if he has any insider's scoop :)

@Tony : Any scoop on the recent Liu Guoliang and ZJK drama ?

I have to agree with usualsuspect in your general observations .. however you have to look at the nuances a little bit ... Miu Hirano : Shovel serve and attack on topspin ball early in the game , ability to stay in the rally on both sides but does not have enough strength to generate power on...

Thank you Tony for the context, but thats exactly what I was trying to say ... just because its become normalized over a period of time does not make it right, you know what I mean ...

I am just happy D-Queen did not pull out her injury drama like she did against LSW .. I guess it was just an open .. so she did not prepare her lines ..

raises the question is she playing through pain ? She said "It hurts a lot" as per your translation .. and did he really say "Finish quickly . We need to put an all nighter for the report" ... LOL

Well , she might give competition to Liu Shiwen for the third spot ... but I don't think she is close to Ding Ning and Zhu Yuling .. the new ratings need to settle down .. we can talk about ratings after two years

Yup .. this is the point I was trying to make ... not Miu Hirano she did not beat the top three players .. Cheng Meng and Wang Manyu are really good but still the top 3 in CNT is Ding Ning, Zhu Yuling and Liu Shiwen in that order ... This will shake CNT to the core ... and the good thing about...

When was the last time , men's or women's , somebody defeated the top 3 Chinese players ... just asking ?

In the modern game to improve you need the counter as well ... think of it just as an extension of the block whenever you see the ball early enough
