  1. WTT Contender Tunis 2025 Apr 22-27

    Even though LA2028 is still a ways off, you still want to be within striking distance of the lead pack. You want to get invited to WTT Champions events, NER limit of 4, and WTT Smash events, NER limit of 6. Hirano is right at 6, and I think she's banking on doing well at the 2025 WTTC. Kihara...

    I don't recall issues like this at SC Goa. I wonder why they didn't use that location.
  3. WTT Contender Tunis 2025 Apr 22-27

    https://worldtabletennis.com/eventInfo?eventId=3089 Three days of qualification starts Tuesday, April 22. Main Draw starts on Friday, April 25. Felix Lebrun is top seed in MS. Hina Hayata is top seed in WS. Both will be looking for redemption after bowing out early at the World Cup. WS must...

    I'm not up to date with all the nicknames. I know the others, but is Small Carton, Miwa?

    Match is still ongoing, but KM is showing a ton of fight in her

    Looks like live chat got closed because someone body shamed KM. Moderator should just kick off the offender rather than close the whole chat.

    I guess Duda forgot about TTR. Soooo close.

    Bruna 4-0 over Szocs! So happy for her!
  9. ITTF Men's and Women's World Cup Macao 2025, 4/14-20

    Wow.. you can use a TTR challenge as a really long timeout.

    The future is blindingly bright for Miwa. She was unbeatable when she could control the middle. And her FH was unstoppable. Just need a little more consistency. But LA2028 is looking really good for her.

    TBH, it was fitting for CIC to win. She was the better player for most of the match. Hayata's footwork, anticipation, shot stability were just awful the 1st three games. Only reason it went to 7 is that Hayata is a fighter. I don't know. I think she needs a coaching change as she did not...

    You could say the same for Odo. They would potentially meet in 2nd round (QF). Odo won their last two meetings, Mima won the one prior to those two.
  13. F ESP 1-0 ARG After Extra Time, FIFA World Cup 2026

    I don't remember how many events it took her, but Odo's rise to WR#8 was pretty meteoric as well. I am very happy for the both of them.

    She also got a game off of male chopper Mathieu De Saintilan in MLTT so she definitely improved vs. choppers.

    I went back to the video, and I didn't hear any umpire call a let. Only thing I saw was the umpire pointing to edge.
  16. ITTF Men's and Women's World Cup Macao 2025, 4/14-20

    LYJ was robbed. If it touched (and Dima did acknowledge it), then point is over and LYJ wins the game. Weak umpire.
  17. ITTF Men's and Women's World Cup Macao 2025, 4/14-20

    Bruna gets her continental boost, but at least she's significantly improving. She dominates Manika to move into KO. Well done.
  18. F ESP 1-0 ARG After Extra Time, FIFA World Cup 2026

    Hirano has expiring points on Tuesday of next week so her gap with Hashimoto will increase by 175 pts (-265 + 90). I suspect with all of the buzz generated by Hashimoto that she will get invites to Contender/Star Contender events. Yokoi and Sato also have chances to increase their WR at Tunis...

    Poor Lily. She actually played SHW pretty well, but errors crept in and her confidence dropped. Perhaps from the pressure of needing to win 3-1 or 4-0 as SHW held the tie breaker.
