  1. 27th ITTF-Asian Table Tennis Championships 2024, Astana, 10/7-13

    Great win for Jinnipa Sawettabut over Sreeja Akula. Jinnipa secures a spot at the WTTC with the win. She has such a powerful BH and now has added consistency to it. Team Thailand is going to be strong.

    Great 3-2 win for Shinozuka over Noshad Alamiyan who is a very difficult player to play against. This was a confidence booster he needed.

    She needs an appointment with a sports psychologist ASAP.

    Great back and forth battle between Mima and Satsuki, but it was Mima's experience in the end that prevailed.

    As driversbeat already pointed out, Hayata does have something exclusive to her even if you wish to diminish it. That's okay, folks will remember her having to save 9 match points against a core CNT player she had never beaten before to secure the bronze at a World Championship. Unfortunately...

    Hmmm.. somehow I get the feeling that we wouldn't hear the end of it had it been Hayata who lost to Lee Eunhye ;) So Hirano excels at certain statistics... just not the things that people care about like medaling at the Olympics or Asian Championships. You have to get through the early rounds...

    Miu Hirano is in trouble down 0-2 vs. Lee Eunhye at the moment: www.youtube.com/watch?v=9o-0NF0VwWM

    Odo pulled through in a tough match against Suthasani Sawettabut. Odo was in real trouble down 1-2,1-5. Then, she played the way we saw in the WTT tournaments with power and precision. Suthasani has always been good, but she is way under ranked at WR#59.

    Even the Chinese coach showed a lot of appreciation for the kid's efforts.

    From Hina's account on X: Thank you so much for your continued support. I had resumed training in preparation for competing in the Asian Championships, but while I was training there I hurt my arm again and had to withdraw from my singles match. To all the fans who were looking forward to the...

    MLTT's Kheith Cruz, who has yet to play in MLTT, gave Batra a good battle losing 3-1, 14-12.

    According to this note from Maharu Yoshimura, with his and Odo's win over LYJ/CSY, they win the right to a XD spot (I think?) at the World Championship.

    SYB played Hirano on Thursday Aug 1 (Hayata also went 7 in a best of 7 the same day) SYB played Hayata on Saturday Aug 3

    Hayata not pull her own weight in Paris? Without Hayata getting the bronze where Hirano failed, Japan would have a big fat zero WS medal in Paris. Despite the failure of the last couple of points, the Hayata/Miwa pairing gave Japan a chance at upsetting China in WT doubles. Would you say...

    Good win for Odo in particular after her performance vs. Batra. Doubles is going to be important for her as she fights for the 3rd spot of the Olympics. I saw Miwa massage her right arm after a big loop. She needs rest but has another unimportant consolation match in XD later today. She's...

    I think SYS had a sense that she was alone out there. With WMY's suddenly having to leave and CM's absence, she didn't have them to help her fend off PRK and JPN. At the WTTTC, she knew that CM had her back when battling Japan. The SYS fans (the toxic ones) that were bashing CM should reflect...

    Let's just say the day belongs to Super Miwa
  19. 27th ITTF-Asian Table Tennis Championships 2024, Astana, 10/7-13

    It's going to get really interesting in WS now. In the top half if everything goes according to ranking, we could get Miwa vs CXT. If Miwa wins, we could get a Miwa vs. SYS rematch. In the bottom half, we could see a Hirano vs. WYD with winner possibly taking on Hayata though not sure about...
