I agree with Jaffer. There is no right or wrong, it depends on the style of the player. Personally, I find higher throw much easier to play with. But that is because I have played with high throw for such a long time. All of my strokes are adapted to high throw, so it really is no problem to...

I think in the Men's event Wang Hao will win.

I'm looking to purchase a mid-range table tennis robot for both home use and occasional club use. I have a budget of £900. I am considering these two robots: TT Matic 303 Practice Partner 60 Has anyone used either of these robots? Could you give any feedback? Are there other robots I should...

It will be a shame if looping becomes less effective and just driving/smashing the ball becomes the dominant form of attack. This would make table tennis less entertaining to watch and play. I just want to have a practice with the new ball myself. Anyone know when they will be available for the...

I think in the Men's event Xu Xin will win. I think in the Women's event Ding Ning will win.
