Do it and hit a ball like in the videos you have posted prior. I looked at myself in a mirror shadowing my most powerful backhands and my elbow moves nowhere as much as yours even when I use the full body. You need to stop using the upper arm to push forward and keep the elbow in place and...

Ito and Calderano replace Odo and Harimoto - maybe their draws were nor as good as I thought? Hayata and Togami lost immediately to their next round opponents. World Cup is tough. I think on the whole, Shinozuka should be happy, he played much better vs Calderano than Harimoto.

Sun Yingsha doing crazy things, those gets in game 5 were ridiculous.

In the post match interview, you can see he emphasized short short and holding the table. This is usually how thr Chinese and Harimoto and Truls beat him. But Hugo was better today in all the above. Obviously Wang has a better short short game than Harimoto so Hugo will need miracles.

When you are overwhelmed by your opponent, it is hard to have good body language. Moreno when you haven't lost to said opponent in years. Because it means your usual tricks are not working.

Healing begins, medal secured.

Calderano looks really sharp and intentional under Monteiro's coaching. And that bizarre timeout was completely disarmed by Hugo.

That's an interesting timeout from Harimoto.

A match Hugo has to win as part of his post-Olympic healing.

Well it depends on the CNT prep level. But definitely no chance in hell Ito would beat WMY. So dealing with Kuai is a bit better though Kuai has likely been prepped since her last close encounter with Ito.

When a coach tells you something, it is okay to ask questions but it is even better to try it out and just send the video or what the coach is asking for back. The coach is not so much trying to give you a final stroke as he is trying to give you exercises that might enhance your overall...

You lose the point if the serve is legal. It is not a risk less challenge. You make it sound like one.

Looks like Bruna's improved form is showing here, the match like the Duda match looks winnable.

That's why I said his coach did him wrong. That is the coach's job, to tell the player what to do in between points. He speaks German so he didn't even have to do it in English.

And even the one on match point. His coach deserted him - what is the point in speaking German if you can't remind your player to challenge on crucial points.

He should have challenged the 9-10 serve. I would have.

Come on, Duda! You are too old for moral victories! You aren't Miwa or Anette...

From game 2, other than missing the long pushes, Duda has shown that this match is very winnable.

Duda has a huge problem controlling certain kinds of lighter backspin balls. He doesn't seem to read the float ball well.

However one may feel about Dima, he is probably the best non-CNT player to play against to prepare you for the power of a CNT player.
