Your self control will take you far.

This is a bit exaggerated but there is a point he is trying to make. The game has mental components as well as physical components and some of the instincts are harder to get to a high level the older you start. That said, it doesn't matter that much if you can't return a pro serve unless you...

Loelee is 2300 level.college graduate age person and is known in USATT circles. About to get betrothed to a lifetime partner as well. Not quite apples and oranges.

Sometimes, something about the side of the table (not necessarily physical) makes a difference. Maybe being able to see her coach

Loop relatively soft but low and forward. The forward spin on the low balls makes them spinnier and faster. It is looping upwards that makes the ball spinny but slow.

And Dima. Don't forget Dima.

Prime Anton Kallberg (27) struggles to beat past his prime Maharu Yoshimura (31)...

Past her prime Zhu Yuling (30) beats a Hirano(24) whose status is very unclear - she should be in her prime by age but is past her prime by achievements...

Yeah. Something must have been really wrong vs the display she had in her CIC match. I wouldn't be surprised if she had a death in the family given how she played...

Barely still in his prime Jang Woojin battling spring chicken Chen Yuanyu... Not sure how Lily pulled off that one... Lee looked very different from her last match....

One of my late coaches Enoch Green, who was.a 2300 chopper from Philly, used to play around with this again lot and did it. Enabled him to backhand topspin with long pips on the other side for chopping. He practiced it so much I am sure there has to be video of him doing it. He used it in...

You can't really draw the #32 - seeds are only up to 16, and Groth at 16 even lost to unseeded An Jaehyun - I hear you but Grand Smash draws are very tough by round of 32, and in prelims, you may get lucky with an occasional Oceania or American matchup but even those are no longer as easy as...

He is a lower seed, he is supposed to get at most one easy round, you make it sound like he is supposed to be playing as the #1 seed.

It's just a quality and speed of play thing. Happens at all levels of TT. You would hope that she can develop more weapons but without being increasingly challenged and adapting, at a certain level you are who you are and adaptation might not help that much. And weirdly enough, there is no...

What list are you looking at? This is the list you posted. If Nikhil beat Dima, you know something I don't.

Those are all legit 2800+ players.

No, seriously, MLTT is for over the hill players. These guys are 2800 and young, they should be going to more serious leagues like CSL, Jia A, T-League, Bundesliga, Polish League etc. They must be over the hill otherwise or looking to be over the hill...

Some players will never beat Dima even in their best form.

Okay. It is good they are coming to MLTT then. IT will send them over the hill.
