Vinay...

Maybe some kind of nickname or alias...

Why the name difference lol?

Well he did say it wa rarer amongst the men. But the truth is that Qiu admitted juat about everything we needed for my definition of clone. All you need is a high level player to study how another high level player plays and simulate them in practice. Most countries don't have the resources...

It worked, as amazing as it sounds - Vivarelli split with two long serves!

You can open a thread, just like anyone else can. I suspect pongfugrasshopper or zeio or driversbeat will open one at some point.

I believe his name is Tasei - probably not fired so much as replaced, I wouldn't be surprised if he retains a place on the staff if he wants to work with certain players and continues to do so.

No hating on zeio for the facts he provides, but there is a clear distinction between facts and opinions. IT's unfortunate that Hayata disappointed you as well, but you could have put those hopes on just about anyone in the Japanese team and you would still be disappointed. Even Harimoto is...

Xunyao Shi was very prominent in Houston, she was hitting the ball so much when I snuck into the training halls that I am sure she played a ton of matches and ended up on the medal podium... she couldn't just have been cloning Hirano surely... oh, she was really cloning Wang Yidi in preparation...

Not just fake news, but depersonalization of all of those involved, including future world champions. How dare you...

It is just his childish outrage being passed of as insight.

It's okay if you make up your own definition of a clone after I have provided mine and decide to take offense at your own definition. I would tell you to grow up but it won't make a difference. Go clone yourself.

It's not to assume, zeio posted a list of some clones of star opponents and it included Sun Yingsha and Wang Manyu. If you think zeio is a liar, take it up with him. There are aspects of the cloning system that are inoffensive. But if a player doesn't have a superstar trajectory, it can look...

Not at all, I don't share all that i know or see with noise makers. It really is that straightforward. When they go to the Olympics, you really think all those players are there for The entourage that travels with players at big tournaments is pretty large. Can you name some of the practice...

Not at all, iI am pointing out the level of stupidity in saying things like Qian Tianyi plays nothing like Hina Hayata, you do realize that Lin Gao Yuan has cloned Boll in practice. That said, sarcasm is not your strong point, grasshopper.

Sun Mingyang is much bigger than Mima Ito... she also uses Chinese rubber on forehand. Try again.

Emm.. Zhang Rui plays nothing like Mima Ito... no way she could be a Mima Ito clone... That's the logic of some here.... so there!

Felix? Qiu Dang?

You said Qian Tianyi was the only successful lefty and I pointed out Kuai Man. As for whether someone has to play exactly like someone to mimic them, I will leave you to your understanding of table tennis. In any case though, I don't need your righteousness, I need facts.

Most of the Japanese team use male practice partners. But sure, Hashimoto is probably the Ruwen Filus clone.
