  1. Counterloop practice

    For all the flack you have gotten, the drill is decent. Try to shorten the stroke, you are backswinging with your arm, not your upper body. Play from the elbow not the shoulder - good luck.

    Everyone is having disputes over what words mean in English, his post validates everything I wrote and he says everyone is wrong. Let's just move on, please, someone is always wrong on the internet these days and when corrected, they always think they are right. This is a great tournament.

    Dima is the one player I trust to take this to game 5.
  5. WTT Champions Frankfurt 2024

    An amazing match, probably the best Women's match of the event so far.

    LYJ is a lefty, it makes a bigger difference for him than for other players. Even Wang often does the same.

    I apologize to TTD for getting involved in any of this. I am out.

    These kinds of arguments are unfortunate. There were multiple events that the team got together for as preparation for the 2024 Olympics. After all. He had to get to be Alexis doubles partner and Pavade's XD partner. All the pros i have ever discussed TT with tell me that hitting with a...

    The French national team trained together for Olympic preparation

    Feel free to define career as reasonably as you want, you will realize that you are just arguing for arguing sake. LYJ is 22 i believe but has been a profession for at least 6 years, maybe even more. The way TT works, many juniors are on a professional path when they are already playing for...

    He explained what he meant in full detail. Lots of players have struggled to beat the Chinese in close matches and in that regard, Gauzy is not unique. I suspect if he didn't train with the Lebruns, he would struggle more against them like everyone else.

    1. Because the last 2-3 years isn't much of his career, especially for someone who was a notable junior. And our arguments didn't rest on the entirety of his career, our arguments were trying to understand how one got to the idea that much of his career was the last few years. So what we...

    You are quite right that the recent trend shouldn't qualify as much. Unless we want to start redefining words.

    So Gauzy is 29 or so, maybe 30. He was a WJTTC top prospect in 2011 . He was at the top of Europe un 2016/2017. How do you define much of his career?

    I watched many of those matches. Honestly, Gauzy had the same experience many players had playing the Chinese.Koki Niwa, Lee Sang Su. The old elo system made it easier to rank and measure strength. Gauzy is nit a specially tragic figure in the era of Chinese domination. That the Lebruns have...

    Let's apply your logic to other top European players like Anton Kallberg or Qiu Dang or Darko Jorgic or Anders Lind. If Gauzy was #1 or #2 in France, why would he be very different from them? What about Kiril? Again other than a few spectacular losses in recent months, what makes Gauzy's...

    At a certain point, people will believe whatever they want to believe even when they have no evidence to explain why they believe it.
  18. WTT Champions Frankfurt 2024

    I haven't read the part of the thread where you reviewed most of Gauzy's career. Like I said, Gauzy was a junior when I started playing TT seriously so I am familiar with most of his career, including watching marches when he played the WJTTC. So I am still waiting to understand their matches...

    Without a list of matches, this discussion is pretty much blowing hot air repeatedly. It is weird how the people who disagree are listing matches and the people who agree just keep relying on pushing their narrative without any obligation to substantiate it with some match results.
