where are these bets taken? I need to get in on the action.

It took me a long time to appreciate the obsession with footwork. I am still of the opinion that most players can play decently well without it, and that it is at the advanced levels that footwork issues truly show up. I know someone who believes the reason I can get away with this is that I...

In the end, i would say that just let the results determine what you play best with. Even with Dignics 80, my short pushing is noticeably worse and I tend to drive more no spin balls long. I also struggle to out spin some lower rated players who would just back off my ball when I used stickier...

Give Wang Liqin the plastic ball and no speed glue and we can discuss.

Lightworks is not very simple but you can use youtube to learn it and it can be used to create what you want for free.

I clearly spoke too soon.

Zhu Chengzhu looks well prepared to loop that chop today. She seems to have worked to close out this gap in her game.

In a match, you rarely get the same serve over and over again every 5 seconds or so. To simulate match practice, after doing some block drills like practicing against a specific serve, you have to have your server mix up spins and location so you can practice skills closer to what would happen...

I don't think it was that simple, how often do you see WCQ loop backspin pushes into the net, even when he plays badly? Give his opponent some credit.

Of course, we were all over it in the youtube chat. And that was what @AndySmith was talking about in his post-match post.

Felix and Xiang played a tremendous match in the French league so this will be a good match for Xiang - an opponent he knows and who he has competed well with. The question is whether Xiang has made the same growth Felix has - it isn't that obvious if he has.

So if you have ever analyzed the Tenergy pips configurations, you will know that while they are all spinny rubbers, the arc of 05 is higher than 80 which is higher than 64, so this makes 05 spinnier than 80 and 64. It makes 80 faster than 05. Now in the case of Tenergy, 05 and 80 felt much...

I think you are giving your pet narrative too much credit and Oh Kwanghun too little. Injury might have played a role, and she was still 2-0, 7-3 up before losing.

Yes, memory is not always the best analyzer of the match. But usually how you think about what made you competitive influences how you view the whole game. It is maybe when he rewatches the match he might see what you saw but even then, his story is more likely the one that disturbed Wang as...

I love the way he described using the Gauzy approach to Xu Xin 100% - just spin every ball heavy and hope he has problems with it.

The timeout was correct regardless. The most important time to use a timeout is when you think your concentration is drifting, sometimes because you are tired or tense. That he didn't win the point is not the best way to judge it, and having used it, he could now forget about it and focus on...

Anders Lind gets it done in amazing classical fashion. Wow.

D80 is faster and much more direct and is much easier to use if you have an allround backhand, while D09c is better if you always spin the backhand, including with power on the opening, though I would argue that D80 is easier to get a quality shot with for 90% of people. If you are looking to...

Here's my most recent session getting coached on Sunday. Still a lot of work to be done but I finally managed to hit a shorter forehand early in front of my body., which is a technique I will need to improve my backhand to forehand transition in quicker rallies.
