Jog for 15 minutes and maybe play a practice game where you bet $5 on who wins (handicap if the opponent is weaker). Then practice serves. Usually people practice serves when relaxed and this makes the practice imprecise. Also add stakes. Par Gerell for example doesn't leave practice unless...

I hope they keep this format, it was a great tournament.

I definitely think you could have won. IMO, your backhand and service receive need work. The receive, all I would say is use more sidespin and variation, too much straightforward pushing. Also let a couple of serves double bounce to test if the serve are really short, I think you took a few...

She is the Ftench national champion. Only a discovery if you just don't know about her. Kinda like Juan Liu of the USA.

Okay HK and Korea made it through. Now the TT world is back to normal.

Ian Marshall doesn't disappoint, confusing Lubomir Jancarik with Lubomir Pistej. https://www.ittf.com/2020/01/26/thrown-deep-end-ng-pak-nam-responds-hong-kong-china-rings-changes/

Lee Eunhye has to be one of tensest players I have ever seen at the professional level.

When Don Parker said that WCT had never lost to Wang Yang, then I understood 100% why they reorganized the team. I thought Slovakia would try to hide Valuch but I am not sure how that gets determined. Maybe they were pretty sure that with WCT in doubles, Wang would get a win. But losing the...

This happened to me once when I was at a club in Westchester. I was warming up at a tournament and someone walked into my backswing without alerting me. It is very annoying but also says something about the stiffness of the blade. Mine was a Stratus Powerwood. O don't think this kind of...

Come to think of it, it is probably a matchup problem because I think Lee has a strong backhand and Pesotska strength is her backhand.

So has Pucar. Like I said, it is not an easy match whether you think he should have won or not. It is like FZD losing to XX 11-8 in the 5th and then saying Fan played badly.

Yeah and while Pesotska is tough, the best player in Korea shouldn't be losing to her. Seriously. I don't think Suh is playing badly TBH - she is facing tough teams with the right experience to play her. Ukraine would have been another such team because they have two defenders so it would...

England didn't underperform, Croatia is an incredibly difficult team with low seeding because Gacina doesn't consistently play the tour.

All the last round losers play for the final spot.

That's going a bit far. They have a good draw to the final match at the Olympic Qualification.

They have a good draw to the last round though. Ukraine has good but beatable players and the winner of Spain and Belarus isn't unbeatable. They have to win one match that will be tough but the tougher teams are in the other half IMP.

You will be surprised. The longer this goes on, the more dudu Korea is in.

For some reason, everyone knows this except the coach who designed the selection process and took risks with the selection process instead of waiting for a new Olympic cycle to implement the changes.

I got a sheet of T05H for $60. I have never felt such a pure sensation of power when using any rubber. Now I don't feel so bad when good players blast the ball past me. I have to get a red sheet for my backhand and see how that works

And in the other half of the draw. Nice catch! They had better get no other major upsets. If a Romania or a Hong Kong fell into the 9th place event, it would cause major issues. India is tough enough and Ukraine is no joke either.
