I have always felt you went too far embedding. Just posting the links is sufficient.

Maybe but not always. And the rule that enables those offenders is the one being violated. The Samsonov pendulum shows you can change your orientation if you really want to. But if people do not want to serve beside or in front of their bodies, you can't eliminate hidden serves.

She lost to Jeremy Hazin of Canada recently. The level.of the player matters and men are stronger then women. Women can compete sate in some cases with close to the table blocking and hitting but the strength and speed disparity can show up.

They have the same coach and try to do the same things. Wang Manyu just does them with more power.

There was a serve Ma Long did in the 6th game with a short Toss with the ball in full view throughout the serve. My point is that the players are aware of this issue. No one just wants to change. We just accept it as a matter of course.

I didn't count the crowd as a matchup. The disparity in crowd support was ridiculous.

The problem is that everyone plays injured. I mean, ZJK when he tried to make his comeback was injured and he still got to a World Tour finals in Japan (and lost deuce in the 7th to Harimoto). Boll is almost always injured - it is a running joke amongst some people that what would Boll be if...

Calling this one for Liang. Ma doesn't seem to have any consistent advantages in the matchups.

This plastic ball makes the step around forehand look stupid when you don't recover.

You are tautologically correct but your argument lacks nuance. I think you underestimate the relationships that are formed when people hang around together for many years. Of course the CNT thinks ML will rise to the occasion, but that is what "owing him" means - he has never disappointed at...

So the rules changed in 2016, where they were allowed to remove both Fan and Xu Xin to allow Zhang Jike? I think ultimately, China sent the Champs that they wanted to send. They subbed Guo Yan with Ding Ning back then as well.

You don't have that flexibility in the Olympics today if ever.

Okay. Since you still seem to misunderstand (or block your ears a d eyes to) the training investment in world tours vs WTTC, the latter they have special camps and training periods to avoid the very thing XX did by losing to Gauzy, I give up. No point in discussing this forever if these are...

Because of two players called Ma Long and Fan Zhendong?

Sometimes, I read things like what you wrote and wonder if people understand what Ma Long means to Chinese table tennis. Unless either Ma Long or Fan Zhendong get seriously incapacitated, Xu Xin is not playing singles. I don't know why you think the World Cup is a major - it barely is in the...

Curious why you think XX has any hope for Olympics singles...

The asterisk has been put out there. Good strategic move by CNT.

Harimoto has improved a lot. It is now a matter of time.

Calderano is an abuser. You are the one naive enough to think these things haven't been debated for years. People don't want to change. On most Jeoung Youngsik serves you can see the difference. The pros all tend to abuse the rule until they are forced to change. Not all but most. Timo...

Xiao Zhan will not be denied...
