Swallowing one's pride is hard for those who think they know it all, I find that these types are the ones who always get stuck in their table tennis progress, so checks out

Convenient cop out while you furiously source-check Gwen about the Nadal-Federer head to head.

Looks like Gwen or ChatGPT failed him just as hard as it did when it told him that a 2000 USATT player has a 5-10% chance of beating a 2400 USATT player in a match. Nadal - Federer head to head prior to 2008: 8-6 in favor of Nadal (dominant winning record for Federer, according to...

Just like Ma Long had separated himself head and shoulders as the leader of the CNT by 2010-2011!

You sure post a lot of threads reviewing and asking for information about the performance of various rubbers and blades, for someone who is just doing it purely for fun and not trying to make conclusions about the performance of those equipment. All these stories of beating or nearly beating...

I don't think any of us did haha. And maybe I am giving too much credit if there is some history of TBH Harimoto hating that I'm unaware of, but it seems like he just genuinely is unable to comprehend table tennis or understand the basics of competitive matchplay. Maybe this shouldn't be a...

I mostly agree, and while a lot depends on your definition of suboptimal technique or style, the plastic ball has created a more narrow definition of what "proper" technique is. And the work required or adaptation needed to make "suboptimal" styles and technique work at a higher amateur level is...

Because I don't need input from people like you when I get it from top coaches and players:ROFLMAO: You're welcome for the advice I gave you by the way. You probably won't take it, but I look forward to the next video of your useless counterlooping drill which you're convinced will get you to 2100.

LOL

Also @TensorBackhand - any response to this?

You can't read so I'll say it as simply as I can in the chance that you're actually trying to understand: Harimoto's strategy adjustment caused him to be better on that day No strategy in table tennis is "sustainable" because it is a game of constant adjustments especially match to match WCQ...

Congratulations you just got the point that people have been trying to make to you for like 5+ pages now lol. There is no 100% objective way of determining many things in life that's why you have coaches, analysts, video review, expert opinion etc. There's certainly no objective way to...

We have all heard your opinion and you are entitled to it. But you are twisting other people's opinions instead of actually trying to discuss them, so that you can just rigidly stick to your own opinion without trying to see any deeper than "he won this time but he won't win next time".

Again absolutely nobody is claiming that Harimoto's adjustments from this match are a predictor or guarantee of future success against WCQ. In fact you're the only one screaming at the clouds about that. Others have clearly stated that WCQ will likely adjust and in fact WCQ probably will win...

Can you not read or are you just going to the extreme lengths of completely twisting others arguments to make it look like you won?

But he is only using it on one side while Togami, who has surpassed Harimoto, uses it on both sides and lost to Wang Chuqin so maybe he needs to go back to tension rubber in order to threaten the top Chinese. Maybe even a crabby style and neutral foot stance...

Nobody is saying that Harimoto will win the majority of his future matches against Wang Chuqin and you know that. Let's not throw stupid strawmen arguments out there. Let's go back to your initial comment that started this all From now until 2028, I will pay you for every match Hugo takes...

My estimation is based off of what I know to be a 1900 level in California. From what I saw in the clip with Victor there are major issues with your forehand technique and recovery that prevents you from being an 8/10 at any 1900 level, but unless you post more video against people your level...

When did ML separate himself? How old is Harimoto? The fact that you seem to think that being the clear best 16 year old in the world makes it a reasonable expectation that you'll be the next ML by age 22 (being the 3rd or 4th best player in the world by that age is a disappointment here) once...

He won't answer this publicly but he is only using it for the video.
