Go convince Mizutani. In case you weren't aware, Mizutani actually got into an argument with Togami in one episode of Takkyu Japan reviewing his MD F at WTTC 2025. Togami's under-performance at WTTC 2026 was the final straw.

Added Batra's follow-up post. She argues that there are 9 members on the Selection Committee when there should not be more than 7 members as per the Constitution.

Chitale's loss to Akasheva is alarming, given Kazakhstan is in Asia and will host WTTC 2027.

Yes, for future reference since we will keep running into this.
Be sure to point the players to that post if you run into them so that they are aware the friction range may not necessarily be the culprit.

I tend to lean toward that theory. For the most part, shortpips are by design to facilitate speed rather than spin unlike inverted. This muffled feeling of inverted rubber is likely coming from the pips eating into the sponge, increasing contact area and contact time among ball, topsheet and...
It shows once again that the U in UTTP is for useless when the association still has the final say even for WTT events, as defined by ITTF!
