Nothing wrong with ditching your teammates.

Oh, you just remind me Ito also said the following. https://www.tabletennisdaily.com/forum/topics/jtta-selection-system-to-be-revamped-for-paris-2024.24977/post-442675

"It was the best tournament I've ever had." "I am amazing after all." "It feels so good to win a medal after beating a CNT player." To think these would come out of Ito's mouth after saying "it's meaningless unless you're the winner" back at WTTC 2021. 苦難を乗り越えた伊藤美誠...

With 140 pts from China Smash 2024 expiring in Oct that could fling her out of top 50, Winter will need another strong performance in the second half of the year.

LGY and SXY won the selection trial. The curse of winning WTT Champions in Europe, manifesting as poor win rate the next year. In case you didn't know, DHK's focus was on the XD. She mulled retirement at the end of 2023 over her golfer's elbow and dystonia and even suggested to the team that...

You see, the same argument (that beginners should use something slower) was made when Mark V and Sriver were still considered the top grippy rubbers and they had already been on the market for decades at that point. This was the case a year or two before Bryce was released in 1997.

In his own words, not good. Next thing to fix is 0 losses in team event.

The intensity was way worse up until WTTC 2017 when doubles were also Bo7. I even made a post over at HKTTF about how WCT should've opted for 2 events instead of 3 and could've run deeper (MS QF with one leg in bandage 1-4 LSS, MD QF 3-2 -> 3-4 FZD/XX and XD bronze 1-3 -> 3-4 9:11 CCA/CIC).

Because that was the consensus at the club I play. Sriver FX was the go-to rubber for BH in late 2000 before Tenergy was released in 4/2008. But as soon as the price hike hit in late 2008 (first due to a strong yen before the no out-of-region policy in 2010) and the first wave of porous ESN...

I think the only time that push got a point was in G1 (which was to WCQ's middle), specifically on the 2nd point (6:7) when the momentum started swinging back to Calderano. However, WCQ pinned him down to the short FH 4 out of 5 points from 7:10. It stuck in the back of his mind and Calderano...

This goes back to my first post - price-performance ratio. The drop-off in performance is related to the price. The first wave of porous ESN rubbers released in late 2009-2010 such as Baracuda/Acuda S1/S2/S3, Hexer/Hexer+, Genius Optimus/Optimus+ etc. lasted way longer than the previous...

2, not 3.

Maybe true for Europe, but not for East Asia. ESN pricing was very competitive in East Asia before 2022. There are some decent Chinese grippy rubbers for like 1/5 or even less the price of Tenergy.

It really comes down to the price rather than performance. Mark V and Sriver still cost like more than half of Tenergy (p.s. Dignics as well) today and there is just no way I would waste my money on them anymore.

Hirano passed out from hyperventilation (which she touched on in the interview 4 days later) after her 2nd round exit and was hospitalized. She will take a leave from the national team training camp and withdraw from some international competitions in Europe, but will probably take part in the...

CNT made sure this time WCQ didn't let the same mistake happen again. 5 weeks might be a little short but enjoyable nonetheless. WTTC 2025 MS F Calderano (3) 1-4 (2) (-10, -3, 4, -2, -7)
