Beside losing to Odo at the selection trial for ATTC 2024 (and with that WTTC 2025), Hashimoto has Miki House to blame for turning JTTA into a lame duck. What goes around comes around.

I took a look at the original video. The English title is mostly accurate. 反手拉球教学 #乒乓球教学 https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1cpZMYVEov What coach 陈康宁/Chen Kangning is saying is that the boy is consciously doing the "wrist snap". Rather, he should just focus on leading with the back of the hand...

The 2% figure is worked out from the USATT rating chart that is likely made up. Other than TTD members, MyTT members have also worked out the probability of win/loss. The 24% figure for Elo rating is derived "using the calculus of statistical probability theory" as Elo stated in his book "The...

David Marcus wrote in 2000 that world class players would be around the 3000 level. https://www.ratingscentral.com/Doc/NewTTRS.pdf

Well, Togami admitted Uda performed better on the world stage. As usual, feel free to convince him.

First international title and WTT title for her, after that continental title.

MS F Wen Ruibo 2-4 Duda (9, -6, 5, -11, -6, -0) I wonder if Alexis could win here?

YJN (1985/5/11): Ahem, 40 years, 1 month and 4 days old...

WS SF YJN 3-1 SXY (7, -2, 7, 10) WYD II in the making. It's abundantly clear by now that SXY has serious trouble handling FH-oriented shortpips players with good serves or FH-oriented inverted players (0W2L Ito, 0W3L Hayata). Not to mention her close losses to BH-oriented inverted players...

WS QF Odo 2-3 YJN (9, 4, -8, -7, -9) Odo got lobbed down on the last point. FNT women are having a field "week".

WS R16 Fan Shuhan 3-2 Omoda (-7, -5, 3, 8, 7) Fan Shuhan struggled with Omoda's hook serve until G3 where she started returning with the "good contact" push to Omoda's FH or middle and Omoda started missing a lot of those FH 3rd ball and never adjusted. Such as the ones at 1:0 and 3:6 of G3...

MS R16 Tanaka 3-0 Matsushima (9, 7, 3) Tanaka has a way with lefties. Still no love for him. Another point of reference, Matsushima warned of non-vertical toss, serving at 1:2 of G2. Also yellow-carded for deliberately kicking the incoming ball from the assistant ump, serving at 6:9 of G2...

MS R16 Karlsson 2-3 Duda (9, -8, -9, 10, -5) G4 610, 1210 G5 31, 33, 43, 48, 58, 511 slight edge for Duda's lob and Karlsson threw his racket at the floor after his fish went long... LOL

JTTA to consider holding XT matches in T.League sometime before LA28. 卓球　Ｔリーグで混合団体戦を実施検討へ「五輪の前に機会を与えたい」…２８年ロス五輪で種目変更に伴い https://hochi.news/articles/20250607-OHT1T51220.html?page=1

WCQ's latest interview with CCTV after winning MS of WTTC 2025 made the news. Admitting for the first time it was due to his broken racket (going back on his word and here), he thought about retiring after crashing out in R32 at Paris 2024. His loss to Benyamin Faraji was also due to the ball...

Given Butterfly has admitted tacky rubber is difficult to develop and mass produce, the same should also apply to ESN.
