  1. ITTF WTTC Finals Doha 2025, 5/17-25

    Yes, along with ZQH, both of them give off the vibe of ZJK.

    Calderano: Do you have a World Cup gold to say that? ;)
  3. ITTF WTTC Finals Doha 2025, 5/17-25

    Calderano was forced to reveal that push near the end of G1 against LJK and that helped take down the first 2 games. LJK almost recovered from that. And 24 hours later? WCQ came prepared and the moment it failed to surprise him Calderano's fate was sealed. Hirano actually did it at ATTC...
  4. ITTF WTTC Finals Doha 2025, 5/17-25

    First lefty World Champion (specifically referring to WTTC) for China. For reference, XX is the first lefty World Cup holder for China (also considered World Champion in China).

    He's retired due to injury (foot?). Showed some promise in 2017 but then 2018...

    MD F LYJ/KCJ (6) 2-3 Togami/Shinozuka (2) (6, -5, 7, -6, -6) 9-dan for Togami and Shinozuka after this. https://www.tabletennisdaily.com/forum/topics/paris-olympic-games-2024.34358/post-472375
  7. ITTF WTTC Finals Doha 2025, 5/17-25

    I found some. Pre-match odds for Moregard vs WCQ were from 4.6 to 5.5. For Calderano vs WCQ, they are 2.66-2.75.
  8. ITTF WTTC Finals Doha 2025, 5/17-25

    What were the odds (preferably before the match started) for Moregard vs WCQ? p.s. For reference, pre-match odds for Moregard vs Calderano at Paris 2024 were from 1.65 to 1.85. Calderano vs WCQ at World Cup 2024 were from 3.2 to 3.65. A blog post on the odds of the top seeds after the draw was...
  9. ITTF WTTC Finals Doha 2025, 5/17-25

    See your bias here? Mizutani never said Hayata's WTTC medal was not a real medal, but that it only met the bare minimum, which is what I argued as well, to which Harimoto also concurred, and yet you have a problem with their comments. OTOH, Ito's comment is viewed through rose-colored glasses...

    It's equal for both sides. The coach and player on the other side are free to take advantage of that extra TO to work out something.
  11. ITTF WTTC Finals Doha 2025, 5/17-25

    In a showcase of CNT coaching level, after G6, Liu Zhiqiang told LJK how he played right and to keep it up, (Bobrow was too excited to shut up), to be active and stay calm during the rallies, and to loop to Calderano's FH-middle once he's off the table and then to his BH, and not just to his BH...
  12. ITTF WTTC Finals Doha 2025, 5/17-25

    Harimoto was bold as well in his early days (all the comments about beating CNT players from TWC 2018 to WTTC 2018 to WTTC 2019), but has gradually become more mature/humble through his lessons. Like it or not, Mizutani is set for life, "the first Olympic gold medalist of Japanese table tennis"...
  13. ITTF WTTC Finals Doha 2025, 5/17-25

    Still arguing with yourself. Ito said "she's the only current Olympic gold medalist of Japan" to get back at everyone after losing out on WS and rejected the idea of serving as the reserve player (same for Asian Games 2022, abandoning WT after missing out on WS) and Mizutani had to wipe her ass...
  14. ITTF WTTC Finals Doha 2025, 5/17-25

    In case you aren't aware, Harimoto didn't complain. He lost like a man and didn't act a loser like many players would. In the 5-part Butterfly interview after Paris 2024, Harimoto said he expected FZD to use the locker room after being down 0-2. Harimoto used one himself as well after 2-2...
  15. Harimoto: "It's presumptuous to call it a rivalry." (#1135)

    Togami admitted it came down to "the difference in those small skills", exactly the 小路球/small road balls/closed game in my analysis. OTOH, he's still hung up on the idea of surpassing Harimoto (very typical 下克上/gekokujo of Japanese traditional culture) while hoping everyone on the team to...
  16. Dignics and its Effect on Sales of Tenergy and Rozena

    Preliminary data for Q4 (1-3/2025) of FY2025 suggest sales of Spring Sponge X/Spring Sponge series have increased yet again.
  17. VICTAS/Matsushita Koji: "There's no need to hide the name ESN."

    Whatever the result between Calderano and WCQ in tomorrow's final, it should give Xiom and Victas a well-needed boost in sales. Things have not been going well for them the last several years...

    WTTC 2017 MS F FZD was down 1-3 against ML and made it back to 3-3, 9:7 before losing the next 3 and then FZD forced it to deuce before losing the next 2. Ma Long v Fan Zhendong | #WTTSmashback | 2017 World Championships [url unfurl=false]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iE5GrhrY_o8[/url]

    That's what Mizutani argued and remind me what you said about his comment? Stop using that as your argument only when it fits your narrative.
