  1. Nagasaki: "I've never liked table tennis that much to begin with..." (#1169)

    Ito says her current goal is not the Olympics, but the WTTC for the time being. She stresses that it doesn't matter how long she will play table tennis and wants to play until she is satisfied and for now her goal is to win a WTTC medal. When asked about her former goal of being WR1, she says...

  7. If you are the CNT boss, what would you do?

    WCQ played like crap throughout the Olympics. Some Weibo users posted the XD stats and SYS got most of the points whereas WCQ dropped the majority of points (see quote 1). Even a renowned reporter 李平康/Li Pingkang posted on Weibo criticizing how bad WCQ played throughout the XD event and if not...
  8. If you are the CNT boss, what would you do?

    Highly likely for WS, but not quite for MS. ML could've lost at London 2012 given his 0-4 loss to CCY in the group stage at World Cup 2012 just 2 months later (ML advanced to the main draw only because CCY lost 3-4 and not 0-4, 1-4, or 2-4 to Crisan afterwards, so likely on purpose). XX lost...

    FWIW, WCQ's current achievements show that LGL was right about him being "眼高手低/high expectations but low skills" in his debrief at the end of Day 2 of the selection trial for WTTC 2017. Can't find the highlight reel where he said it. 榜样!刘国梁借科龙鼓励小将:拿出野心抢班夺权 (Role model! Liu Guoliang encourages...
  10. How to minimize the time between second bounce and third bounce on the serve?

    Missed the second question. From my own experience, I try to make the first bounce to the middle of my end for all serves and mostly use the spin to vary the second bounce on the other end. Just that alone was enough to score me wins and close matches against former Div A players (top 120) and...

  12. If you are the CNT boss, what would you do?

    I have a hunch LA 2028 is gonna be legendary with all the geopolitics surrounding it. For reference, Atlanta 1996 signaled CNT's ascend to the throne (first Olympic MS gold) and Beijing 2008 the dawn of domination (first and only MS AND WS medal sweeps).

    That's up for debate. OTOH, WCQ at 26 while being 24 did match RSM's worse Olympic result at 18 and 26...
  14. If you are the CNT boss, what would you do?

    Asian Cup 2025: Quest completed. WTT CS Chongqing 2025: Quest completed. The rest of the world needs PRK here.
  15. How to minimize the time between second bounce and third bounce on the serve?

    No clue. It may have to do with how Harimoto tracks the ball. Like Ito, I don't "see" the ball and edge of the table beyond the toss when serving, long or short.
  16. How to minimize the time between second bounce and third bounce on the serve?

    Speaking from personal experience, it is way easier to keep the bounce tight by serving as close to the endline and table surface as possible.

    Doesn't matter who is stronger. Both have problems with lobs.
  20. WTT Champions Chongqing 2025 - 11-16 Mar 2025

    They are telling the truth. WCQ has had problems with lobs. Hao Shuai was dominant against Michael Maze at WTTC 2005 before the latter turned to lobbing. Similar issue for WH the round before (much less remembered and discussed). It was after those 2 losses that the CNT finally patched the...
