And the ITTF/WTT Participation form, specifically: 1. WTT rules and regulations 1.1. You have read, understood, clarified any doubt you may have, and agree to be bound by the terms of the following rules and regulations of WTT (“WTT Rules and Regulations”): 1.1.1. WTT Series Handbook 1.1.2. WTT...

Players can be fined. They enter into a contract the moment they signed an ITTF/WTT Participation form, which is mandatory before entering or participating in any WTT Events. 2025 https://wttwebcmsprod.blob.core.windows.net/technicaldocuments/WTT%20Series%20&%20Feeder%20Handbook%202025.pdf...

Hmm, he was close to reaching top 50 all because of the changes (so blame it on ITTF as well), namely the points for Continental events, ahem, effectively DEI values (at the expense of meritocracy). Those are things he can put on his resume or pitch to his potential student customers after...

It will come down to the new selection system that the JTTA has yet to come up with for LA 2028, how much weight WTT events are given compared to ITTF events.

Had always done it with VOC glue only. Not sure about water-based glue. Spread the glue of your choice (a few layers depending on the glue) on the pips and the sponge, let them dry, put the sponge on the blade first just like how you would do with a typical rubber with sponge and cut off the...

Given the above, there is a distinction between playing bad due to poor form and playing bad due to an injury. In Hayata's case, her body has been telling her for a few years that Dumb Hayata is unsustainable. As she said in the RKB Manichi Hoso interview, the result is not what she was aiming...

The new WR system took effect in 1/2018 so he was more like 400-450. He was probably making peanuts before WTT so blaming it on them is, hmm...

Kihara has been playing like crap the whole season. The only match she won in the 1st stage of CTTSL 2024 was against WYD, who has an even worse season than her. Kihara's WS win rate is only 57.1% (versus Nagasaki at 75% and Harimoto at 91.7%). Her WD win rate with Harimoto is only 50%...

And that reinforces the fact that ZLC is not as popular as ALC. The latest data released by Butterfly indicates that ALC has gone up whereas ZLC has gone down, and that Super ALC is already more popular than Super ZLC.

Amultart is still available outside of Japan. https://www.tabletennisdaily.com/forum/topics/are-zlc-blades-even-popular.23999/post-322953

Bumped. Just wanted to see the count at year end. In the end, Aruna just played a few more events and he finally beat his own record set in 2019. Number of events for Aruna over the years: 2024 16 - 11 WTT Series (WTT Finals Men Doha officially moved from 2024 to 2023), 1 OG, 1 WTTC (3 W/O...

More like planned ahead of time. That Retirement Letter must be signed by the association. They wouldn't have let FZD and CM accumulate all those ZPPs otherwise, e.g. WCQ and SYS. https://www.ittf.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/ITTF-Table-Tennis-World-Ranking-Regulations-20241218-1.pdf p.s...

Getting your players on the same page doesn't mean controlling them, because the players and their affiliated teams have to get things done through the association. There is clearly a lack of communication among CTTTA and their players, and WTT. U for unprofessional. For future reference...

That quote was to answer AutomaticBackhand's question. OTOH, as stated at the start of the WTT response, it is a clarification to the FZD's and CM's Weibo entries that could mislead the readers, specifically "近日WTT颁布了不参赛就罚款的新规" (WTT recently published a new rule that fines will be imposed for...

Hayata on Paris 2024 and the future in her interview with RKB Mainichi Hoso, her hometown television station. She said the painkiller started to wear off in G5 and that she had to decide it in G6, otherwise she'd have lost if it dragged on to G7...
