In 2016 ZJK played against an injured Samsonov iirc. There was a real chance And Japan pair won G1 in the team event. They were close to being 2-1 up in doubles. If they won I believe Mizutani could have won ZJK in singles

Hmmm I am not so negative Because Chen Meng is past her prime now. She seems to be dealing with injuries too. Hayata was close in Nagoya. Wang Manyu also seems to be dealing with injuries with her level of play being highly variable IMO Japan has more chances than you realize

As a fan, I shall not forget all the joy that Mima brought to me with her never-seen-before awesome plays. Even if she can't win anymore, I will not spit on her. I don't know if she is finished. I think she went into a negative spiral, couldn't endure the pressure and do what it takes to keep...

big day tomorrow with 3 singles rounds on the same day ! IIRC they changed the programmation this year, they used always to put doubles everyday and only 2 singles rounds on the same day ? today was doubles only.

giving up going to All-Japan. i can't go tomorrow, Sunday i have a competition. Saturday ? but i doubt it

supply and demand. so many good players in China or Japan that are skilled enough to become coaches. and its a popular sport. The affluent don't all play golf but are ready to spend some money on TT. Actually my current coach is having a hard time and looking for a new job / stint in a foreign...

one of my coach, GC Foerster, ex-national Holland team player (and Bundesliga pro) once won a game against a (very) low level amateur 11-0 11-0 11-0. He said he was 120% focus, and it was a very tiring effort. Its so easy to miss one ball, or there were a few chances for the other player, and a...

what impressed me most was even when Jorgic was seemingly off-balance just with the wrist he was able to produce more a FH slap than a block with extremely good placement. he did that so many times, it wasn't luck and the produced ball was perhaps even more difficult than a regular FH. so many...

Darko is a cyborg

Truls is like Harlem Globe Trotters playing TT

I had my first tournament yesterday with my new faster racket (ZJK T5000 + Dignics). It was a group of 15 players with round robin format (5 rounds) and no elimination. in terms of (unofficial) rankings i was seeded 13th out of 15th it was the big rollercoaster for me. between matches. also...

He is just a troll . Putting him in the ignore list

From 6-9 in G6, Timo went Hyper-bollic

yes what a comeback from Harimoto. the turning point an edge from Timo which followed a BH on the side of the table, point for Harimoto in the previous point. Harimoto totally collapsed mentally. and the WTT stream also did collapse. what a shit Timo v Tomo. I beat O

national champs next week in Tokyo i think i will be going to watch a little bit

I agree that playing against unfamiliar opponents such like LP choppers or LP pushers would be the most difficult challenge with this racket. i haven't done that yet. i tried a bit short game with the coach yday, and it wasn't bad. but i agree that it feels like chiquita (or reverse-chiquita)...

I tried then bought a new PREMIUM racket on Amazon, a Butterfly Zhang Jike T-5000 with 2 sheets of Dignics max (05 FH , 80 BH). Ive been playing 4 sessions already with it its an absolute cheat, and ridiculous the amount of power and spin i have in hand compared to my previous setup [Tibhar MK...

The player with LP is Kojima currently “the strongest LP player in Japan” He qualified quite a few times for the national champs even though he doesn’t go deep in the tournament. He’s got his own YT channel but he’s been featured in other popular channels. There is even a video of a match with...

It should be clear which side spin it is / how the trajectory will curve. It will be more difficult to tell if it’s also topspin / under spin or just pure side spin Try to watch the wrist, the racquet angle at impact and angle, and the bounce …and also for meta hints: is it always under spin...

Well, there is a video from Kenta Matsudaira who explains that when you step to play to your short FH or on the side of the table it is important to move the LEFT leg first. It gives more stability and enables to get closer to the ball. It’s a good habit to take and you can easily work it with...
