    nobody cared to play the game. it's Kyoka IDESAWA, the team junior world champ playing on the table behind. I spoke to her before her matches and told her I was her fan and she smiled politely. but I didn't impress her (or anyone) much with my TT skills afterwards, lol...

    So if I dare say here is what I see: (+) you are always well balanced so there is a lot of control in your game. I don’t often see you lose your balance or play a ball without being solidly in position (++) serve looks low, not slow , and rather spinny. I never saw your opponents attack it...
