HIRANO put on a good fight in G1 against WANG Yidi. She was up 10-8 but lost the BH rallies at the end, and lost 11-13 this game. You don't have second chances against top Chinese Players 0-3. after disappointing results from fellow Japanese players, UDA managed to edge BOLL 3-2 in the...

I agree with you, maybe he's getting too much pressure from his parents ? didn't Serena Williams moved away from her father ?

I think its too early to tell. i can feel definitely Harimoto has gained a lot more power on his FH thanks to his body change. But his footwork is a bit slower for sure, and that hasn't ever been his biggest strength. If he can work on that, he'll get very good results again I think. His mental...

Kanak JHA played very well but what a disaster again for Harimoto, especially in Game 4 which was a total disaster...

1st round match we have CHEN Meng v Hitomi SATO and the other hand, matches like Hana MATELOVA - LI YuJhun WTF ????

the draw doesn't make any sense

@NextLevel NewsPost Seven is a famous tabloid in Japan. But actually those tabloid are usually doing serious investigation journalism, they have uncovered many political scandals historically for example. So not totally comparable to The Sun or the Daily Mail, even they have a lot of nudie pics...

the rules used to award points to the Paris race are quite curious... whoever did that doesn't have a math degree.

Miyazaki is a Junior World Champion, she beated some Chinese on her way to gold. Hayata is on paper the Asia champ (no Chinese were there). Her record v Chinese players is more like 1-4 to 2-4 on average compared with 0-4 to 1-4 for Ishikawa... but I agree its a long way to winning... Another...

in Japan, scandals regarding Ai-chan's infidelity and subsequent divorce, and Mizutani's adventures at the hostesses club were on prime time TV... i thought TTD had some kind of scoop there...

oh when i saw the title of that thread I was expecting some news about them getting engaged or married !!!

yes the overall level in Japan is very high, so many good players especially in Women's side. Ando and Shibata managed to do well in these selection tournaments in 2021. thanks to that Ando got medals in the Asian Champs, and played the Women's Team final in that event to get gold !!! (China...

to be honest,. i'm not very convinced about Hayata in this tournament. ok she won , made great comebacks, but i expected from her total dominance. so many mistakes and unforced errors. Thats very far from the level required to beat the Chinese. I'm quite disappointed with her. Nagasaki ? well...

thats why JTTA makes those tournaments. They are angry with the WTT reform @Dream2k Kenta has retired from international competition a while ago. He is only still playing in domestic tournament (T-League with TT Saitama, National championships 2nd place this year). btw Mizutani has officially...

Hina beated Kasumi 4-3 9 in the decider after a thriller match all the olympic team is down as Hirano lost 2-4 to Kihara Mens semis tomorrow Harimoto - Yokotani Niwa - Oikawa Togami was kicked out by Shinohara in R2 3-4. Shinohara beated Morizono in R1 but found Harimoto stronger in QF Maharu...

I think Truls physical condition dropped a lot after winning game 4. Jorgic finished very strong physically. Towards the end of G6, Truls recovered a bit, but that wasn't enough as the whole momentum already had changed.

Darko happy with that net at 10-10 in Game6...

Truls played superbly, Timo is not in full form, but i don't think anyone could have done anything against him playing like this apart from Fan Zhendong... Truls was in the zone the whole match, he's played superbly against Lebesson, and proved mental strength against Karlsson, down 3-7 in the...

definitely closer to 2300-2400 than 1500-1600 . They must be both playing with LP or anti ? and a slow blade ?

that was digging an old thread !
