@Der Echte hoping for a swift recovery for you @NL thank you for the comment fortunately i didn't take a video of the matches. I took only a video of the 1st match which I won easily, but played rather badly (at least in the 3rd). The fact that i didn't take a video is a sign of bad...

I had a mini round robin tournament today in another club today, 4 matches for everybody. Well, the TLDR is that I had better not go. Its my worst performance in many months, the kind I thought i could avoid now (that I'm supposed to play better). My first match against a younger guy, i'm up...

i agree with you about the pace of drills. I have good coaches. They instruct me correctly I believe.

@OSP your ordeal is not fun as well. TT in the US is not very popular and you're suffering from it. Regarding my personal situation, I train with coaches but my teammates mostly don't. I play with them in a different place. I know a lot of things I need to work on, and have already received...

yes Sakamato is going to somewhere too far for me. This is Tokyo, so there are quite a few other places to find coaching but it sucks for sure.

So today, i went to my TT school (UPTY) to have my private coaching lesson with coach Sakamoto. When I arrive there, first big shock. There is a sign at the entrance saying that the school will close at the end of the month ! There was no announcement on their website. Sakamoto explained me he...

if you have the opportunity, take 1:1 (paying) lessons with the coach

we have no rating system in Japan at our amateur level, so no risk of sandbagging..

can u show us some footage Marta ?

congrats brokenball. Fantastic to hear

If you have time and money you can hire a coach. Once he gets paid he has to do his job.

Chinese man under 10s !

How can she represent Austria ??? Has she any Austrian ascent ? Has she been living in Austria at all ???

Ishikawa wins the consolation match (3-4) against (an aging) FENG Tianwei 4-1 She wanted this game more than FTW after losing 0-4 in group stage. It was very tight in the 3rd and 4th (15-17 then 17-15) (very FAR) behind the CNT, and besides perhaps ITO and HAYATA, ISHIKAWA proves again she is...

The article mentions that in 12 years, and a dozen matches, Niwa has won only once against MA Long (in a minor competition, I think it was the Olympic trial which is more like a friendly game)... For these guys its difficult to enter the court and convince themselves they have a chance to win...

@zeio funny as usual for Ishikawa I feel for her. She lost 1-11 in the 1st game. She wasn't even playing bad. Its just CM was stronger and winning all the rallies. Add a few cheap points due to mistakes and thats quick. Thanks to some vocal support (including mine :-) she found some energy to...

Once again, CNT largely defeated the JNT. I am sad to see that the public showed little enthusiasm to support their players. Chinese fans were making more noise. I was about the only one to shout for the JNT players and I’m not even Japanese... Only Harimoto had a little chance against FZD...

The second point of the match Ishikawa Chen was incredible and won by the Chinese Chen was like : You can try as hard as you can I’ll get everything back. Kasumi nodded and already gave up 1-11 and it’s not going to last long

Harimoto makes a rare receive error on the short serve to his FH . Too much backspin . 9-11 so down 1-3 it’s mission impossible now
