thats the face of DING Ning if HAYATA was allowed to play at WTTC 2019 lol joking... CNT players are tough

There is right now on Japanese TV a program running about MIZUTANI Apparently he's got some vision problems for more than 1 year. He can't see the ball after the opponent hits it. It reappears only after it passes the net !

yes its stolen from BUTTERFLY https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLvjUxcGdF8P81eXM0nDRXcENP5y4BB2m1

sorry i should read again before posting. Thanks mate

HAYATA is at least on par with TOP10 non-Chinese players except ITO, thats ISHIKAWA HIRANO and CHENG. And she won also LIU Shiwen in Portugal. Unfortunately because WTTC gets players lots of ranking points, its nearly mathematically impossible for her to get in front of ISHIKAWA HIRANO (ITO)...

We had a small tournament today in our borough, whose winner of each category would qualify to be our representative for all-Tokyo competitions. We were only 8 in our age category, first divided in 2 groups of 4. My first opponent is my teammate, which i win more than 90% of the time 3-0 or...

she didn't beat them, she crushed them. 4-1 was the punishment, except for Szocs who got a special 4-0 don't know if the staff is sick, but I'm totally sick

actually there still could be a Deus ex Machina if Sato has a (diplomatic) injury or illness, I think it is still time for JNT to be allowed to call another player. Wouldn't that be convenient ? Not very likely, but in Japan, group always come first. so if the staff is 100% convinced this is...

ok i had a tournament today, and i have to include a type of player the short guy penholder playing with SP and serving long flat serves without throwing the ball... He aced me several times and surprised me with some special PH sidespin and placement. I even totally lost my nerves, and...

enjoyed the video a lot @zeio [even i didn't need the subs, but they make it more fun LOL]

generally speaking, i'm more effective against weaker players, and less effective against better players, whatever their style LOL I feel I am rather good in rallies, and my weakness relative to my overall level is my own serve game, although i can of course be struggling on receives as well...

oh yes a bear hug with Kasumi that would be really nice :-)

2 days before an important (local) tournament for us here in Japan this Sunday. the prize is that the winners (for each age category) become representatives (for this season) of our borough for all Tokyo-wide events. I think there are quite a few better players than me, but hey, I have an...

by the way, the ASIAN CUP will be held in YOKOHAMA in the first week of April I will be going there on Saturday April 6th Tickets are quite cheap, the best seats go for 4,000 yens and are still available. Tickets for T-League were more than 3x more expensive for the best seats and were all sold...

I googled in Japanese and couldn't find any link to ticket sales I think the tickets are not for sale yet The competition will be held in Sapporo (Hokkaido island) Jun12-16 Hokkaido is the northern island of Japan, its far from Tokyo. There are some international flights directly to Sapporo...

dead balls are actually easy to play, but the main reason for missing that, is that - well they're dead - so the timing is different, and you have to adapt your footwork. Rushing - or taking the ball too late when its low and you're standing a bit too far from the table, is going to cost you the...

extra TIP: if you are visiting from abroad, you can still enter some local tournaments info (all in Japanese) can be found in nocha.jp and also on P4match.com tournaments in P4match are of lower level but there is no elimination. Its chess-like round-robin so everybody plays the same number of...
