  1. Swedish Open 2018

    superb victory of SHIBATA Saki vs ZHANG Rui SHIBATA is the rising player among the Japanese. I think she is much more aggressive than most of hear colleagues, and she is absolutely fierce and fearless. I'm really impressed and want to see more of her playing against the top Chinese players.
  2. T League - Japan's New TT league

    just checked the schedule of one random team (TT Saitama) https://tleague.jp/team/tt-saitama/match/ and if i count well, there are 21 matchs so they are playing each other 3 teams 7 times. thats a bit strange, an odd number, not the same number of home and away games ? or perhaps YES because...
  3. TableTennisDaily's Dan vs TableTennisDaily's Tom!

    arffff nice game Dan. very entertaining to watch. I think you can get him, but you were a bit too shy, you didn't step around often enough IMO, when you did, you most often won the point. When you wait too much in BH diagonal rallies he played to your wide FH and scored many winners. Generally...

    Yui HAMAMOTO is a model and despite not being an S or AAA player in the T-league, she's always in front of all photos...with a manga-style haircut

  6. Swedish Open 2018

    yes its better to see more Chinese players. Even if they lose, it will also give more occasion for their opponents to test themselves and challenge those guys

  10. T League - Japan's New TT league

  11. T League - Japan's New TT league

    I don’t understand this league. Only 4 teams, how many times are they going to play against each other ? It’s gonna get boring !!
  12. T League - Japan's New TT league

    Saitama TT is quite strong as well with Jeong Youngsik Wong Chuting et Yoshimura The other two teams seem at a lower level, still there is Niwa Lee Sangsu Ueda and Yoshida in those teams... not bad !!
  13. T League - Japan's New TT league

    On their site each team gives a rank to their own players S AAA AA A Does the rank impact the pairings ? EDIT: YES here are all the rules of the league. Rules about rankings are at the bottom of the page https://tleague.jp/about-t/ - if I am correct, each team should have at least one ace (S...
  14. backhand rubber only for block/receive/fishing

    I play with SpinArt on BH Blocking is one of my (relative) strenghts. Its also very good for serve/receive. Very good for topspin as well I don't know how to fish but it should behave well.
  15. T League - Japan's New TT league

    Does anyone understand how is the order of matches decided ? strange for example to see Mizutani vs Yoshida in both matches 4 and 5
  16. Daily Table Tennis Chit Chat

    obviously he's not playing seriously at all though. He makes some silly mistakes. He's quite a few levels above me, but I am also working with coaches which are (way) better players than him. To give an idea, his personal best was a 1st round appearance in the national championship here in...

  19. T League - Japan's New TT league

    yes its normally for the big Sumo tournaments LOL its only for the 2 opening days (yesterday Men's and today Women's) it seems. Its a big show with music, lasers, J-pop, the big stars like Ai-chan commenting etc.... they showed a bit on TV. I regret not taking any tickets. I didn't know they...
  20. When to take the initiative during a push rally?

    Until very recently, against a short push, i liked to push/play it short again because i feel confident doing this, but against the better players, i feel overconfident, but at this little game, it happens too often that my short push pops up giving a penalty to the opponent. I'm not good at...
