Ma Long will beat everyone 4-0 and make people shut up

Table 3 Eckholm vs Zhang Qiang. Is she from the CNT ? The Chinese had a 3-0 lead but now it’s 3-2 only and the Swedish is leading 7-3 in the 6th game !

Hi I can PM me when you are in Tokyo I usually play in Minato Sports Center near JR Tamachi station. If you have a good budget I suggest you visit UPTY and book a 1:1 lesson with Sakamoto an ex-pro JNT member www.upty.co.jp 8000 tens per hour but well worth it in my opinion

Nope I'm in Tokyo

I think people are underestimating the Japanese too quickly. Of course the Chinese team is very stronger and I think WMY SYS or CXT will even be stronger than the current CNT leaders. They all play like men. However the Japanese are talented and still young. I think it's too early to say Hirano...

Chen Ke is not the strongest of CNT player but she lost 0-4 to Hirano :p

went to a mini (chess-like) tournament (between the 'students' of a TT school). everybody had 4 matches/rounds in total. played first to a younger guy i never played before against. it was easier than I expected, a 3-0 sweep. Although his balls were spinny, he wasn't agressive enough, and i...

@Sali I think you are wrong Last week he won the Japan Top12 beating Harimoto 4-2 in the final. Everyone was here and it was a great performance

@NL The problem is there aren't any amateur clubs here. We all play in a public facility open to anyone. Groups of people from all Tokyo and beyond come here, even if they don't play in our local league. There is no membership, no club president or secretary. You just pay the entrance fee to the...

@NL I have not much problems playing with a weaker player. My problem is that often when I'm alone, other people are in groups and whether they're good or not, they just wanna play with people in their group even if they're an odd number of people and one is just waiting or watching....the...

Hi guys. Haven't been posting much lately. I lost a bit of motivation these times, a bit less time training, bad results in tournaments, caught a long lasting cold... But I slowly recovered and started running again and getting a little back in form If I try to reflect of my TT evolution in...

Niwa played magically one set only while Ma was a bit surprised... But it's impossible to play three sets like this... Still congratulations for saving the honour and take one set for the JNT. That's the best they could today

Well it was a massacre as usual in the women's final alas The Japanese doubles could just grab a set when the Chinese were already up 2-0 and let off the guard a bit. The Japanese really needed to win that double to hope to put some pressure on the Chinese. Ito Hayata had one win in some...

regarding 4. is it for FH or BH receive ?

I had lesson last Friday with my main coach I've been working for more than 1year with him, but he never saw me play in matches. So I showed him the vids from the Asian Veteran tournament... I think he realized how bad and hopeless I was (lol)... His 2 main advices when he saw the video: -...

Mizutani + Niwa already qualified by their ranking same for Ishikawa + Hirano They didn't play in the tournament

JNT selections for World Team 2018: Harimoto won 3-1 against Oshima in the Men's finals, Ito won 3-1 against Hayata in Ladies finals. Both are qualified.

not posting a new subject for this small piece of news so just posting here now its selection time for the JNT for the World Team Championships next year only one place in the team is awarded for the winner. whole results here (in Japanese)...

to answer another one of your posts (cannot find it) the funny expression that we hear a lot in TT at the amateur level in Japan is "ラッキ！！！" = LUCKY !!! which is how to celebrate a net or edge ball, or a stupid miss from the opponent .... It should come out heartfully with joy, but quickly...

usually 3-4 times, including a 1:1 1H session with a professional coach which always leave me exhausted. and I try to run once a week
