I prefer Aquarius, but Pocari sweat is almost the same :-)

another day, another defeat for ISHIKAWA against a Chinese player... 1-4 as usual... she lacks that extra bit of power... she was agressive and tried her best (risky) combos but too many errors, and after the 1st set the Chinese player could get back those attacks which became a bit too...

Kasumi ISHIKAWA now playing WANG Manyu, she got the first set but the Chinese girl is ahead in the 2nd Ishikawa lost the 2nd and 3rd set rather easily. in the 4th she was down 7-10 but saved two set points with style, WANG called Timeout, but Ishikawa made a strong 3rd attack that she had...

Hitomi SATO is facing a young Chinese player YUAN Xuejiao, and has a 3-0 lead. The first victory for Japan against China in this open ?

yeh its a "general" statement, and you should not take it to the letter. The point is, you should try to develop a strong game and focus about developing it. in your example, my mentality is to keep flicking that ball, because i don't want to win this training match, but i want to get better...

I was at the sports center again yesterday. I never saw it that crowded on a Thursday with many new faces. This sports center is getting way too popular. Also, maybe recent World Championships and Japan Open has given some new PR and a new boost to our sport here ? This time i didn't have...

it took LIANG Jingkun, HARIMOTO got a set and played very well.

bad news :-( worse, its in Fukuoka

where have you got this info about the Japan Open losing its status next year?

i didn't know that, now you say it, I do acknowledge her looks are not so Japanese.

and its all over 14-12 again in the 4th set, straight set victory for CHEN Ke. Its going to be tough for Japanese players against the Chinese..

well I had the match only on the background. The score shown by ITTF was wrong at the time. CHEN Ke is winning. She's got the 3 sets to 0 lead. The 3rd set was a 14-12 deuce where the Japanese had some chance to win this set. 4th set is deuce 11-11 now, HAMAMOTO was leading 8-3

she's a bit older, 20 I think. She is already a member of the JNT, i think she played at the World Team TT last year. Among the young Japanese, she is one of the more athletic, taller than the others. But she is not as consistent the the very best ones. Her strokes have the potential of being...

CHEN Ke vs HAMAMOTO Yui , the first of many China vs Japan encounters. HAMAMOTO took the first set.

KIHARA (the 12 yo wonder) lost only 3-4 to LEE Hoching !

in U21, Miyu KIHARA qualified for semis (to be played tomorrow). She is only 12, but already 162cm tall and a very gifted player !!!! remember her name !!!

I will be in the stadium watching and cheering on Saturday !

yep Harimoto is playing. All the Japanese stars are here. Most of them will be in China next week as well for the China Open !!!! Actually there are more Japanese players listed for the China Open than Chinese players !!!!

thats why you should not be an EJ.
