I actually think that's for lack of an answer to MI's versatility.

Yes. ZY looks utterly desparate while getting steamrolled in the third game. Mima Ito is playing out of this world for three consecutive games. Another level entirely.

If I may, FZD is short. But Mima Ito is tiny. I've sat next to her drinking coffee a while ago, and had to blink twice to realise I wasn't sitting next to a miniature doll replica but the real thing.

I noticed that too, and do not recall ever seeing a CNT player acting up that way before.

The deciding set in the men's doubles final is sublime, and with a thrilling finish.

The head size and shape. The composition; # layers, type (hardness, rigidity, resonation roperties, rebound properties), thickness, orientation, quality. The used glue, and the quality of the pressing/gluing process, ie the overall build quality.

It not being April 1 (sorry), with me having a hard time pitting shore scales against each other, I derived the relation between shores A and C and plotted that relation. The relation (if I derived correctly) is (or is approximately) is y = (x-27)/2+27 with x being the C shore value and y the...

Well, different people can apply wildly different notions of fairness. Some adhere to a notion in which the ordering of a fair tournament is such that the higher-level players are evenly distributed across the branches, so they are expected to encounter each other later rather than sooner...

Does a tournament a player withdraws from (be it conspiracy or injury) still count as a tournament that player has participated in? Does it matter of a player withdraws without having played, or withdraws after having at least played a competitive point at the table? My instinct tells me we're...

Persson’s flyswat was a BH thing. Douglas jumped for FH smashes.

“Desmond Douglas scissor jump”. It used to be famous, and I’ve sern it with my own eyes. Also: the Persson flyswat.

You either move forward and take it on the bounce, or at least on the rise; or you let it descend. I at least lose power and consistency pretty quickly if I hit Bh-balls not directly before my sternum.

Yes, heavy hangs the head that wears the crown.

What’s up with all these GGs? Girly Giggles?

How? There’s the table top, the table carriage (cladded, sometimes) obscuring the view, no? Or do you mean, read the oppo’s movement, momentum, orientation, balance, poise?

What is that? Is that like padel?

So you're saying everything is going down the drain because of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Paradox_of_Choice?

I was more comfortable with T05 than T80 by far, even though I liked T80 for some aspects of the game — the short game and acive blocks, mainly. However, counters, drives and loops didn't work for me at all with T80, especially brush loops. And since I'm an old fart, I'm playing totally...

Yes, it al starts with the basic notion that in fact there is such a thing as society.

I don't know about the 301, but like it my custom blade is also a 7-layer composite blade, with the composite material next to the core. It's damaged and making a trip across Europe for repair, so I'm playing with my backup blade, the Treiber K, now. And boy do I notice that the ALC layer gets...
