You're getting ahead of yourself here. I was going to write about it at the end of the event. I wrote that Hayata needed to achieve something that is unique/exclusive to her. She has yet to do so. OTOH, Hirano along with Harimoto have just achieved something that was last done half a century...

Same as last time. She has turned her focus to beating CNT players since 2023 (highest win rate against CNT players in 2022 and 2023 and against non-CNT players until early 2023), and she is the only one who has done as well as Harimoto in WT, beating 2 CNT players in 2024. The knee brace is...

Multipolar World of Table Tennis imminent? Can't wait for WTT to transition to MWTT. 2024/3/12 https://www.tabletennisdaily.com/forum/topics/wtt-singapore-smash-2024-3-7-3-17.33147/post-447452 2024/4/25 https://www.tabletennisdaily.com/forum/topics/world-cup-2024.33476/post-456079

當局者迷，旁觀者清/Lookers-on see most of the game. Seeing how LYJ got himself 2 ZPP (zero-point penalty) and CSY got herself 3, which cost her the WS at Paris 2024, I'm really surprised at how stubborn he was. If he indeed denied the TO, that's a sign he doesn't trust his coach. Either way, I think...

JTTA's selection criteria forced Hayata to be a freeloader here. Otherwise, she could qualify by WR instead. But either way, only 4 players could've been sent because a 5th player such as Sato (finalist of selection trial), Kihara or Nagasaki (5th and 6th in WR for JNT players) is capable of...

連插你都嫌嘥口水。 Here is a paper from 2007 by a former TPE player on a coach failing to call timeout in a similar situation (final of an international competition, leading 2-1 in games and going from 7:5 serving to 7:9, meltdown in G5). The reason? That coach had no clue when to call it when asked...

Both parents are former CNT players. Dad was a provincial player, where as mom was a national player and teammate of Deng Yaping, but retired after losing WS/WD/XD on the same day at WTTC 1995 Shanghai. Both siblings were born in Japan and gained citizenship around 2013/2014? when Harimoto...

Perhaps Harimoto did it on purpose to stimulate Togami and Shinozuka, particularly the former. Sister: I'm now the Asian Champ! Brother: If only I was born a female...

Another example from Hirano vs CIC at World Cup 2016. At 10:6 of G4, Hirano served a half-long first and then a long serve. Both failed to close out the match. Nakazawa/Wang Rui called a TO immediately. [url unfurl=false]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GDzIDKTDoms[/url] Also 3 examples from...

Hirano did that at 10:8 of G7 against Ito at Zennoh Cup Tokyo. Ito stepped around and hit a FH that clipped the corner edge. Hirano proceeded to lose 10:12 (3 H2H 1 in selection trials). Some may say the player is brave to serve long at the crucial moment, but it can also be an indication of...

For those unaware, ISEKI Seiko/Wei Qingquang is the coach. He should read my thread "The Art of Calling Timeout".

Yeah, they stick and don't go away readily. Look at Hirano between late 2017 and late 2021 and Ito between late 2021 and now.
