Very good info above. One more thing. To execute deadly topspin consistently, train your legs regularly. The quadriceps are critical for the stability of your body in attack position and the power of your topspin. With strong legs you will learn and improvea lot more quickly. Do a lot of squats...

Imagine Harimoto winning Tokyo Olympic gold at the age of 17. But I rather see other Jap players grow up than a single-hand show of Harimoto. Passionate about TT

Persson changed to a completely different person after the 2nd game. Amazing touch and solid defence. Wong has the same problem as Wang Hao. Predictable attack. 9 out of 10 banan flicks go to Persson's BH side. Wong relies on his BH a lot which lacks power and placement. Hopefully Wong will...

Ops . . I just watched their games. How could I get it wrong!! Late night symptoms sorry Passionate about TT

Good analysis. I have to say there's still subtle style difference between CNT players. FZD and ML are amazing in short game and placement. Xu Xin, needless to say he is an artist. Xue Fei, very much a copy of Wang Hao. I forgot to mention Kiko Niwa. Such a risk taker. He takes more risk than...

These days the game usually goes like this: I serve short You banana flick to my BH I return it to your BH BH to BH rally . . . . . Feel like mens tt is being transformed to women's game. Mostly BH and close to table. The slower ball speed makes taking risk not worth it. So players try to...

It is probably easier to start with the following two areas: Service Service return Service Like Ma Lin said, you need to be able to use the same service motion to produce two different spins. You also need to use two different service motions to produce the same spin. This is called...

The question is about popularity of TT in your country. But I agree with you. I played table tennis back in China where it was hugely popular. Club opens until 11pm every day. Training runs everyday at low cost. Table tennis academy runs every summer. I still play table tennis in New Zealand...

It has been a very good year for WTTC. Lots of close match like 2:3 against top players. Some surprises like Ding Ning lost 0:3 and England won over Japan 3:0. So glad to see the rise of England and Brazil. But I feel that Hugo and Liam are just miles ahead of the 2nd best in their team. That...

I have family commitments too that's why I can't play competitively. It has become just a casual sport for me, sadly. In New Zealand where I live, TT is mainly played by Asian immigrants at the professional level. There are some homegrown talented players fortunately. Only school with kids...
