UP with this. Love of the game is its own reward but I love monetary reward just as much. Feel free to help fill up my piggy bank. :cool:

For ITTF, having Falck in the final proves that the ABS ball and the WR reform are beneficial changes.

2:7, 11:9...

You're welcome. I had no idea, either. I thought athletics and swimming would fare better with that level of sponsorships. At this AGM, I believe the board is considering about letting alcoholic companies in.

Same for Badminton. Other than a handful, namely football, golf, tennis, cricket, and darts, other sports have little prize money. https://www.bbc.com/sport/40300519

Prestige. Prize money for World Cup only.

ML went "ma de" after that slip.

There's one 10-minute interview with LSW, in which she goes more in-depth on flying solo in 2018. Really long. Will sub it later. Need a break.

LSW explained it in her interview.

Even worse, they can't go back on their words. Emphasis on WR and knock-out trials bite really hard now.

The XD title alone is enough for the team spot. The WS title puts her in a very strong position. CNT has had a tradition of whoever gets the WS title gets the Olympic singles spot. If nothing goes wrong in the next 1.5 years, it's pretty much set. LSW and DN will go for singles.

And JNT wonders what went wrong with the selections.

Proof that Mars is occupied by aliens.

I beat her so I'm the World Champion or at least worthy?

Game 6. 1:0(12:0), 2:0(13:0), 3:0(14:0), 3:1, 4:1, 4:2, CM serves to LSW's short BH again, 5:2, 5:3, 6:3, 7:3, 8:3, 8:4, 8:5, LSW takes a TO. 9:5, 9:6, 9:7, 9:8, 10:8, 10:9, 11:9!! LSW stood the pressure! Best WS final in years. 11:0 your teammates and nemeses in SF and F!! Once in a...

Game 5. CM still has problem handling LSW's hook serve to her middle. LSW OTOH has adapted to CM's kick serve to her BH. Ya, 5:0, 2 of them aces for LSW. 6:0, 7:0, 8:0, 9:0, 10:0, 11:0!!

Game 4. CM solves the problem by stepping around. LSW responds by pinpointing CM's short FH. 3:7, 6:7. CM takes a TO. LSW handles that receive at 5:7 really well there. Timely TO worked. 7:11.

Game 3. CM keeps pushing deep to LSW's BH to push her away, with the latter missing a lot there. LSW has adjusted by 5:5. 6:6, 7:7, 9:7. CM wavered after that let at 7:7. 10:7, 11:7. Very crucial for LSW.
