    Per @zeio, Sweden would sure love to have him. Vs Truls the troublemaker. He keeps the team harmonious vs Truls, who chafes and loses whenever as the best player he is placed in the #3 position as he has been twice... lol... joking....

    If Carey had pulled out thr 3rd match (lost deuce in the 5th), it would have been an upset.

    China got a fantastic draw. France awaits them in the semis. England, France and Korea with Korea in the quarters. While they will be getting a full Korea with Jang if they get to play again, they will also habe Wang. They can also build up some players with all the matches and rest Wang vs...

    It is generally not smart to estimate someone's ideal fat /muscle percentage based on just looking at them, especially when tendon strength and muscle mass are invisible. Most top athletes who are still into training do keep tabs on what weight they play best at. Also bigger athletes in TT are...

    The tiebreaker on matches won/lost Japan 3-0, Taiwan 3-1, Germany 3-2, so Germany is 3rd and you are right. So Japan 5-3, Germany 4-5, Taiwan, 3-4. 4-3 is better than 5-4 but I forgot that 4-5 is better than 3-4.

    France, Japan, Taiwan, Germany. Crazy how fortunes change in 24 hours lol. Though with China looking weaker, this is not as big a deal as it would have been. That two European teams topped both groups is fascinating...(lets forget conveniently that two European teams were also at the bottom...

    Great match. He couldn't finish it, but Togami, this is what happens when you can't finish the job after coming so close. It is better to lose easily so that your teammates are ready lol.

    Strength is a bigger factor than being light. Strength doesnt necessarily mean bulk but it is more important to be strong than to be light for any athletic endeavor. Optimizing for the right balance between Strength and speed (and they are not unrelated) is key. Endurance is also a factor but...

    LGL and I don't agree on that one but he is a winner at TT so... for example look at Falck... sorry Karlsson... je did lose to Jarvis and has a rep but he beat Junsung Oh for a huge win. Then look at Dang eho looked like a Superman yesterday or Felix who was unplayable until he faced the...

    Armchair experts on physical conditioning always know how best everyone should look. Telling when someone else should lose weight is not about how easy or ideal it is for you, it is about having worked with others to optimize their conditioning and knowing the nuances of such subjects when...

    Wow I canf believe I actually want Togami to retire as well. He might be bringing back thr Olympics in full force. Looks like this is going to all fall on Sora lol..
