You waste more than enough of it. Others can read what you wrote and see whether your comparison of Ito and Hayata to the situation with Moregardh has any merit (a world in which two players are one is a weird one). In fact, if Sweden had more players performing at the level of Moregardh, a...

Where are the articles on what Ito and Hayata did? You usually dont make such statements without linking to yourself.. I don't remember any reports of national team players or the JTTA having major issues with Ito or Hayata in a systematic way.

The brilliant performance of Sora Matsushima?

Fun match to watch. but when you need to rely on Carlos vs Kai to win your title, then you know you are in trouble. One team survived it though. If Hampus had been around, this would likely have been no contest - but maybe the overdog pressure would have gotten to him...

I am sure they are happy they won today, but they really should have won yesterday as well, something went really wrong for them, probably the women's match yesterday was impossibly difficult to overcome.

First 2 out of 4 advance. If you are the A player, you have to play bad or get unlucky with the other players in the group not to go through. But I was the B player twice and failed to advance, and was the A player once but lost to an underrated D player, who I probably should still have...

So I have always been up to something but it has hardly been table tennis. Lots of raw middle age life lessons being learned the hard way. But not going to delve too deeply into them here, this is table tennis lol. I played a tournament today. MY expectations going in were really now, I have...

Because you are focused on the level of the player, not the nature of the problem. Many players in table tennis retain the same kinds of strengths and weaknesses at every level they have played, they just get good enough that it takes a stronger level of player to expose them. Think of Sun...

Odo and Wang are more similar than different, a lot comes down to experience playing against such players, ability to read differences in spin and the ability to control the spin you generate so it doesn't overwhelm you when the ball is returned by the pips.

Compliment the World #1 on his serve and I will tell you the same thing, though he has actually survived TTR, Yoshimura needs to be tested....

Beautifully hidden too...

I know you are a good man, I am guilty of similar things. But I have had people ask me where the unknown Sidorenko came out of to start beating top players. Of course his situation is different, and your main point is still 100% correct. You just never know how literally some of these things...

It's a good idea but there are no free lunches in table tennis. If you think you need a bit more speed, then it is a good idea. You will also lose some control but for a faster blade, the Viscaria Super ALC is as close to the Viscaria as one can get and the control is decent. It will feel...

No, he wasn't an absolute unknown player. The essence of your point stands since he didn't have a high senior ranking but An was Korean junior national team. Anyone on the national team of a top table tennis country is not an absolute unknown. Let's not join the likes of those who call Idesawa...

They probably had internal trials for the last two spots and those guys you never heard of probably won. That's my best guess, but we might hear better information. BTW, haven't seen Junsung in a while...

Thanks for a correction, though it is helpful to cite direct sources since reading links to your posts bogs down the process and leads to having to deal with other things that are far less reliable such as your opinions. Nothing you have written affects the essence of my post, Odo is not going...

Joo has to have a date when here eligibility kicks in, if she did it agrer she was 18, then it is morr than 10 years but i didn't know whether she was eligible for ITTF but she might be eligible for the Olympics earlier. No one is taking on China except Japan, even 3 Shin Yubins would lose to...

Haven't seen the current team but they were Olympic bronze medallists. Shin, Joo Cheonchui, and Kim Nayeong can compete with anyone. Lee Eunhye can be tough as well and there are some other talents. I think saying it is all on Shin goes too far.

Liang Jingkun was losing to other juniors around when he was Liang Jingkunxs age. Wen has time to improve if his age is what it is as no one builds out players like the CNT does.
