    The pointa From 10-8 to 11-10 in that Game 2 will enter the table tennis strategy books for all time placement kessons.
  2. ITTF Men's and Women's World Cup Macao 2026, 3/30-4/5

    Whenever I watch Hugo play WCQ, why do I feel they are playing different sports on so many points? Hugo is playing tennis while Wang is playing table tennis? Good luck to Sora and Wang and may the best player on this day win!

    The final is going to be a battle whoever plays. Wang vs Sora is going to bring out the fangirls, I wouldn't be surprised if they use flash photography on Sora to make sure their man brings it home.

    Don't agree with a lot of this, but in any case, everyone has a right to their opinions, even distorted ones. Enjoy!

    Shin is clearly good at singles. It will be interesting to see the countermeasures.
  6. Sabine Winter switches to antispin

    No reminders from @pongfugrasshopper required for this one, lol!

    Tiebans will just say Wang is losing to prevent Winter from entering the top 10 or something like that. Shin can do it, but Wang has to have a down day. Shin actually has a better chance against Sun than Wang to me, because Wang's backhand is harder to penetrate and Shin has the backhand game to...

    No one sees spin like Sun Yingsha - Wang Yidi can't play like this even if she wanted to.
  9. ITTF Men's and Women's World Cup Macao 2026, 3/30-4/5

    I don't, I know Ayhika Mukherjee did once, but unless you can pressure her backhand, Sun Yingsha is unbeatable.

    The World Cup is becoming more exciting than the World Championships. Never thought I would say that.

    The mimicry can be important, but how it is done effectively can be naively overstated, especially on the men's side, as coach Qiu (Dang's father) said once, you cannot find anyone to play like Harimoto or Hugo who would not already be on the Chinese national team lol.
  12. ITTF Men's and Women's World Cup Macao 2026, 3/30-4/5

    Not necessarily, points stay in rotation for a year and there is no singles WTTC so if Sora and LYJ split the Champions and slams for the rest of the year and shut out WCQ, it is a possibility. But just a possibility, something I can only imagine if WCQ is injured, he is playing a tournament...
  13. Run-in between Pro A Clubs and FFTT?

    It clearly isn’t the kind of decision that should be taken purely by a Federation in a democratic country. Given there are club owners as stakeholders, they should have been included as stakeholders and sold on the decision before the decision announcement was made.

    We are back to this lol. So Alexis makes the QF and beat the guy that Duda lost to deuce in the 5th and your argument is that because Alexis lost 4-0 to Calderano, Duda is now somehow elevated by Alexis's loss? You sure like to debate lost positions. Duda should have been the one playing...

    Any finals is possible for sure. I do think WCQ has worked out how to play people who back off like Hugo so it will be interesting to see whether Hugo can regain that first strike form from last year. It will also be interesting to see whether Sora returns Lin's serve better, he did a...
  16. ITTF Men's and Women's World Cup Macao 2026, 3/30-4/5

    Sora has never beaten Lin. Jist saying.
  17. ITTF Men's and Women's World Cup Macao 2026, 3/30-4/5

    For all Alexis's physical talent, there is only one Hugo.
  18. ITTF Men's and Women's World Cup Macao 2026, 3/30-4/5

    Nah no way she csn get exhausted in China. Not Wang Manyu. You will carry her off on a stretcher first.
  19. ITTF Men's and Women's World Cup Macao 2026, 3/30-4/5

    Fundamentally it is about playing level and style. He has gotten better at selecting and taking risks and his control is off the charts.
  20. ITTF Men's and Women's World Cup Macao 2026, 3/30-4/5

    Ma Lin and Wang Hao are now the same video game character with different avatars lol. Loudest fans in the hall...
