  1. ITTF Men's and Women's World Cup Macao 2025, 4/14-20

    Well it depends on the CNT prep level. But definitely no chance in hell Ito would beat WMY. So dealing with Kuai is a bit better though Kuai has likely been prepped since her last close encounter with Ito.

    When a coach tells you something, it is okay to ask questions but it is even better to try it out and just send the video or what the coach is asking for back. The coach is not so much trying to give you a final stroke as he is trying to give you exercises that might enhance your overall...

    You lose the point if the serve is legal. It is not a risk less challenge. You make it sound like one.

    Looks like Bruna's improved form is showing here, the match like the Duda match looks winnable.

    That's why I said his coach did him wrong. That is the coach's job, to tell the player what to do in between points. He speaks German so he didn't even have to do it in English.

    And even the one on match point. His coach deserted him - what is the point in speaking German if you can't remind your player to challenge on crucial points.

    He should have challenged the 9-10 serve. I would have.

    Come on, Duda! You are too old for moral victories! You aren't Miwa or Anette...

    From game 2, other than missing the long pushes, Duda has shown that this match is very winnable.

    Duda has a huge problem controlling certain kinds of lighter backspin balls. He doesn't seem to read the float ball well.

    However one may feel about Dima, he is probably the best non-CNT player to play against to prepare you for the power of a CNT player.

    Yeah - they have to learn the hard way.

    If only he had started the match the way he played game 3 lol...

    Just like you were saying that MLTT players like Kou Lei saying they were past their prime and MLTT is not a top league? Just kidding, but you get the point. Not everyone expresses themselves civilly but their opinion on people's playing levels is what it is.

    For the backhand, you are using the upper arm and extending too much thereby moving the elbow around. This is possible, but generally wrong in spin strokes. If you keep the upper arm/shoulder out of it and mostly use the lower arm to hit the ball with a fixed elbow position, your stroke will...

    Duda beat Dima in European Champs last year, so it isn't surprising, what I was surprised by was that Duda managed to come back with Dima (while aging) in clearly top form. But between German league and Asian Champs, Duda has challenged and beaten Dima enough times for it not to be a surprise...

    Not entirely sold this is the reason but in the end, Hugo needs to repair himself from his Olympics debacle. Still needs some short game solutions and close to the table altenratives to his step back and launch. Bruna is young and growing so I trust jumps in results a bit more. She had always...

    Truls holds the table, Gauzy is French so he has to be creative or he will feel like a traitor.

    She's been dating Hugo longer than this jump in form. Maybe it was a delayed effect.
