  1. WTT Singapore Smash 2025 (30 Jan ~ 9 Feb 2025)

    Barely still in his prime Jang Woojin battling spring chicken Chen Yuanyu... Not sure how Lily pulled off that one... Lee looked very different from her last match....
  2. WTT Singapore Smash 2025 (30 Jan ~ 9 Feb 2025)

    Way over the hill Wong Chun Ting (33) still doing what he can in doubles...
  3. UFO shot (ie BH topspin with FH side rubber)

    One of my late coaches Enoch Green, who was.a 2300 chopper from Philly, used to play around with this again lot and did it. Enabled him to backhand topspin with long pips on the other side for chopping. He practiced it so much I am sure there has to be video of him doing it. He used it in...
  4. WTT Singapore Smash 2025 (30 Jan ~ 9 Feb 2025)

    You can't really draw the #32 - seeds are only up to 16, and Groth at 16 even lost to unseeded An Jaehyun - I hear you but Grand Smash draws are very tough by round of 32, and in prelims, you may get lucky with an occasional Oceania or American matchup but even those are no longer as easy as...
  5. WTT Singapore Smash 2025 (30 Jan ~ 9 Feb 2025)

    He is a lower seed, he is supposed to get at most one easy round, you make it sound like he is supposed to be playing as the #1 seed.
  6. WTT Singapore Smash 2025 (30 Jan ~ 9 Feb 2025)

    It's just a quality and speed of play thing. Happens at all levels of TT. You would hope that she can develop more weapons but without being increasingly challenged and adapting, at a certain level you are who you are and adaptation might not help that much. And weirdly enough, there is no...
  7. WTT Singapore Smash 2025 (30 Jan ~ 9 Feb 2025)

    What list are you looking at? This is the list you posted. If Nikhil beat Dima, you know something I don't.
  8. WTT Singapore Smash 2025 (30 Jan ~ 9 Feb 2025)

    Those are all legit 2800+ players.
  9. WTT Singapore Smash 2025 (30 Jan ~ 9 Feb 2025)

    No, seriously, MLTT is for over the hill players. These guys are 2800 and young, they should be going to more serious leagues like CSL, Jia A, T-League, Bundesliga, Polish League etc. They must be over the hill otherwise or looking to be over the hill...
  10. WTT Singapore Smash 2025 (30 Jan ~ 9 Feb 2025)

    Some players will never beat Dima even in their best form.
  11. WTT Singapore Smash 2025 (30 Jan ~ 9 Feb 2025)

    Okay. It is good they are coming to MLTT then. IT will send them over the hill.
  12. WTT Singapore Smash 2025 (30 Jan ~ 9 Feb 2025)

    It was 2-2, 8-8... the last 3 points all sucked...
  13. WTT Singapore Smash 2025 (30 Jan ~ 9 Feb 2025)

    He believes USATT 2800 is a joke. That's all.
  14. WTT Singapore Smash 2025 (30 Jan ~ 9 Feb 2025)

    Civil wars on tour, no coaches - interesting things happen...
  15. WTT Singapore Smash 2025 (30 Jan ~ 9 Feb 2025)

    A reminder of what happened the last time the over the hill Pitchford faced the top German in the TTBL on tour: Just for reference.
  16. WTT Singapore Smash 2025 (30 Jan ~ 9 Feb 2025)

    36 year old Quadri beats 18 year old Junsung Oh 3-1. Oh well...
  17. WTT Singapore Smash 2025 (30 Jan ~ 9 Feb 2025)

    Beating even Kou Lei takes work. Ma Jinbao is top 100 WTT and even he doesn't beat Kou Lei without a problem.
  18. WTT Singapore Smash 2025 (30 Jan ~ 9 Feb 2025)

    Over the hill Quadri Aruna (36) vs Spring chicken Junsung Oh (18) - this will be interesting for sure... or maybe not...
  19. WTT Singapore Smash 2025 (30 Jan ~ 9 Feb 2025)

    Even Australia is bringing its civil wars to WTT...
  20. WTT Singapore Smash 2025 (30 Jan ~ 9 Feb 2025)

    Way, way over the hill MLTT Star (redundant to call an MLTT Star over the hill according to many) Mo Zhang (36) currently up 2-0 (now 2-1) on in her prime Orawan Paranang. I guess MLTT plays only 3 games to accommodate all the players past their primes. EDIT: MO wins 11-9 in the 5th. Oh well...
