It's unfortunate.

I don't mind the losing but I hate it when he looks like this.

Yes. But I saw LGY vs Harimoto at the China Open. I didn't need to see more than that.

Yeah. Even with that, Harimoto vs Ma Long is not worth watching other than to see where Harimoto is compared to the GOAT.

Timo plays with so much spin - Karlsson is frustrated that his smashes are going long.

LJK has the superior power but Jike has the superior brain - we shall see...

Ma Long gives him more time and good reason to spend quality time with Ai.

Zhang Jike still has one of the best chiquita backhands in the world. So many points scored on serve return...

That love may not conquer all when he plays Ma Long in a few minutes!

Those seeded players are so lucky....

The Jeoung Youngsik - Yu Ziyang match is the one I want. Then I go back to bed.

This video is from the China Open so it is a little old, but I love the wisdom in it and would like to keep it for here. I think above all, it shows how honest a person Zhang Jike is when assessing his table tennis. It was a discussion of his loss to Harimoto.

It's also a thread for fan girls, so you should say it is a thread for fans. If you understand that both men and women post here, you may appreciate the scope of the thread more and be a little more open. Just take what you like and leave the rest.

Well played. I would like a Harimoto rematch.

I think it is game plan related for the specific opponent - lots of short balls, mostly to the forehand side. I think they have realized that these kids are too fast for Zhang Jike if they have too many angles into his forehand so they want to reduce that by keeping it on Zhang Jike's backhand...

So far so good. I am pleasantly surprised.

I hope you are right. 50 % is generous to me after seeing Harimoto and what LYJ did to Fang Bo and Apolonia.

Does ZJK have a chance vs LYJ?

The problem is that posting these questions in terms of faster loops shows that your playing experience is limited. It's the slower defensive shots or table craft shots that are the bigger concern for an advanced player. Use the fastest blade that you can consistently play all shots (including...

I used OFF+ blades and the argument against them is not that you can't get to 1500 in one year. It is that they don't let you feel the ball unless you have good touch and they don't encourage looping. And looping is the fastest way to get better at table tennis so you want something that...
