Hardly any sane person in China has the disposable income for a seat price that ridiculously high. Wtt这票价变脸还是有点快 (WTT really changed its tune on ticket prices pretty quickly) https://tieba.baidu.com/p/11088121473

MS QF Moregard (4) 0-4 LYJ (5) (-7, -9, -9, -7) G2 86, 88, 98, 911 LYJ's feint fade push to Moregard's wide FH at 9:9 of G2 showed why Moregard's creativity is useless against players more comprehensive than him. G3 41, 42, 52, 53, 63 54 sideline edge for Moregard challenged successfully by LYJ...

Jokes aside, Felix said he just recovered from an injury, so that's a factor. https://www.tabletennisdaily.com/forum/topics/wtt-champions-chongqing-2024.34066/post-462118 Félix Lebrun gives injury update after battling past Flavien Coton at China Smash🏓🇫🇷 [url...

JTTA needs to give Harimoto/Hashimoto another try and Harimoto/Sato as well as Hashimoto/Sato a try. This rigidity is getting them nowhere. If finishing as the finalists only is their goal, then Kihara/Nagasaki have done way better than Harimoto/Hayata.

WD F Hayata/Harimoto (1) 1-3 KM/WMY (2) (-11, -2, 9, -7) G1 01, 51, 56, 57 Harimoto faulted for not vertical (35.47), 510 nine in a row, 910 TO for CHN, 1110, 1113 Hayata, the Weakest Link, failed to be reined in by Harimoto. It's been a 鵰娜馬 decade and she still hits too hard when it counts. G2...

No need for officiating then. Players will just take advantage of the "honor system" by luring the umpire into 2 incorrect calls. https://documents.ittf.sport/sites/default/files/public/2026-02/2026_Statutes_v1_consolidated_tc.pdf

WTT: In or out, your take? Table tennis English teacher Hashimoto: You dumb dumb? (While the China Smash tournament employs a video review system (TTR) on the main court, the match Hashimoto played took place on a different court. In a joint Instagram post with WTT, the tournament shared...

Hashimoto gave a similar post-match analysis. https://www.tabletennisdaily.com/forum/topics/nagasaki-ive-never-liked-table-tennis-that-much-to-begin-with-1169.35128/post-591468

WS QF Harimoto (3) 4-2 YD (5) (-9, -9, 6, 5, 9, 9) Those crucial edges in late G5 and late G6 couldn't have come at a better time for Harimoto.

I also expected that at first back in 2022, but that's not been the case so far for Hashimoto. Same for Sato.

Basically, CXT's game plan is to keep the point going by pushing until a loose ball appears. OTOH, due to the fear/worry of the expedite rule triggering in the back of her mind, Hashimoto is forced to take risks to attack more readily, leading to way more errors. Sato will suffer the same...

Hashimoto is getting countered and she is not as patient as she used to be last year.

Doesn't look good when Hayata keeps going back and forth on her physical conditions and now complains about playing too many games, as if she didn't think about the potential strain with signing up for 2 events. 早田ひな 長﨑美柚を下して初戦突破「パフォーマンスは70％ぐらい」張本美和とのダブルスでは成長求める【卓球 チャイナスマッシュ】 (Hayata Hina wins...

As Wolf11 mentioned over at TT-NEWS, 2 of her 4 defeats recently happened before her herniated disc. It's clear players have caught on and made things harder for Winter and how she will drop to WR20. Getting injured again should be regarded as a warning sign of players forcing her to take...
