Iron-strong backhand from Kanak, and this against a Jorgic who himself has a much better backhand than his forehand. The first point of the match was one that came into focus... via the camera.

Sabine should not have lost here. Had she played more tactically, for one example by not playing her forehand serve from the backhand but from the middle of the table or even from her forehand corner with an outward spin, she would have had opportunities. But she can only learn from such...

It's true and not only for top 100 in the world but on all levels.

Well, if they give you a cross, you have to head it in, don't you?🤷‍♂️

The difference between Sabine and Luka is that Sabine learned to play table tennis before her move, while Luka is a better ping pong player. Something to think about.;)

That's right. He's extremely talented, but he lacks character and perseverance. It's not the first time we've noticed that.

He will be able to continue playing at the highest level for a while. If he really cannot produce cartilage, he has the same condition I had when I was 17. Medical diagnosis: formation of a joint mouse and inability to produce cartilage. I still wanted to reach the highest level at the age of...

It's incredible that Sabine managed to turn this around. Time and time again, she was caught out by long, fast balls on her forehand, which she was always too late and too short to reach. She managed to break free from the pressure after she finally started playing parallel balls with her...

Rectification, The Big Gauzy Show

Meanwhile, the Gauzy Show

In my opinion, Bernadette is not very good at playing against "material".

Hugo let it slip. It could have been 3-0. But that doesn't detract from Kanak's performance with a rock-solid BH block/counter.

Put me in that select group too...:LOL: I have to admit that MN is attractive, but apart from that, she is also a lefty, and as it happens, just about all left-handed people (women and men) always have an advantage with me.

Precisely because he is BH-oriented, his reaction time from BH > FH is just not fast enough. He does not have that problem when he goes from FH > BH, precisely because his reaction time/memory thinks that the next ball will go to his BH. Something I wrote about here years ago for the first time...

Sorry, but topspins wouldn't have helped much. DQ has once again made clear what I think has been going wrong since Tomo's youth. The parallel balls to Tomo's forehand flew around his ears and he just stood there watching. What a slow reaction time TH has! It's unbelievable how many points DQ...

Lefty's!:love:

At that time, every country you mention had its own ‘chouchou’, but now this is actually much less prevalent. Sweden has Truls, France has the brothers & Simon, Germany has Sabine & Annett, Romania has Bernadette, but that's about it. There is still a lot of emerging talent, but they still...

The quarter-finalists in the men's competition are known: And the woman:

They're not learning it!!!

No counter-loop but slap. Featuring Adriana...or Hugo....;)
