Rather, I think Calderano has stepped up. He added more variation to his serve to restrict Togami's flick (works wonderfully), stayed close to the table and tried to end the point as soon as possible rather than retreating to the mid-far range and rallying It's still the same uninspiring...

For a pips player, Sun's backhand is really similar to a normal inverted rubber's backhand

He deserved to have a day off tbh. Who saved CNT against Korea back in Busan and also had a perfect performance in that tournament?

tacky surface was meant for increasing spin. Now that the new ball has less spin and the overall playstyle require more forward hitting and speed, I think there's no need for such tackiness anymore

imo right now - Loki Rxton 1 - Yinhe Mercury 2 - Dhs PF4/PF4-50 (some shops do sell them below $5) - Sanwei T88 - Reactor Tornado V5 (haven't spend enough time with it) I had a bad experience with 729 Cross, too slow and spin-less even after speed glue (or boosting) Looking at this price...

I've seen some comments around weibo and baidu saying that "young chinese doesn't pay attention to table tennis as much as before" each time they discuss about CNT junior training compared to Japan and Taiwan. Seems like this problem is much more pronounced now that you mentioned.

bruh if Togami didn't lost himself at the 5th match China wouldn't have been able to win Chengdu 2022

compared to his seniors, WCQ only excels in 3rd & 5th ball attacks and is weaker in rallies. Furthermore this guy's FH and BH frame is much more chaotic thus in tense situation will be more prone to error

until Loki can make a rubber better than H3 lol

so I'm guessing Tasei also pick the draw back at Chengdu 2022 and the Asian games in Hangzhou right? he has a cursed hand lmao

China's line-up will probably be Wang Fan Ma per usual, but I wonder if Tasei will let Togami play for the sake of team match experience before the Olympics.

Kao's fh is weak so it's nice if Harimoto can capitalize on that. Regarding this match, the pressure on Matsushima is quite large since Shinozuka has a low chance of winning Lin

Aruna got food poisoning Togami got fever Dima lost his luggage at the airport this WTTC is full of mishap

it's funny that players who wore the new purple uniform all lost during the MSF and MF lol

I can understand that Shinozuka it's a lefty so he'll more likely to raise his left hand up but Ito... Nagasaki just can't do it, beside having a good backhand she's pretty average compare to the top JPN women

I can't help but worry for Shinozuka tbh. His specialty is serve set up for the 3rd ball attack, the rest in his skill set are pretty average. Against power-type players like Pitchford, Liang JK and Fan ZD he's helpless

Imagine being 24 and already have to live in the past

valuable lesson "in tense situation, focus on 1 point at a time" or to put it bluntly "I just have to play consistently and my opponent will make all the dumb mistakes". When I read around 5ch, twitter and youtube comments, I found it surprising that japanese fans were pretty lenient towards...

You're right, then I guess players have to practice predicting the wide FH to have a quicker side step. Harimoto exploited this weakness of Togami quite well, especially on that Hari-bauer point and the 9-10 in the 7th set

it looks like It's really interesting that in both the 6th and the 7th, Harimoto up his match/set points by pushing deep to Togami's BH, Liang JK did the same at Taiyuan to win. On the side, I've notice moments when one was stretch on the wide FH by the other. Instead of using a cross step to...
