In Asia, you dun call 23 midnight, and 21 is just the time when drinking gets started [emoji4] Most of TT clubs I have been in several countries in Asia, its very normal that ppl play till 22. Therefore, CNT training till 21 is very much appropriate for our life style [emoji4]

I know that midnight is 24. What does mean 'drinking gets started'? Here we are drinking permanently

I just thought that CNT schedule is based on the ideal sleeping needs of the body and mind.

Again, "ideal" in what standard? Chinese, Korean, Japanese standard may be called "suicide" in Western one.

Btw, drinking permanently (did u mean all day long?) is probably "suicide" for those above countries. But it is nice to hear that though, I am a drinking addict =))

What you talking about Dr. Brice???

We drink water over there. Yeah, it is a considerable amount, but what the heck. Summer and long hours of TT get you thirsty.

Sometimes you gotta start the drinking a little early while still at the TT hall.

Not entirely sure when this video was but I think it's a recent video of the Women CNT

haha William, you know what I was talking abt. Drinking means alcohol, not water.

Btw, you were the one teaching me having beer before and during training, remember?

Correct me if I am wrong. The video seems to be prior to 2016 because no one wears t-shirts with newer design for Rio and quite a few wears London jerseys.
CNT players pick up t-shirts/jerseys randomly although they do have some color preferences. If the video is this year, it is rare that no one picks up the tee/jersey of newer design. In the photo of post#21, Xu Xin and Zhang Jike's shirts are with Rio design. Below is a photo taken in early Jan this year. Funny that Yan An picks the same shirt again.

What training? We musta chugged down 3 cans each (if you didn't pour it on the ground when I was cans up) right before the start of some matches. You knocked down a few bottles yourself AFTER the TT, and yeah, those bottles were 2000cc, yeah, I helped you a little to finish 3 or so of those.

Anyone want to guess who the main challengers of China are? This would be a good competition if some one had the answers - the top 7 are fairly easy. But it gets more difficult from then on. I think there are 34 players and I can guess with certainty about 29, maybe 30 - the last 4 or 5 are iffy.

I will post my list early tomorrow.

rainneverever · Apr 21, 2017

For the ones you are not sure about, can you guess from their natioanl flags?

Liu Guoliang posted a clear photo of the rivals' photo wall. The coach assignment of men's team is not revealed yet. Most likely Wang Hao coaches Fan Zhendong and Liu Guozheng coaches Zhang Jike, seen in photos of multi-ball training.

Good. I can see everyone now. 2.5 is LSS, 2.7 is JWJ, 3.1 and 3.2 should be flipped, and I am still amazed that Tristan Flore is on the board, though he did beat Boll and Freitas and challenged Ma Long in one tournament.
