LGL tried the skinhead at Sydney 2000. Didn't work against Waldner.

Big eyes JYS went for the skinhead at Asian Game 2018. Didn't work either.

Same fate for skinhead Oshima.

Verdict: Table Tennis is not Track & Field(or Swimming or Cycling).

In this case I think it is stupidity. How many Times Oshima served to Stefan BH and the trying to finisz with Fh from bh side - each time in decider, and how many points did he get - none. Why not to change the serve???
The same happened with Person against samsonov, Vladi used the head and put all balls to deep persons bh and he was trying to play tchem all with FH - how stupid.

Takkyu_wa-inochi Thanks for responding!

I think Doo and Zhang can go either way.

CXT seems to have a terrible record against defenders even though I like her style of play. But yes sure, can go either way too.

Actually, I think you are right about Ando Minami. She has done pretty well so far and Cheng I-Ching not so great lately!
