LIANG JingKun is the new superhero. He completed a complete turnaround against Calderano. His 3rd 4-3 win in this tournament. this guy is indestructible...
FZD v LJK is gonna be a titanic battle... the real final probably...
because what are Timo and Truls even doing here ?

Seems like a great turnout and atmosphere. Could have been even better if they hadn't inexplicably scheduled it for Thanksgiving weekend, an American holiday where many people who would have attended had family commitments which prevented them from coming. Also known as the worst weekend of the year for travelling. But wait, there's more. Moving from the inexplicable to the comical, the USATT scheduled of one of the biggest American table tennis tournaments (Joola North American Teams Championships) for this same weekend. Very funny.

calderano appeared poorely after winning 3 sets, I think the state of mind the main reason, when player reach 3-0 he should act like ma long, timo boll, they play the fourth set with powerful determination to end the game up... i know also that liangjingkun is so strong, but after 3-0 he was weaker than the time when started to win sets and fuel his confidence .. Chinese win again at mental strength

Fast backhand side spin flick, then go a little bit far from the table to play intense forehand spin

I missed this conversation. I don't think it is fair to Harimoto to say he hasn't improved in the last four years. People who watch him in doubles and mixed doubles will see the difference and the fire in his forehand.
Zeio brought up the fact that Harimoto's parents really hold him to high academic standards and refuse to let him just play table tennis. They want him to go to schools with top academic reputations and not just sports reputations.
As for the Dyjas match, just pivoting to loop long serves would have changed a lot. Besides that, he needs to get to a better mindset when playing lower ranked opposition that are playing well. He feels he is the one under pressure and doesn't feel the need to risk. But I suspect with time and perspective a lot of this will change though since school is still a priority, it might not be to anyone's near term satisfaction.The Following 2 Users Like NextLevel's Post:

If only there was a private recording or a stream of the Hugo - Liang and Mima - Wang matches. Those mediocre 6 minutes clips don't do them justice at all. Even if it is commentary in Chinese or another language I don't care

Gotta say I dig this look...
Reminiscent of boxing. Bringing some of that glamour to TT was a solid idea.

Harimoto played fantastic in this match as the finisher. Redemption for his struggles in singles. And I'm so happy that Hina Hayata can claim a silver or gold as well at these Championships!

Mima Hina made it ! they beat Chen/Qian 3-2 coming back from 1-2, and set up a revenge match in the final against Wang / Sun.
2 years ago they lost to them in semis, and there was a very controversial ball that changed the match flow.The Following 5 Users Like Takkyu_wa_inochi's Post:

@Shine I agree that Hina FH is currently maybe the most powerful in Women's TT. Unfortunately she's still a bit less consistent with it than the chinese and in other parts of the game too her consistency is slightly lower i think
