loved the timing of these events, so much good action to watch. epic womens final in Taiyuan and great performance from LJK. excited for Hugo!
TBH, not many players can handle those slow spinny low ball of LJK. But Alexis might handle it particularly badlyThey gave Alexis one game to show them that he had something new. After that, they deployed the usual low risk let him hang him himself tactics that have worked against him on the past and which worked pretty well once again. There is a general reason Lebrun plays well against Asians and fast players.
Hey, I will be the first to remind everyone who thinks Gauzy should play over Alexis for Olympics singles that Alexis is the better player with the higher ceiling. But he needs to improve his risk taking and shot selection sometimes. In this case though, he was playing a better player so it didn't matter.TBH, not many players can handle those slow spinny low ball of LJK. But Alexis might handle it particularly badly
Alexis has a tendency to snap his wrist when trying to counter those spinny loops, which is error prone since it's hard to control your bat angle. When he changed to block he couldn't judge the landing point well thus taking the ball high and sending it off the edgeTBH, not many players can handle those slow spinny low ball of LJK.

IMO Chen Xingtong deserves the Olympic P card and all the opportunities that have been given to Wang Yidi. I think she's 100% against JNT this cycle and only lost to Ito once last cycle?Wang Yidi manages to lose XD, WD and WS all at one event. A notorious triple but a triple that it is better to have achieved than to never have been there at all.
If Chen is retiring soon from CNT, a great way to go out.
CXT has squandered her share of opportunities.IMO Chen Xingtong deserves the Olympic P card and all the opportunities that have been given to Wang Yidi. I think she's 100% against JNT this cycle and only lost to Ito once last cycle?
